Claims Circulate That GOP Is a Russian Asset
Original: It is not as if this wasn't obvious but it is gratifying to have confimation # GOPisARussianAsset # USpolitics
Commenters in US political discussions are asserting that the Republican Party has been confirmed to be acting as a Russian asset, saying the conclusion was obvious and that new confirmation is gratifying. The claim is being shared with hashtags linking it to US politics debates, though no specific new report or evidence is identified in the posts themselves.
Why now: People are reacting to what they see as confirmation of long-standing suspicions about Republican ties to Russia.
