Yes, because their objective wasn't necessarily to put Trump in the White House, it was to sow division among the population in the US. It's been reported that both Pro-Trump/Anti-Hillary and Anti-Trump/Pro-Hillary pages were being pushed by the Russian Government.

And going by the way political Discourse has been, especially since the election, I'd say they definitely succeeded.

No, because the objective was to damage her chances. I dont like her either, but it wouldve been the better of the 2.
