You know the expression "Where's there's smoke, there's fire?" Yeah, that doesn't quite capture what's going on with the Trump administration. It implies that there could be any doubt about the existence of said fire. Like it presupposes a situation where you see a lot of smoke and you think to yourself, "What the hell is going on there?" A more accurate expression for the Trump administration would be, "You know that giant fire that's the size of multiple city blocks? Where there's one of those, there's a fire." Is it redundant? Maybe. Is it obvious? Yes. But that's why it's the perfect for Donald Trump and company. Their corruption has been so obvious that you must repeat yourself to talk about it. The latest scandal to rock the most scandalous administration in over a century has top Trump campaign staffers pushing Russian propaganda in the days leading up to the 2016 election.

The propaganda originated from the now-defunct, but then-popular Twitter account @Ten_GOP. The account claimed to be representing a group of Tennessee Republicans, but this week it's been revealed that in reality it was a run by a group backed by the Russian government to spread disinformation. But according to The Daily Beast, many in Trump world seemed to be huge fans of the account.

Two days before election day, Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway tweeted a post by @Ten_GOP regarding Hillary Clinton’s email. “Mother of jailed sailor: 'Hold Hillary to same standards as my son on Classified info' #hillarysemail #WeinerGate” the tweet reads. ... President Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. followed the account until its closure on August 23rd of this year. Trump Jr. retweeted the account three times, including an allegation of voter fraud in Florida one week before the election. “BREAKING: #VoterFraud by counting tens of thousands of ineligible mail in Hillary votes being reported in Broward County, Florida Please, RT,” the tweet read.

Am I saying that they were absolutely, positively aware they were sharing Russian propaganda? No. Twitter is a place where you can never be positive about who the people you're talking to actually are. But, we do know that this is a campaign that had many, many on the quiet meetings with Russian officials. We know this is a campaign that was aware that the Kremlin was actively trying to help them win.

So I don't think it's totally unfair to say that there's a possibility that this was knowingly done. Why should we give this group of all groups the benefit of the doubt? What have they done to deserve that? Is it the way they've constantly lied about their meetings with Russia, only to change their stories as soon as they're caught? Or is it the way they refuse to criticize Russia while feeling totally fine criticizing the American media at every turn?
