Third Party Candidates Helped Trump

In a twist of irony, when one looks at the numbers, it's obvious that third party candidates helped Trump win the election. Ironic because Bill Clinton would not have been elected in 1992 had not been for Ross Perot.

The corruption of the Clintons caught up with them. When the Sanders supporters found out that their primary process was rigged, many of them flocked to Gary Johnson or Jill Stein. In Wisconsin, GJ garnered enough votes to make a difference.

Some GOP voters may have crossed over to third parties, but I believe probably more Dems migrated.

I would've thought more GOP voters went to Johnson's 3 million votes, which would hurt Trump more than Hillary.

The Dems have no one to blame but themselves for allowing a corrupt liar like Hillary to run.

True. Had they not sabotaged Sanders, they may have had a better chance to win the election.
