The thing is, there is no data to suggest that the Russians actually succeeded in influencing anything in our 2016 election. Most of the people claiming otherwise are clinging to the uncertainty, since it's impossible to say with absolute certainty that not a single vote may have been influence by something the Russians did.
But seriously, have you seen any of these propaganda messages that these Russian actors, who were impersonating Americans, posted online? Have you seen all the propaganda images posted on Trump's twitter feed every time he posts a message? Can you remember anything about John Podesta's leaked emails? Seems to me the Russian efforts were rather weak, but there is a narrative being pushed that Trump would have never been elected if it weren't for the Russians. I personally see no evidence of this.
It also appears that the Obama Admin was well aware of what the Russians were doing, but considered it a non-threat and did nothing to stop it. Deciding instead to simply ridicule Trump for claiming our elections could ever possibly be "rigged" in any way.
I would claim the "grab em by the pussy" tape influenced the election by an order of magnitude more than anything the Russian's did, but we still know nothing about who leaked that tape. Could have been a private American citizen who worked on the show. Could have been a hacker with connections to a foreign government that gained access to the Access Hollywood servers and stole it. Who knows.
Meanwhile the attempts of other nations to influence our election went largely unnoticed. Large amounts of money being donated to campaigns, as well as to the "charities" connected with the campaigns. I mean, typically the candidate that spends the most money will end up winning the election, so... but that sort of thing is ignored entirely. Gets in the way of the narrative I guess.
