Trump won by 77,000 votes over four states which is about 8 tenths of a percent of voters. So was it Putin, was it Comey, or was it just because Hillary was a worse candidate than Trump? What I do believe is that Trump wouldn't be president without someone's help...
No one would be President without someone's help. It was Facebook and Google. Trump's team understood the power of social media better than Hillary, and he had a Facebook employee on his staff to help them utilize all the metadata available to reach out to likely voters, conservatives and independents. Trump just ran a better and smarter campaign. Hillary thought she had a lock on many states in the rustbelt and failed to campaign in them during the final couple weeks. Overconfidence; could be the eighth deadly sin, or not if you include it in pride. This in addition to the first seven; envy, gluttony, greed or avarice, lust, pride, sloth, and wrath. Yup, that sounds like both Clintons.
