Even trump was surprised at the result, and that makes sense because I dont think any of his team realized putin had KGB agents planted in voting precincts, flipping votes, but he did.

There is no way they thought they were going to win. I think more ignorant white wing racists went to the polls than expected, some Democrats stayed home because they were confident, and some Democrats voted 3rd Party or for trump as some kind of protest. It all added up to a small loss in a few key states.

I got a sick feeling when the early Kentucky votes came in much more for trump than expected. That was like 7:00 or 8:00 PM.
