If the video of Donald Trump and Billy Bush making explicit remarks about women had never been released, how would his performance have changed? I assume it would have been stronger, since there were probably at least a few people who dumped him afterwards (and no video could possibly have been enough to flip NH considering the close margin).

He would've won the popular vote. He could've took Minnesota and barely lose in Illinois.

I wouldn't go this far, but he may have won the popular vote.

Also his 53% vote of White women would've been near 60%.

He would have won the popular vote, New Hampshire, Minnesota, and Maine.  His margins would have also been much less underwhelming in places like Texas and Georgia

Also Evan McMullin would be a nobody, despite running for President. Evan McMullin got a lot of attention after P*ssygate. So Utah's result margin would be much greater for Trump.

I mean, you have to assume that Trump would have won a bigger victory, but who knows. Maybe the video galvanized some of his supporters.

Well I don't think he was arguing that.

This unlike anything else showed just how much the media was lying to the people.

Trump wins YUGE, probably winning the Popular Vote by 3% or so.

Minnesota, Maine, and NH flip, Illinois barely holds D.

And if Comeyghazi still happens anyway, he gains Nevada and Colorado as well.

New Hampshire goes to Trump. Ayotte is re-elected. Bigger margin in Utah. That is all.

Prob only Minnesota and NH flip,

Literally by that point the people who were already not disgusted by Trump were going to vote for him anyway . I just give him Minnesota and NH as he prob lost a little bit of support and those were close.

NH angry women stay home giving Trump the victory there, and sending climbing Maggie falling.

Without the Billy Bush film clip, a number of GOP officeholders wouldn't have rescinded their support of Trump, or come out as not endorsing him.

I think without Pussygate, Hillary keeps the focus on more significant flaws of Trump and holds onto PA, WI and MI. Also, the polls are closer all along so they know they need to hold onto the midwest to have a chance.
