Comey Testimony

It was all Kushner. He's a Boy Genius. Is he still getting all the credit or is he willing to let Russia and Cambridge Analytica take the glory?

"It's hard to overstate and hard to summarize Jared's role in the campaign," says billionaire Peter Thiel, the only significant Silicon Valley figure to publicly back Trump. "If Trump was the CEO, Jared was effectively the chief operating officer."

"Jared Kushner is the biggest surprise of the 2016 election," adds Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google, who helped design the Clinton campaign's technology system. "Best I can tell, he actually ran the campaign and did it with essentially no resources."

No resources at the beginning, perhaps. Underfunded throughout, for sure. But by running the Trump campaign--notably, its secret data operation--like a Silicon Valley startup, Kushner eventually tipped the states that swung the election. And he did so in manner that will change the way future elections will be won and lost. .... The Trump campaign, meanwhile, delved into message tailoring, sentiment manipulation and machine learning. The traditional campaign is dead, another victim of the unfiltered democracy of the Web--and Kushner, more than anyone not named Donald Trump, killed it.

Yep. She said later that the polls predicted a win there, so she spent a lot on ads and sent surrogates in her place. Even today she can't admit that maybe, just maybe it could have been done differently.

She also had an entire nation-state waging a sophisticated information warfare campaign in those states while simultaneously hacking her campaign and selectively releasing parts of emails intended to make her look bad. Some of which "coincidentally" ended up getting released within an hour of her opponent's worst news cycle.

Is it really that much of a stretch to say that said information warfare campaign moved the needle in her opponent's direction by .7% in Wisconsin, .2% in Michigan, and .7% in Pennsylvania?

Did the "buttery males" have an effect? Sure. But there were a LOT of things wrong with her campaign and candidacy, things that she had direct control over.

It's not her fault, it's those mean boys:

"They were never going to let me be President"

You would have to literally be the dumbest bitch on the planet to believe Russia was the cause of her losing the election.

Man, imagine how much Kaisich would have destroyed her by if he'd be the Republican nominee.

Kasich is a semi-functional retard.

Kasich is a semi-functional retard.

And he'd have done way better than Trump in the election. He'd have taken a lot of votes from Hillary.

Then again, I don't think there'd have been too many Hillary supporter crying images if Kasich had won as opposed to Trump.

Are you saying that Hillary lost the election because of Russia?

Honestly, not so sure. People voted for Trump for other reasons than "He's Republican". Kaisich is the same type of Republican that gave us Mitt Romney and John McCain and George W Bush.

Voting for Trump was just as much a vote against Hillary as it was against these style Republicans.
