Hillary had flaws. But the Right Wing inflated them & concocted new ones. Media hasn’t recognized the Right’s lies fast enough. Sadly, voters haven’t either.
Andrew Gillum, a good man & good public servant, lost to a bad guy’s lie.

Republicans spent at least $7 million on TV ads attacking Andrew Gillum in connection with the FBI probe. But the investigation, records indicate, ultimately had little to do with the former mayor. https://t.co/K8UqhzFODR

The @GovRonDeSantis campaign & GOP spent at least $7m —about 27 percent of its $26m gen-elect ad buy— bashing @AndrewGillum as corrupt over the FBI’s investigation into Tallahassee city hall
Today’s indictments have 0 mention of, or reference to, Gillumhttps://t.co/sLFAXeMDNG
