> Ah yes because the mainstream media censored Trump so much.

I'm not even american, but even I noticed how major media companies such as CNN or NBC insisted in dedicating major time slots just to defame and harass Trump.

I mean, in CNN we even had Fareed Zakaria dedicating all his show just to quite blatantly state that Trump was all kinds of awful and incompetent and unfit for president.

Whether Trump was or wasn't a good candidate is immaterial. The truth is that the bulk of the US mass media was gunning for Trump, some were subtle but others were going at it harder than attack ads.
