I find the irony in so many Americans being outraged at a foreign state influencing another state's elections to be deliciously intoxicating.
But no, they rather blame others, be they foreign or even within the party: right now the Dems can’t decide if they are 1980s Dems or 1920s Workers Partiers.
This doesn't really communicate anything. All the examples are something of this ad about americans liking cars was targeted to americans who like cars. I don't at all deny Russia meddling, but the website does a poor job at showing what they were trying to influence. Example: This ad targeted people interested in same-sex marriage and 12 more. We speak for all fellow members of LGBT community across the nation. How…
Also, this is just digital propaganda. The US gov. and media outlets do it too.

I think it’s mostly redirecting dissatisfaction. Dems waaay underperformed and need to find a scapegoat rather than look internally and see why people switched.

If I remember correctly, it wasn't so much that many people switched parties, but that typical Democrat voter turnout was low, reflecting some amount of disillusionment.
Also, what you say about the Democrats' identity crisis seems to mirror what's been happening with Labour (the left party) in the UK.
It's a very nice looking tool, but hijacking scrolling is always a bad call.
With my small touchpad on my laptop, I was unable to even get past the first entry. Closed the tab instantly after that. I'm sure the info was enlightening, but totally unreadable to me.
If they bought ads to slant an election what does this say about the people falling for it? Also, this is just digital propaganda. The US gov. and media outlets do it too.

Whataboutism doesn't change the facts at hand, do they? A hostile foreign state orchestrated an intelligence operation to elect a specific person to further their own geopolitical goals. Every single person in this country should be alarmed by this.

Also, the image data is missing. A lot of these are non-sequiturs without the picture.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Disillusionment through propaganda and well-timed leaks of stolen documents by a foreign, hostile power.
