From the article:<br /><br /><i>It’s easy enough to see Trump as having ascended to office because of a unique, unrepeatable set of factors: a frustrated electorate still hurting from the backwash of the 2008 financial crash; Russian interference in the election and a deluge of pro-Trump fake news stories on social media; a highly polarising opponent who came to symbolise the Washington elite that populists decried; and an estimated $5bn‑worth of free campaign coverage from media outlets obsessed with the views and clicks that the former reality TV star generated.</i><br /><br />DOJ IG report said there any Russian interference had no effect on the outcome of the election. <br /><br />https://tinyurl.com/yafeq8mk<br /><br /><i>We found that while neutral stories made up the bulk of the reporting (43.1 percent), there were far more negative stories (611) than positive ones (334). Stories on Hillary Clinton were 31.6 percent negative and 22.3 percent positive. It was worse for Donald Trump, with 44.5 percent of the stories portraying him in a negative light, and only 17.4 percent positive.</i><br /><br />Bottom line is this lady doesn't know shit from shinola because she's lazy, didn't do any research and just made up something that fit her preconceived ideas. She should have actually ASKED people why they voted the way the did. That's what Salena Zito and Brad Todd did and their surveys show a different picture entirely.<br /><br />https://www.amazon.com/Great-Revolt-Populist-Coalition-Reshaping/dp/1524763683<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9263167.post-66180887095876872102018-07-16T13:41:40.211-04:002018-07-16T13:41:40.211-04:00Can't think of anything to add to that.
