@GaryMarcus Because of the Larry King interview back then, or the political ad, or something else?

@GaryMarcus Agree it’s really hard to trust or distrust sources like these

I find it hard to believe that Russian was that interested in Trump in 1987 but maybe they do that for any American remotely important like a portfolio

@KettlebellDan doesn’t mean what they said isn’t true, and there is a ton of collateral evidence that seems to fit with their story.

even Russia admits, even bragged, how happy they are with Trump.

@GaryMarcus It’s really hard to determine the legitimacy of former kgb officials who stand to make a lot of money by writing books like these

At this point, we have to take allegations like these seriously.

The statement is a personal attack on an individual, questioning their character and morals without providing substantive evidence or engaging in a constructive dialogue. It does not contribute to the public discourse on the topic being discussed, which involves the legitimacy of sources and the influence of Russia on American politics.

  1. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement violates the principle of respecting the privacy and dignity of others by engaging in a personal attack. [-2]
  2. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement violates the principle of engaging in constructive criticism and dialogue, as it resorts to an ad hominem attack rather than addressing the topic at hand. [-2]
