That is not the issue. That was never the issue.The issue is all the fake news and fake people that flooded the internet promulgating lies about Hillary affected what people thought m2c and what they thought affected how they voted. Period. To what degree we shall never know. But if you are fed lies about someone that you think reflects the truth are you telling me it would not affect you? Of course it would. What information we take in absolutely shapes what we think and what we think absolutely shapes what we do. Thank you for your reply.
There is fake news all the time. Has been for years. It used to be called political spin....but the news has gotten so bad and they have gotten caught lying so often no one trusts them anymore. It is up to every voter to look at each candidates position on issues. I don't know anyone who voted without knowing the positions on the issues. I got most of the people I know to take the isidewith.com quiz which asks your opinions on issues and then tells you which candidate agrees with your positions the most. I think some may have been surprised at the results.
