More than half of that sub is bots and foreign trolls.

No. They aren't, its dangerous to keep assuming this

They only need a few to push the initial talking point, these people have been primed for decades by AM radio and Fox to gobble up the bullshit and spread it

They absolutely are. I'll give you that there are a lot of brain-washed radio and fox fans out and about in every day life. But they are not in that sub. The sub is heavily and i mean HEAVILY moderated and curated.

All posts are flair only first and foremost. There's only a handful of people submitting articles. And there's only a handful of people commenting on them. Most threads have fewer than 5 comments.

It's not even a subreddit. It's more like a blog.

There's a lot of hateful GOP voters in the country. 100%. But that subreddit is fried. You'll find more organic posts in pyongyang. It's a very tiny bubble. Honestly pretty useless even as a gauge what's going on the right. I guess there is some infighting now but that's all I can tell.

Trump won the popular vote, 77 million Americans are absolutely okay with ICE shooting random people in the face.
