I watched part of it.......looks like they targeted groups they felt were vulnerable to "MAGA" again because they felt ignored, etc. What is wrong with that? One of the many times I saw Parscale on TV, he explained that that is what their data mining was doing and it also showed that it was having an effect to such an extent that their "polling" showed Trump would win a close one. Why can't they gather that info and use it to win an election by strategically using that info to target groups they feel would like to, for example, see a change from selling America to foreigners to America keeping more of its assets for its own advancement??? Why is this supposed to surprise me and make me angry like I would be when seeing a criminal commit a crime??? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

View Quote That is why they get special treatment by our society..........they can editorialize as long as they say that is where they are coming from but journalism should be going for the facts rather than bolstering an agenda at the expense of the true facts. But campaign workers are not the media and are expected to do what they can to get their ideology/message out to those they feel are most likely to accept them.

Holy shit the desperation in this thread. There just HAS to be a reason that Trump won , other than people voted for him. 48 hours ago nobody on this board knew who CA is, today they are the devious demons who unseated the anointed one and the booger eater. You guys should petition ARFCOM for your SSRI badges. View Quote |

Quoted: I guess they're trying to tie the whole thing back to their Russian boogeyman, from what I can tell, because this firm gave a presentation to a Russian oil company trying to get some business in 2014. It went no where and they have no tie to Russia other than a single presentation. This is some serious grasping at straws, unless someone can point out what I missed in the article. View Quote Remember that one of the main criticisms of the Romney campaign was how far behind they were in micro targeting voters vs the Obama campaign. Well, that problem was fixed by 2016 and the Cruz and Trump campaigns used the same firm as to not lag behind like Romney did knowing full well that Clinton was using the same apparatus that Obama used. |

On the macro level, this is just another play by the Left to undercut the Right's use of social media to get their message to the people bypassing the regular DNC Pravda outlets. Facebook changes their algorithms hitting Conservative sites, YouTube employing the SPLC to police content, and Twitter banning people they disagree with. Remember that one of the main criticisms of the Romney campaign was how far behind they were in micro targeting voters vs the Obama campaign.

Funny how I never see certain "neverTrump" posters put forth a fraction of the effort they spend on stirring up controversy about Trump and apply it to Democrat scandals. In the case of a select few they even go as far as to provide damage control for the left.
Yup, no shills here, folks. Move along! |

Quoted: The blackmailing and Ukrainian hookers is kind of a new angle. View Quote Imagine that, politics is sleazy, political consultants are sleazy, and they do sleazy things. Report is long on accusations and insinuations about the 2016 US election, but typically bereft of fact. It also does a fine job of enmeshing completely normal, legal, and typical digital marketing and data mining activities with Ukrainian hookers, the 2016 US election, and Trump. All we need is a dossier of urinating on beds and we're good to go. Garbage propaganda is garbage propaganda. Or maybe Trump sent Ukrainian hookers to Hillary's house and filmed it. Yeah, that's What Happened. Channel 4 is as credible as FeedBuzz, PuffHo and Vox. |
