Google it and you will find all the articles on his travels and campaigning for her.
Comey may have been a problem but only because of the transfer of e-mails to a private e-mail account at Huma Abedin's house. I'm sure that all involved thought it was a good idea at the time, but they should have asked a cyber expert for input on the idea before doing it.
Russian collusion was an element, a big one. But the Russians just played on divisions in our country -- unless they hacked the vote tallies in some way in key states, and I would not eliminate that possibility. We rely far too much on computers in our elections. I vote by absentee ballot and make a copy of my ballot before I send it out. Let's encourage every Democrat to do that where possible.
Racism???? Not in California. But then California voted by a large majority for Hillary. I live in a very racially mixed neighborhood, so I am not as aware of that as an element in the election. I do know that members of minorities did not vote in large enough numbers, so maybe racism was a factor.
