Strange that Russia would back Trump whom is aligned with alt-right (and fascism)
The sad thing is that US for profit media, education cuts and partisan politics, you have a large base of americans subjected to this for years. Then you have Russians (along with Trump) seeing this and stepping in to take advantage of this.
Iam wondering what the total amount Russia has spent for ads and troll farms total for Trump. The problem is probably the Delporables seeing these trolls, then believing and spreading the disinformation. Because this was found that this type of dis-information dosnt work on Democrats whom consume the Main Stream Media. That why Republicans voters were targeted, been conditioned for nearly eight years.

Twitter finds 201 accounts tied to Russian agents who posted political ads on Facebook
SAN FRANCISCO — Twitter said Thursday that it had shut down 201 accounts that were tied to the same Russian operatives who posted thousands of political ads on Facebook, but the effort frustrated lawmakers who said the problem is far broader than the company appeared to know.
The company said it also found three accounts from the news site RT — which Twitter linked to the Kremlin — that spent $274,100 in ads on its platform in 2016.
Despite the disclosures, Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-Va.) questioned whether the company is doing enough to stop Russian operatives from using its platform to spread disinformation and division in U.S. society.
Warner said Twitter’s presentation to a closed-door meeting of Senate Intelligence Committee staffers Thursday morning was “deeply disappointing” and “inadequate on almost every level.” Twitter also made a presentation to House Intelligence Committee staffers in the afternoon.
The Washington Post reported this week that some of the 3,000 Facebook ads bought by Russian operatives promoted African American rights groups, including Black Lives Matter. Those ads were targeted at users in specific locations such as Ferguson, Mo., and Baltimore, two cities that have faced violent protests over police shootings of black men. Ads aimed at voters in other regions, meanwhile, suggested that the same groups posed a rising political threat.
Other ads featured Muslims supporting Democrat Hillary Clinton for president and were targeted at Facebook users who might fear Muslims.
The Twitter accounts, which were taken down over the past month, were associated with 470 accounts and pages that Facebook this month said came from the Internet Research Agency, a Russia-connected troll farm.
