The birther movement was the fringe, and then they were put front and center.Slowly raises hand.
As for Gore, again, that is a different issue entirely. The situation with that election was one that required the recounts and everything, and I can't blame Gore (and wouldn't blame Bush if the tables were turned) for saying that since the recounts were stopped by the courts and it is still truly unknown.
3 plus million vote gap.
Russians dabbled all up in election systems.
Trump conveniently won states by a hair that swung the election his way.
I now have zero faith in any electronic voting machine now and would prefer a physical ballot.
