the Russian street speaks

“Hillary Clinton is an astoundingly thick concentration of all the evil in this world,” journalist Dmitry Olshansky wrote July 23 on Facebook. “Against that background, the simplicity, rude jokes and fun of (Trump) is like a fresh breeze.”

Hm.

“For Russia it’s better to have something new than the well-worn old,” said Konstantin Osokin, a music teacher. “We already know that (Clinton as secretary of State) led a policy of weakening Russia and creating a negative image. Trump is a businessman, so he is more pragmatic. Also he is a man.”

Sure, he’s a man.   Like the man you have in Russia.  But he hasn’t been photographed shirtless running around in the mountains.  At least not yet.  That we know of.

The National Enquirer is in the bag for Trump, so if such photographs come to light, they’d have to find some other outlet.  Wikileaks?

By comparison, Edward J. Snowden has been much more careful about how leaked documents were published. He recently criticized Mr. Assange, noting that WikiLeaks’ “hostility to even modest curation is a mistake.” […]

For many of those who know him well, Mr. Assange is afflicted by what the police call “noble cause corruption,” a belief that noble ends justify reckless or immoral means. In a world awash in new information — and misinformation — context, motivation and trust are crucial when weighing the importance of leaks and their accuracy. Mr. Assange still claims that WikiLeaks is a beacon of transparency. We should no longer take him at his word.

All of which I’ve just linked is just CIA propaganda to turn you against Trump, Russia, and Assange.  But such is the way of things…
