10. It's troubling that we seem to lack a means to investigate/invalidate a possibly fraudulent "win."

Until the full truth comes out, if it ever does, we will not know to what extent Russia influenced the outcome of the election (and that's not even taking into account Comey's actions or voter suppression).

Even if we learned that HRC won both the popular vote and the electoral vote, an outcome that should in a fair world overturn the installation of Trump and give the presidency to HRC, it appears that, at best (!), we'd end up with a President Ryan. If it was not a free election, where would recourse for HRC be found?

I don't know that Trump actually lost -- but I don't rule it out, simply because NOBODY'S TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW, AND HOW MUCH, RUSSIA INTERFERED IN AN AMERICAN ELECTION. We know they interfered. Will we ever know more than that?
