    Default Nate Silver: No Strong Evidence Russian Hacking, Disinformation Swung 2016 Election

    The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming!That is what most of the media want you to believe about the 2020 election.

    This explains the recent spate of reports about the Russians attempting to hack the results of the upcoming election just as they supposedly did with the 2016 election despite no solid proof. And among those who saw no real proof of Russian influence on the 2016 election is someone who is among the ones most steeped in the electoral facts of that election, Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight.

    Bloomberg is paying Facebook $1 million a month on ads!!!

    How much did the supposed Russians pay on Facebook ads? $55,000? LOL

    Another one, beautiful

    First off, tell us, now does one measure if TV advertising effects an election? how do we know if a key endorsement swayed an election? if a particular debate performance had any effect? How do measure the effects of any of those or other relevant variables on an election?

    And as for 2020, how can it be "disinformation" when Trump's own people are reporting it? no Obama, no Comey, no Hillary, no McCabe, no lovers exchanging Emails, no "deep state," but Trump's own people, his appointee, Trump's intelligence services telling Congress?

    And yet you still watch mainstream news outlets that were just as wrong if not worse. LOL you really lack self awareness. Typical liberal. Spoiled little brats that have no clue without some authority to tell them what to think

    Did any liberal pollsters actually predict Trump's victory in '16?

    If you go back you will find that the majority of pollsters didn't predict anyone, in fact, they predicted a close election, which it was, a seventy thousand vote swing among three swing States and the election would have went the other way

    Are you aware of how Silver (supposedly) went down in flames in '16? (not a rhetorical question)

    Isn't you position a double negative?

    And I already showed you that what you want is unmeasurable, even gave you three easy examples, but to put it in a way you can understand, Hillary's Emails were nearly a nightly item on all the Fox demogogues shows, they used them by design to portray Hillary as public enemy number one, and we all know where the Emails came from don't we
