I'm arguing that the mainstream media made up the Russian story. Not one person has been able to provide any demonstration that the 100k in FB ads that were purchased from Russia (maybe by the government, maybe not) had any impact whatsoever. As someone who's worked in online ads for > 15 years, I will tell you that 100k in ads will not have a national impact. Especially when both other parties are paying hundreds of millions of dollars in marketing.
