    He beat an elderly, uninspiring, career politician

    He has not ever done this.

    In fact, since his 2016 fluke, his brand has been toxic and his candidates have consistently lost (as has he)

        She was not a “career politician” if you want that word to have any meaning. She was a civilian until like '98.

        She also wasn’t elderly or uninspiring.

            Maybe among the young and disconnected. The reason she lost in reality is that she was painted as a “corrupt politician” and tied to the Benghazi nothingburger while her opponent ran on populist anti-politician rhetoric

            The masses are dumb and fell for it.

          The revolving door is a thing she was married to President…hmm what was his name I’m forgetting it, maybe it will come to me. Oh that’s right Bill! That’s his name! To say she’s not a career politician after being in or around politics her entire adult life is down right disingenuous. She represents the dem establishment there’s no question of that, but I’m sure you will enlighten me as to how I’m wrong. 🙄

            It’s less that you’re personally wrong and more that your entire belief system here was built by Republican strategists and you are too uninformed to recognize it.

              I voted for Hillary in the general I didn’t fall for anything, but I can still recognise her flaws and want something better than the two options we’re spoon fed every election.

                Lol “I voted for her but I still believe everything the Republicans said about her”

                That’s… I mean at least you’re useful.

              Why are you being this way lol?

              I was there for the election too. I remember what people said and felt. That absolutely was not Republican strategists.

              Republicans framed her as corrupt sure but she was genuinely uninspiring and represented the establishment. The public has distrust for her and Trump represented something new, he wasn’t the white bread Christian candidate the Republicans always pushed.

              She lost because candidates like Sanders and Stein were what people wanted, they had ideas to offer and she was a continuation of what people felt we had.

                You’re explaining my own points back to me.

                Sanders was not what people wanted or they’d have voted for him

                  Lol except you’re arguing with everything I said here in other comments but sure.

                  I literally said Hillary was uninspiring and you say “nuh-uh”

                  Now you say Sanders isn’t what people wanted but it absolutely was lol

                    If Hillary was uninspiring, it’s unlikely she’d have won the popular vote by roughly 3 million votes - the same amount she beat Sanders by in a much smaller pool of voters

                    She may not have inspired you, but that’s irrelevant
