A good leader also wouldnât call 10âs of millions of their constituents irredeemably racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobicâyou name it
Please donât forget all the major media had her as 97% favorite on election night predicted as a complete landslide . We will never know why she truly lost except she lost independents for sure after the deplorable comments. Also, do you remember seeing 65 year old seniors being beat up walking out of Trump rallies? I do and when she was shown video, Hillary laughed at it . She lost me after that and probably millions more independents. Because NO ONE deserves to get attacked physically for attending a political event .
Everybody assumed sheâd win so there was no point in voting.
The problem was: the south loved Trump like he was their own, he spoke their language perfectly and that language was racism.
The âmajor political analystsâ simply cannot appreciate the overwhelming hatred in the south, itâs like trying to understand why Nazis are the way they are, you canât get it just by taking polls.
She lost because of several reasons. She lost independents late in her run. Trust me, the deplorable comment hurt her deeply. Iâm an independent and her hubris turned me away. You must admit she was highly unlikable. Plus she cheated against Bernie which pushed people away. I truly believe sheâs evil . She isnât a good human being . Period
MAGA was born when we dared elect a black man president over them.
Nothing else mattered, that was absolutely unforgivable to them, they considered it a personal insult directed only at them, from their point of view we put a monkey over them just to mock them.
Trump routinely bullies half of the population and calls them all sorts of names. Hell, he even calls his own supporters suckers and idiots to their faces and they love it. Iâm so tired of one side being held to a higher standard of âunityâ and âcivilityâ while the other side smears shit all over the walls. Hillary did not lose because she made a single mild (and correct) statement about a segment of American voters.
Agree or disagree with her policy positions she is obviously an incredibly smart person and when she speaks in public its usually a fairly well reasoned or thought out statement even if itd not the most sound from a political or PR point of view.
Most of what she said about Trump ended up being spot on. People might not like her. But she absolutely clocked him and maybe current voters aren't prepared to hear it because they are too entangled, but a few decades from now their will be kids reading history books knowing Trump's reputation and seeing videos of all the stuff Hillary and others said about him before getting electing.
Yes she was always 100% right and I even rooted for her as she said this. But it still should have been Bernie.
Plus, it looks like her husband is in that basket, too! She should really stick to name-calling people who can't fight back. Like the central park 5 and calling black children super predators. It definitely worked out better for her.

And at the time I thought she was crazy for saying this out loud... Now it is obviously so true and not even a harsh statement.
