This forum is so disappointing now. I remember how smart it used to be, before this vile infestation of trolls, bots and to use Trumpspeak, losers.


Ugh. Totally agree. Go over to the non-Trump threads and you'll find some of the old normal back and forth. This forum has been filled with Trump Trolls for a while now. I wish Jeff would block them. But the Russian trolls know how to hide their tracks pretty well.


Is this kind of a microcosm of what McCarthyism was like? Anyone who opposed the CW or dared to suggest Russians weren't the ultimate Big Bad was immediately accused of being Russian or Russian sympathizers? Right? This feels like a silly version of that.


Just one request: If I am to be condemned as a Russian spy, can you at least please remember me in your mind's eye as looking similar to Keri Russell or Angelina Jolie in Salt? I promise you that I look like a mix between the two of them. (The Russians only pick sexy ladies to do their important espionage.)

Nope. Trumpers are just dumb.
