Beachbum you don't understand, the title is misleading on purpose
Of course. Mentioning as well the fact that this "bombshell" indictment is literally "13 Russian twitter trolls stuffposting while impersonating other people" really drives home the point that this is virtually meaningless on its own.
13 people posting memes and LARPing isn't enough to defeat the integrity of the political process. There's no evidence this had any impact on the results of the election at all, and if anything Mueller and co. likely spent 10x as much money catching social media stuffposters as the Russians paid them in the first place.
There is zero evidence
anybody actually benefited from this, nobody that interacted with the shills knew that they were actually speaking to Russians, and neither the Annoying Orange nor Sanders campaign had any direct contact with said trolls.
But the way that the Guardian worded the title (and then McZealot chose to preserve the original wording) seems to imply it was an impactful operation in which Annoying Orange was the beneficiary/his campaign was complicit that altered the outcome of the election, which couldn't be further from the truth.
tl;dr A baker's dozen of Russians obtained visas under false pretenses, stole SSNs and personal info, and stuffposted on social media. AKA, Russians doing stuff we've known about for decades, but using new technology and platforms.
