Oh, nonsense. You're saying American truckers scheduled this based on when Russians told them to do it? I'm sure the Russians strategic plan certainly included "hey comrades, we should encourage a few dozen American truckers to drive cross country at the same time we invade Ukraine! Yeah, that'll increase our likelihood of total control two fold! It'll crush the Americans!" What an outlandish claim.

We don't underestimate their influence, you regularly give them WAY, WAY too much credit for the scope of influence they actually have. With zero evidence. How many of these groups do you actually follow on social media? Are you a member of any of these groups on social media? Are you on social media at all? You've seen sketchy social media accounts making posts in the social media groups egging them on?

There are Americans that have been working to get this going since the beginning of the pandemic. It didn't pick up steam until they saw what happened in Canada. Most of the convoys scheduled it to arrive in DC around the SOTU. Yup, those real Americans organizing these groups, giving radio and TV interviews, standing in front of the crowds at gathering points and giving speeches...they are Russian bots. Gotcha.
