Is there any evidence of Russia interfering in the 2016 US presidential election? (lemmygrad.ml)

I think it's at best negligible. People like to point to Russia funding Tim Pool or whatever. But how does that bring undecided voters to vote for Trump?

The Tim Pool audience was going to vote for Trump anyways. Maybe to change some of their minds on Russia (some cons do think Russia is an evil communist country).

But it doesn't change the election outcome.

I don't think even Israel has that much influence over Presidential elections, much more than Russia, sure but Israel is not the one preventing Harris from advocating for Palestine, it's her own choice.

Israel however has another way of influencing US elections. Not through media campaign or the lobby but with its own actions, escalating in Lebanon
