They're discussing Russian misinformation campaigns that mislead voters so that they would vote for Trump. That's the illegitimacy they're discussing. Cambridge Analytica and other companies, funded by wealthy doners and PACS spread sophisticated misinformation that discouraged voting and lied about democrats and their policies. This is very different from what Trump's team tried to do, which was to claim that the voting was seriously rigged in the states where he lost. The illegitimacy discussed in those videos are NOT claiming that Russians rigged the voting machines. There are always voting irregularities, for many reasons. Twitter users should try to understand the difference between those 2016 concerns about the misinformation campaigns, which were widely investigated and well known, and what Trump's lawyers tried to prove about voting numbers in states where he lost. Indeed, Trump has spread misinformation and disinformation daily since 2016. He was never presidential in any of his activities. He was illegitimate in his campaign and his role as president, though no one doubts that he was elected.

The Russian misinformation accusations have been proven to have been false, this was in itself misinformation by the Democrats. Don't try to push tour delusions on me.

Just because you are incredibly bias towards Trump doesn't deter from the fact that he made Significant accomplishments during his yerm, and many of the challenges gaced were from Democratic cities with left wing ideology which were opposed to Trump.

The Russian misinformation accusations have been proven to have been false

The opposite. There has been substantial information on this since 2016. Russian disinformation is an OLD and developing problem. It's commonly known and easy to look up. Reconsider your sources. Or read:

And - no - Trump was only destructive during his term, and added $10 trillion to the national debt by giving the .01% tax breaks.

Oh do fuck off you paid shill. Nobody believes your lies. There was an investigation, Trump was cleared of any Russian interference. He was on the other hand victim to domestic interference such as the Twitter censorship of stories that could have affected the vote.

Even the major crooked newspapers have admitted that “Russian collusion” was a lie. Rachel Maddcow lost 30%of her viewers. At this point, maintaining the lie does nothing but discredit the liar, who is u/no_u.

We're not discussing direct collusion. We're discussing indirect collusion. Big difference.

This information war continues. We'll likely discuss it more often before the election, as we'll see more examples of this.

We literally watched in real time as democrats obstructed ballot observers, shipped in vanloads and suitcases of fake ballots after the polling was closed, covered windows to hide what ballot counters were doing, pulled hidden ballots from behind tablecloths, smuggle USB sticks around ballot counting machines, run stacks of ballots through ballot counter machines multiple times, alter, spoil, and destroy ballots on the counting floor... This is all on video.

If any of that was close to being accurate, the GOP would have been repeating all of that 24/7. None of that was reliable information.
