Maddow: ‘Crazy, Conspiracy, Fox News-Type Stuff’ to Question if Kremlin Really Runs Troll Farm

‘Definitely crazy Fox News primetime conspiracy going on among Republicans but they are not all like that’

EXCERPT:

MADDOW: “There was one Republican member who I won’t embarrass by singling him out by name, embarrassed himself enough by suggesting that the troll farm, the Internet Research Agency, maybe wasn’t a Russian operation and that having been proven, he is kind of taking the conquered management side in that ongoing case against the Russian troll farm linked to that Russian oligarch. I mean, there's definitely some crazy, like, Fox News primetime conspiracy stuff going on among the Republicans, but they weren't all like that. Yes, there was one Republican member who was demanding that there be more citations of Fox News in Mueller's report, which is a laugh out loud moment. But Hurd and a few of the other members were talking seriously about Russia and I hope that Mitch McConnell heard that and might want to be constructive about 2020.”
