It's like, did nobody in Democrats pay close attention for the last fifteen post-Bill Clinton years?

aka "She's a woman." because otherwise she wasn't. -- nm - MDH May 9, 07:01 1
- See below. I am utterly 100% confident that the USA is ready to elect a woman. Just not any woman. - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:04
Except, she wasn't. - znufrii, definitely not 40 May 9, 06:57 6
- Her negatives throughout the campaign were at historical levels. Whether fairly or not, she was never going to be one of the better candidates. - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:02 5
  - Which, as we've been seeing in the time since the election, were based on bullshit. -- nm - Reagen May 9, 07:10 2
    - She was an outlier of negative opinion for far longer than one election cycle. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:18 1
      - See this chart. She was running 40%+ negatives as far back as Fall of 2013. -- (link) - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:20 [Image]
  - Her negatives were the historic ones, right...did you see who the other candidate was? -- nm - znufrii, definitely not 40 May 9, 07:06 1
    - Ignore the other candidate for just one moment. In January 2015, well before he entered the race, she was still a poor Democratic candidate choice. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:06
yes, they're the same, it's all equal, blah blah blah fuck off -- nm - ty97 May 9, 06:53 10
- Fuck you ty if you can't be civil. I've kept my head down for awhile here to give you guys some space to wallow, but if you can't... -- (edited) - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:00 9
  - Using the word "wallow" says a lot, dude. -- nm - David's iPad May 9, 07:03 8
    - It's how it is coming off David. [Edit: Would have "grieve" been less egregious? Realizing I may not have used the right word to convey the point. ] -- nm* - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:04 7
      - Some people who actually believe in American ideals getting upset when a guy who couldn't name them spends his first months in pissing on them... - Will Hunting May 9, 07:10 3
        
        Guys, I never wrote one pro-Trump word in this thread. Here's what I was replying to: - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:17 2
        
        You're the one who used the term wallow about those complaining. - Will Hunting May 9, 07:27 1
        
        And that's fair. See my edit. I withdraw the use of wallow in favour of grieve. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:30
      - i think the problem is that Trump is doing many things that people here find appalling. And knowing that basically no other candidate (either party) - Andie May 9, 07:09 1
        
        I wasn't comparing them. People are projecting that. I saw this as reply to a complaint about Bernie Bros and such. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request May 9, 07:13
      - Grieve would have been fine. -- nm - David's iPad May 9, 07:08
