Hillary Clinton Explains Why She Really Lost to Trump

There is a lot of blame to go around in an election that close (with such an unexpected outcome).

I wasn't affected negatively by the effects of Obamacare, and the definition of "average American" is very subjective.

Many "average Americans" (for example, low-income/self-employed people able to access Medicaid expansion) were helped immeasurably by Obamacare.

Obamacare helped exponentially more than just a "very few individuals".

It saved many lives among people who would be otherwise uninsured.

As far as why she lost?

In an election that close there are probably a million reasons.

But, if I was to narrow it down:

1) Lack of enthusiasm among Blacks in Detroit and Milwaukee most likely cost her Michigan and Wisconsin.

2) Obviously, an egregious misreading of the situation on the ground in Western PA.

But, once again, a lot of blame to go around in such an incredibly close election (that defied all predictive analysis).

 

Russian internet trolls didn't do crap.

Hillary could have won, if she wasn't a lying scumbag.

 

Misogyny? She wouldn't have done nearly as well if she were a man. Being The first woman president was probably her biggest asset.

 

She wasn't running on anything except she has a vagina and it's her turn. She had nothing else.
We saw her stumble into the SUV and they claimed she had pneumonia, but instead of taking her to a hospital, they took her to someone's residence----------------------to sleep it off. Had they gone to a hospital, everyone would know she was just drunk. That and she couldn't be bothered to campaign in fly over country. Plus I think the Dems overall strategy of trying to convince us that she was soooo far ahead that we should just stay home, backfired. She wants to blame Comey but she should also blame Lil Debbie WS for getting caught sand bagging Bernie. Worst SoS and foreign policy ever.

 

Hillary lost because she is dishonest, untrustworthy, and was caught in so many lies. She and Obama appealed to everyone but hard working, christian, pro Americans.

 

Dems have been losing power since 2010. They lost the House in 2010, then the Senate in 2014, and finally the presidency in 2016.

There's no reason to stop them from losing again now. Next is a republican Senate SUPER MAJORITY in 2018. I'm betting they still don't get it.

They certainly tried hard on this very board and from the reception they received it looked like they had an effect

 

The feeling that the presidency was OWED to her poured out of every pore in her body.

She's a horrible human being. The wikileaks documents simply verified that for a lot of people.

She also gave off the very real impression that she was above the voters, and talking to them was beneath her.

 

No, we weren't voting for Hilary no matter what Russian trolls did or didn't do. Maybe one day you will understand that we didn't need Russia or anyone else to sway our vote. Hillary was a bad candidate and we didn't want her to be president. Period.
We can't help that you won't accept that fact.

 

She thought that since she was a D she was, to quote forum member Andrew Jackson, a lock, and in doing so ignored the people she thought were guaranteed. Bill even warned her but she blew him off. If you aren't important enough for a visit during the campaign, you just aren't important.

 

So you're speaking for everyone?

I saw Russian trolls claiming to be "liberals" affect Bernie supporters often.

Were you a Bernie supporter?

Of course not

 

Still can't hold Hillary personally responsible, can you?

 

Still can't admit the truth, can you...

 

Russian Bots! Misogyny! Racism! Sexism! Actually, no. She ran the worst presidential campaign since Hubert Humphrey and just like Humphrey she lost badly.

 

You don't remember a poster named "precision"?

 

Very, very vaguely. His posts weren't memorable, just the name though. So you think that's one of the bots? Just asking.

 

Sounds like she's blaming everything and everyone but herself.

 

Pretty much she lost because she was a very poor candidate. Left wingers wont admit it but she was a serial liar, and crooked. Further she supported Obama and his admin that pretty much was a total failure.

 

Hillary lost because Trump got more votes than she did in MI, WI and PA.

Beyond that, anybody is free to speculate.

The outcome won't change.

 

Hillary: "Why aren't I 50 points ahead?"
Me: "Because you insult every living being who could possibly vote for you, for not being 100% step in line, that's why."

 

Hillary lost for many reasons but the most important one is that she lacks charisma.

There is nothing bad about her that Trump isn't worse.

She's corrupt, a liar and a crook? Trump is a bigger one.

Hillary is far more qualified than Trump to be POTUS is every measurable aspect. She just didn't have the drawing power and that's really why she lost.

Trump however, is alluring to his base. And for this reason his supporters will put up with a lot of his lies, crookedness and corruption.

 

Typical of democrats Hillary blames every one else but herself.

 

Ugly, old, fat, and sick plus being a closet alky might have had something to do with it.
