If one factored in the margin of error, tfg had a chance to win which is what happened.

"Hillary Clinton is hanging onto a narrow 4-point lead over Donald Trump in Michigan heading into the last weekend before Tuesday’s election, with a new Free Press poll showing clear momentum for the Republican nominee in a state that several weeks ago was believed all but decided for the Democrat."

The poll had a margin of error of 4 points and Hillary's lead at the time the poll was taken was 4 points. On election day, tfg squeaked by a win in MI.

But thanks to russian help, and God knows how many ballots the GQP got rid of, and there's no telling what else the GQP did to fuck up the 2016 election.

Who could ever forget: "Russia, if you're listening."

And now we've heard about the "Green Bay Sweep" idea that fatass probably knew about, and endorsed. It was mighty funny to me that the rare inside straight in those three states fatass had to have to win the election he got. Hummmm 🤔 Until I leave this earth, I'll always feel that Hillary was robbed of the 2016 presidency. Hell, look at how the Roberts court gave Dubya the presidency in broad open daylight in 2000. The GQP just tried to steal the 2020 Presidency, and they more than likely stole the 2016 US Presidency.

Jimmy Carter, and from everything I know is in the loop so to speak of national intelligence. Thank God Pres. Biden took away fatasses right to know about our national intelligence info, which is why he probably stole it, and took it to his rats nest down in floriduh. Not to read of course, but to SELL TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, because he's treasonous and broke and will do anything for $$$$
