I'm pretty certain every country is trying to interfere in every other country's elections anyway.
Well those that have elections anyway.
Like when no one liked the fact that after ousting Mubarak in Egypt, those dumb Egyptians only went and freely elected the Muslim Brotherhood so they had to have ANOTHER election so they would elect the government that the US, Britain and France wanted them to have.
Or when the Irish, French and Dutch voted not to ratify the E.U constitution and so they had to have ANOTHER vote later on and do what they were told by Germany.
Or when Afghanistan and Iraq had to vote who they were told to vote for so that they'd have a government that would take it right up the arse from their "liberators".
It's worked so well over the years and created such bastions of peace and democracy as Iran, North Korea, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Liberia, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Uganda, Panama, Nicaragua, Syria, Lebanon, Bosnia, Serbia Israel and Palestine
Were all the elecitons this country has tampered with legitimate?
Oh, and what about the dictators we installed in other countries? You remember the monk who set himself on fire during the Vietnam War in protest? Guess whose brutal policies he did that in protest of?
Spoiler alert: a dictator we put in power.

I see no President Pence for long in America's future.
Barring direct tampering with the voting system, why wouldn't it be?
Otherwise, we'd need to think about outlawing marketing, internal politics, and everything else that influences the general publics decision making by hook or by crook.
I think when it turns out a large amount of the campaign involved collusion with a foreign power and perhaps the presidential candidate was compromised by said power (if it turns out he is, the ramifications will run on and on), I think the whole election may be found illegitimate.
I also see a huge voter backlash.
Yep. Trump is the one that COLLUDES with Russia....Oh WAIT!!!!!!
My prediction is either the money trail
or the Miss Universe Pageant "honey trap" rumours where lead to collusion or that he is completely compromised and potentially lead back to his campaign.

Apparently Russian businessmen sent ads on facebook which were branded as "fake news" and that made people vote for Trump, which was obviously wrong and stupid (even though Hillary won the popular vote) so yes, the election was illegitimate.Are you really that stupid? 😐

So much collusion:Everyone shoulda gone with Gary Johnson.
So far the only person who hasn't colluded with Russia is Trump.
