the Bernie Bros as there is among the Trumpsters. Actually, I think the Bernie Bros were a bigger target of the Russian ads than Hillary was. Recently the Washington Post, New York Times, Reuters all published examples of the Facebook ad purchased by Russian trolls and a lot of it was aimed at aggravating the Bernie supporters--and they fell for it--hook, line and sinker. Hillary would have had to have been nothing short of the Virgin Mary to have been worthy in their eyes by the time the Russian propaganda was done with them.
I have seen several friends who are Bernie supporters go down the same path as my in-laws who watch too much Fox and have been brainwashed into Trump supporters. Looking forward to the documentary "The Brainwashing of My Dad" when it comes out on Netflix.
Yes, Russia was involved, but I think a lot of people are embarrassed that they fell for it.
