I have no doubt we have been seeing many paid Clinton trolls here. Can’t name a single one, would not bother. I have no subpoena power here. Can’t get them under oath. (and we know from Bill Clinton’s history, not everyone tells the truth under oath). But I suspect the influx of jerks recently overlaps with them.
A little story about Bernie’s campaign:
After a PAC working with Hillary Clinton's campaign pledged $1 million to "correct" her critics on Facebook and Reddit, the Sanders campaign shut down persistent rumors that their side did the same.
A day after a Hillary Clinton-supporting super PAC revealed it would dedicate $1 million to “push back” against negative commenters and what they describe as “Bernie Bros” on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit and Instagram, a spokesperson at Bernie Sanders’ campaign stated that neither his camp nor its messaging surrogates have participated in the same behavior.
“Our campaign and our vendors are not paying people to reply to anti-Bernie comments on social media,” said Sanders campaign rapid response director Mike Casca. “Come on man, really?”
The article shows that the false and misleading memes about Revolution Media likely were orchestrated by Brock’s group:
This claim about Revolution Messaging was untrue, and the Post later removed the quote and added a correction that reads, “Editor’s note: This story has been edited to remove an inaccurate reference to a vendor for the Sanders presidential campaign.”

Due to an FEC loophole, Correct the Record has claimed since last year it is able to communicate directly with the Clinton campaign.
Paid trolls.
It is really disappointing that some people in my posts tossing out vile insults at me were doing it for pay and not because they really hate me. I prefer honest hate to feigned hate. To all those who truly hate my “beautiful loser” ass, thank you. I respect honest hate.
Do they pay $15 per hour? I will fight for your right for 15!
And then they will come to us and ask for unity.
They insult amateurs (us). People involving themselves in the political system. Paid cyber bullying.
Smears at us. Calling us racists, sexists, now losers. Now personal attacks.
Paid fucking trolls.
Thanks Hillary.
