The way Trump acts, talks and carried himself before the election had no bearing.

These stories about Trump raping women didn't sway voters.

If people think that Trump having an affair with porn stars would turn people off and keep them from voting for him, you are seriously delusional. As a matter of opinion(got you, you thought I was going to say "Fact"), if these stories came out about Trump before the election, he most likely would have won the popular vote.

I get it, people hate the guy, He is a loonie toon. It's just too bad the Democrats nominated a Loonier Toonier candidate than him.

Hillary, an experienced and steady politician who wasn't paying of porn stars and playmates and grabbing P was "loonier"?

About the best you can say is that despite the Hollywood acess tape, Trump still had enough to win the electoral vote. That does not mean these scandals did not depress his vote count.  If 19 women were not accusing him of harassment and assault, perhaps he'd have won the popular vote.

While it is true that many Trump voters embrace lower standards, its not clear he could have won the necessary states without a critical fraction of independents, women, and traditional conservatives who aren't so comfortable with deceit and immorality, and might have rejected the idea of the nation's foremost representative baning a porn star as his wife recovered from birthing their child and then paying for silence.
