Pennsyltucky gave Trump the edge

As a child of the Cold War we were lead to believe that the SOVIETS were 10 foot monster soldiers who ate babies and destroyed by our media.

After the wall fell and we got a look inside my running joke was that it turned out they were ..... Wisconsin. They ate sausages, rooted for the red team, and drank A LOT.

So 80,000 people got drunk and made joke/throw away votes across 3 states.
Because our media lead them there.

Pennsyltucky and Putin/Comey--tRump's boy toys gave tRump that edge which he still may not have had. I now don't think Hillary lost Michigan, and I'm side-eying Wisconsin and Pennsylvania's so-called losses too. She lost ALL of those states by SCANT amounts and with help from his boy toy(s) Putin/Comey. Not to mention all of the voter suppression and voter disenfranchisement going on as well courtesy of the GOP/Red state (R) governors.

Doesn't matter who the Governor is.

IF certain machines were cyber-hacked, FDR could have hypothetically been the Governor of Pa., and the Rethug running for POTUS had IE: "help" from a foreign entity, old voting machines with no paper trails in mostly Dem voter precincts, voter disenfranchisement/suppression--Also in Dem precincts--that GOP person could easily have won Pa. with just "enough" votes.
