intentionally targeted the African-American community in an attempt to convince them to not vote for Hillary. The result - millions of people who voted for Obama didn't go to the polls and Trump pulled the "inside strait" due to under 100,000 votes in three states. Of course they affected the election.

But we are supposed to believe that Russia interfered with the intent of helping Trump, Trump won, but the interference had no affect. I guess we are all stupid.

voter rolls. The targeted ads could suppress some votes but also be used as an explanation for those turned away at the polls. And then Croschsck is also used to denigrate these voters as cheaters. Every tentacle works in concert with a couple others.
