Ever think of pointing the finger at Clinton's incompetent advisors, The DNC and Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the fact that yes Hillary was a flawed candidate and no way in hell could she convince voters she was different. No way Hillary could convince voters she could bring about change.
Remember Obama that said "A change we can believe in" well that was all bullshit. The only change he brought us was a Health Care Bill drafted by the Insurance Companies and Lobbyists.
Oh sure he brought us through the financial ruins that Bush and the Republicans put us in..
But what about the broken promises he made..What about the TPP he was shoving down our throats,what about the preaching about unfair trade practices by China and other countries.
Not everyone are political junkies like us and the only thing they see is whats on the surface and what they hear on the right wing media. They cant look beyond that. It was Hillary's campaign managers and advisors to do that and to take them beyond the reich wing propaganda and they failed miserably.
The thing about Obama he had some very outstanding campaign advisors that got us to believe his bullshit twice,,Hell I voted for him twice..I voted for Hillary not be because I liked her but because I hated that son-of-bitch Fascist Nazi.
But many Democrats just couldn't bring themselves to do what I did and that is why Hillary lost.
