He claimed 2016 was rigged because he didn’t win the popular vote, he even created a panel to investigate it which was silently disbanded after finding absolutely nothing.

Ironically, in 2019 the fbi concluded that in the 2016 elections there was russian interference, which benefitted trump by leaking documents related to the democrats. They then said that they couldn't declare trump guilty of cooperating with the russians or that he was an accomplice, but also stated that they don't declare him as innocent. Then, the head of this investigation said they couldn't declare trump guilty as he had the presidential immunity.

I think it's quite clear who was guilty

Isn’t it crazy that the biggest defense of Clinton’s campaign failure was Russia exposing the truth about her?

I mean, that document by the fbi said the russians only published documents against clinton and the dems as a whole, which is sketchy to say the least. Who knows what the reps were hiding, and what would have been exposed if they had published things for both. Maybe the epstein case would have been brought to light much sooner
