Here’s one of those headlines I laughed at without ever even glancing at the actual article, and I swear I’m not making it up:
Democrats say they now know exactly why Clinton lost
Hint: Although I’m quite sure the article doesn’t admit it, this is why…
Further data might be found in the sound of the voice. The night before the election results were announced, when I was resigned to a Hillary presidency, I wondered how I would ever get through four years of hearing that voice day in and day out. Wondered if it were really possible to bore out your own eardrums.
Oh – and then there’s all that “progressivism,” and her plans for throwing gun owners into gulags guarded by sea bass with really cranky attitudes. That was off-putting, too.
So yeah – non-democrats know exactly why Clinton lost. It’s not that complicated. Having gotten that off my chest, I may go read the article and learn what the democrats’ new excuses are.
Spare yourself the double-talk/spin. The article doesn’t have any solid information in it. As best I can tell they didn’t learn anything or I just don’t know the code to double-talk/spin. If anybody got anything out of the article I would be interested to know what it was.
What I took from the article is that the Dems are still pretending that the fact that a huge number of voters absolutely DEPLORED Hillary Clinton (see what I did there?) wasn’t a factor, and also that a similarly huge number would not tolerate a “Clinton Dynasty” based on a woman who essentially claimed she DESERVED the presidency was in play.
The article also refused to address the heinous way the DNC leadership totally screwed the rank-and-file with their super delegates, pre-scripted elections and total disdain for the ‘lesser’ folk.
I know several life-long democrats who have bailed out of the party due to the antics of the leadership in 2015 and 2016. Unfortunately, one went total socialist but the others are actually asking questions and are starting to think for themselves.
What I found of interest was that there was a large number of Obama voters who voted for Trump. Recall that Obama also ran as an outsider/change agent (plus Hope!). The Dems core base still pretty much turned out, but a number of people considered Dems were in fact still voting to stick it to The Man. In this case, Hillary was The Man!
that article may not be worth your time but i occasionally read some of their stuff because i think we should keep ourselves apprised as best as possible of the enemy’s tactics.
I just never liked either of the Clintons, Bill is too greasy, Hillary just acts like she is above it all. Her laugh makes my ass itch too – sends a shiver down my spine. So glad I don’t have to listen to her spout off what I know to be lies.
