There is no doubt in my mind that Democratic or progressive "purists" a la the DFA are either...

1. GOP/Russian plants/trolls, or
2. dumber than tRump

They clearly don't care that they are handing elections to the RWNJs on a silver platter, or that's exactly what they are seeking to do.

They induce my rage and disdain as much as any clown with an "R" beside their name.

We better wake up and smell the BS fast. Or there will be a whole other round of Russian Propaganda clobbering the shit out of us this next election.

exactly at the right time to interrupt the momentum of the campaign and the supposed promising results from early voting. When I heard yesterday that the early voting looked good, I have to admit my heart absolutely sank, because I felt that it was a setup for something bad to happen.

Russia is exploiting yet another division in our country for their own gain (our loss) and has infiltrated many groups, stoking outrage, and in some cases rising to leadership positions. This is one example of many, and we should call them out. The attack on our country continues until we stop it somehow.

On edit: DFA contains plants/trolls but does not entirely consist of them.
