It’s been a frenetic day of chatter on social media, and the conclusion seems to be that Hillary Clinton would have been our next president had Russia not tampered with the election somehow. It’s that “how” bit in particular that’s leaving people a bit befuddled.

Did Russian agents reprogram voting machines in Wisconsin by sneaking in floppy disks? Or did the Russians use propaganda and social engineering techniques to convince millions of Americans that Hillary wasn’t really that likable and trustworthy after all?

One theory seems to be gaining some traction, and the fact that there’s neither proof nor a shred of evidence of it actually happening just makes it all the more imperative that the federal government investigate: WE HAVE TO BE SURE, or we run the risk of living our lives haunted by doubt and suspicion.

Did Russia also hack Hillary's campaign calendar and delete all her stops in rural Wisconsin, Penn., and Michigan?https://t.co/5lUnrvsGpy — Frank Luntz (@FrankLuntz) December 10, 2016

Come to think of it, Huma Adebin did say she left the secretary of state’s appointment calendar lying on the bed in an unlocked hotel room, and she’d also left a bag of confidential “burn stuff” in the front seat of her car. Was Huma Abedin a Russian agent? Hmm …

those Russians must have demanded that Hillary not campaign in Wisconsin and Michigan, too. — Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) December 10, 2016

Wow you guys I can't believe Russia forced Hillary to call half the country deplorable and banned her from spending any time in Wisconsin. — Sean Davis (@seanmdav) December 10, 2016

And can you believe Putin made Hillary run more ads in Omaha than in Michigan and Wisconsin combined? Diabolical. https://t.co/p6mbGxYtAu — Sean Davis (@seanmdav) December 10, 2016

Putin is so brilliant he masterminded Hillary getting 3M more votes than Trump but still lose the election by almost 75 electoral votes. — Razor (@hale_razor) December 10, 2016

Every U.S poll had Hillary crushing Trump in Wisconsin, but Putin's ground game in Madison knew it was close so he hacked paper ballots. — Razor (@hale_razor) December 10, 2016

Russia forced Hillary's campaign to have one tenth as many canvassers in Michigan as John Kerry did 12 years earlier, crazy. — Freddie (@freddiedeboer) December 10, 2016

Hillary tried to go to Wisconsin and Michigan but the Russians kept hacking her plane back to California and New York — Josh Earnst (@NotJoshEarnest) December 11, 2016

Russian hackers blocked anyone on Hillary's campaign from accessing the Wikipedia page about the electoral college. https://t.co/W1J5TlAjtV — Sean Davis (@seanmdav) December 10, 2016

@seanmdav The Russians also removed Wisconsin from the big wall map at Clinton HQ and renamed it the Canadian province of Manitario. — Nightwood (@Dick_Nightwood) December 10, 2016
