Luckily I'm not gay so I can't be influenced by foreign trolls. The most MAGA thing you can do these days is be a foreign troll pretending to be American. That's patriotism right there. That's commitment.

More from the cited article ...
... "This is easily one of the greatest days on this platform," wrote Democratic influencer Harry Sisson.

Yup
We have our own self admitted Chinese Communist Spy right here in the drudge.
A very committed Chinese Communist Spy. Committed to disinformation and promoting lies, half truths and chaos and division in America any way he can.

@#2 ... Too funny. ...
I'm not going with "funny" for the nonce. For me, I'm more "concerned."
I view this as foreign adversaries using social media to propagate the "attack from within" end game.
In the past, I mentioned, and posted about, it as a tactic that Pres Putin, et al, seem to be using, often based upon some of the aliases I see participating here.

@#9 ... 'Dozens' reads the headline. ...
Which headline is your alias referring to?
I do not see the word "dozens" in either the headline here, or in the headline of the cited article.
