Turns out to be deeper and older than Trump.

tl;dr: McCain’s 2008 campaign had a significant Russia faction. They were
the ones who picked Sarah Palin for VP.

I guess that’s one way to say she was right all along.

Using anti-Trump disinformation to support a FOAF story? Well, they give-out
Pulitzers for less.

-TE

By far the best and most accurate reporting on all matters relating to Russiagate came not from the
liberal corporate outlets that want to censor the internet in the name of disinformation or which
shower themselves with Pulitzers for lies, but from the right-wing press.

OK, that group of Russians should've been taken out back and shot.

I remember where I was the day Palin was announced -- I was in the Las Vegas Greyhound station, getting ready to come back home from a little R&R. I saw that and had one thought:

"They threw in the towel."

This does not make the point you think it does, comrade.

Democrats’ fellow traveler: twice rejected for the party’s presidential
nomination.

Republicans’ fellow traveler: won the party’s presidential nomination twice
and is the favorite for a third time. And now we learn that a past GOP
nominee had a campaign riddled with them in positions of power.

And for this 'help' Trump paid back the Russians by being tougher on them
then Obama? Four-D chess?

As far as Trump-Russian conspiracy theories go I rate this one...
