I don’t subscribe to the idea that Russia enables or participates in actual voter fraud. I’m not deep into the idea that they give any particular shit about either candidate. (I have only limited time for conspiracies). Rather that the Russians amplify the chaos and doubt in our process. Facebook is a gift created just for Putin.
Russians resell the idea that US democracy is a joke.
China won’t mind either if we look like a clown show.
Casting doubt in our institutions like the CDC would be right up their alley. But we have done a fine job without the assist.
When there are cracks in the edifice, then it’s easier to break things.
