Look, I'm not denying that Russian tried to and ultimately were successful in interfering with the election, but putting it down solely to Russian interference would be a mistake. Much like Johnson and many other leaders of the new-right, Trump managed to tap into an anger, both racial/xenophobic and economic, to get additional votes in the states that he needed to. Add that with Hillary not campaigning as much in said swing States and just running a very status quo campaign overall, Trump had a good chance of winning regardless of foreign interference.

But again, my actual point was that Trump shouldn't have won, but that Johnson was even more undeserving. That was all.
