This is EXACTLY the crime Don Jr will be convicted of, for seeking illegal in kind donations from Russians.
Thanks for bringing it up.
Mexico has been using Twitter bots to influence elections for a long time. But, I am sure there is not way that any of the bots are allowed to comment on anything that is happening in the US. No retweets. Nothing. That is perfectly logical and rational thinking.
According to the article, they were the fucking pioneers of it.

Twitter Mischief Plagues Mexico's Election
Using software bots to repeat messages, supporters of the presidential candidates are pioneering underhanded Web tactics.
More surprising has been the degree to which campaigners are resorting to spam tactics. In the presidential campaign, one party in particular (the Institutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI) has come under fire for unleashing tens of thousands of bots, or user accounts programmed to automatically tweet specific words and phrases, and organizing large groups of human Twitter users to simultaneously publish the exact same message. The goal: to make it more likely for the message to land on Twitter’s list of “trending” topics.

Holy shit! It is like everyone is doing it according to the article below.
So confusing, it is not just Russia and the GOP!!!????
http://www.slate.com/articles/techn.../how_politicians_should_use_twitter_bots.html
It’s all part of a larger trend toward automated politics. Campaigns and officials worldwide now use bots for a multitude of tasks beyond simple social media account management. These uses range from the seemingly mundane—sending out messages on particular pieces of legislation—to the downright nefarious—spreading covert political propaganda.
In Mexico, government actors have used bots to silence protestors and activists. In Turkey, these software-driven accounts send out pro-regime propaganda. Political bots have also been used—in the United States, Europe, and beyond—to drive up follower counts of candidates and causes. This social padding gives off the illusion of popularity, subtly manipulating public opinion during contested elections.

How Mexican Twitter Bots Shut Down Dissent
Peñabots, hashtag poisoning, and fake trends have stifled communication in Mexico.
More than 75,000 automated Twitter accounts are being used in Mexico to combat protests and attack critics of the government, according to research presented by writer Erin Gallagher at the Chaos Communication Camp in Zehdenick, Germany earlier this month.
The automated accounts, known as Peñabots, first appeared in 2012 during the election of President Enrique Peña Nieto.

When it finally dawned on Trump that the FBI was aware of their corrupted activities , what did he scream ? . ? . ?

Those pissant Russians need to learn how to do it from the Mexicans.
Facebook currently holds approximately 640'321 Peñabots, while Twitter requires less.

President Enrique Peña Nieto is apparently the pioneer of fake news as well.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peñabot
In March 31, 2016 in an article published by magazine Bloomberg Business Week a Colombian, a hacker named Andrés Sepúlveda claimed to have haven paid $600'000 pesos, by the "Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI)" for hacking files (including phone calls, e-mails and strategies) pertaining Peña Nieto's rivals respective political campaigns, and also manipulate social media to create fake news against his opponents with 30'000 fakes twitter accounts whom helped him create fake trending topics, and the perception of public enthusiasm towards Peña Nieto's 2012 presidential campaign.
The election day he claims to have been watching a Live feed on Bogota, Colombia and to start destroying evidence (USBs, cellphones, computers) right after Peña Nieto was declared winner. He said he was helped by a team of 6 hackers, which he led.[10][11] He also claims to have helped hack elections from other Latin American countries including Nicaragua, Panama, Honduras, El Salvador, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala and Venezuela, but said his Mexican operation was "the most complex by far".

Seriously Americans, how can you live in a country with guys like this
He could be your children's school bus driver...
The only reason any of these bots work is low IQ drones like him in the first place.
Ok, lets all try to explain to him.
Two that is 2 bad things do not cancel each other out.
