Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by millions of votes. It was 13M to 16M.

    She would have been a fantastic president and avoided much of the Trump failures. We all should have come together for that outcome.

    she never had a chance but was pushed anyway. even when people who didn't like her voted for her, it couldn't overcome her negative baggage. decades worth.

    sure, a lot of that is deplorables and misogynists and fuck them, but, bernie was the better choice every which way. even the birds endorsed him.

    She actually polled among the most popular politicians in the USA once upon a time, and her husband Bill Clinton was the last president to create surplus. I wouldn't really call it decades of negative baggage. Ffs, she participated in the Civil Rights movement alongside Bernie Sanders.

    but by 2016 was wallowing in a wave of negatives

    and her husband Bill Clinton was the last president to create surplus.

    we've seen repeatedly that dems save the economy only for conservatives and independents to ignore that; happened with Obama, happened with Biden. That doesn't justify the way the progs were ignored, arrogantly.

    Ffs, she participated in the Civil Rights movement alongside Bernie Sanders.

    well, yeah, but also, her idol was Dr Henry Killinger. Bernie got arrested for protesting during the civil rights movement (there are pics even!), and never endorsed someone who murdered thousands of innocent cambodians.
