Why doesn't the media admit this. They are complicit in keeping this monster in office.

(11,996 posts)Unfortunately, Russia apparently convinced many people that trump was a better choice.
THEY voted for HIM, or didn't vote at all.
Sad.

(7,800 posts)When it's all been said and done, I believe it will be proven that Russia hacked vote totals in key swing states. (In collusion with the Trump Campaign (at Trump's urging) who provided the Russians with the specific counties they needed to flip - for President and down ballot.)
Putin did not expend all this energy hacking our system to be satisfied with what appeared to still be a Hillary victory.
It was Russian hacking (perhaps some additional GOP hacking, as well?) that won, er, stole the election for Trump - and not the myth of the incredible turnout of the heretofore unaccounted for invisible rural white man!! (the won EVERY poll - even Trump's internal ones - had forgotten to consider!)
