I knew, because I regularly talked to people like @MalcolmNance @sarahkendzior @NaveedAJamali @mashagessen @tonyschwartz @DavidCayJ @TimOBrien and many more who knew what Trump was and what he aspires to be. Oh and @HillaryClinton knew. And she tried to tell y’all. https://twitter.com/davidmweissman/status/1278311462189105155

But far too many people either took a light view of Russia or of Trump himself or decided they didn’t like either candidate so why not take a chance on him or toss their votes to Jill Stein. But people knew. My uncle, who lived under Mobutu in Congo knew. He saw Mobutu in Trump.

I was blessed to interview the great Wayne Barrett before he died, and he knew. Magazine editors at The Economist warned Americans not to hand this country over to Trump because they knew. So many people knew it could and would be this bad, and were called paranoid or absurd.

Donald Trump was aligned with the so-called “alt right” (white nationalists!) and Russia WHILE HE WAS RUNNING. David Duke endorsed him. Russia helped him. He had five “billionaire” bankruptcies to testify to his level of competence. Anyone who didn’t know, didn’t want to know.
