The extreme left didn't give us Thump. The Deplorables did.

1. It could be that a lot of our vote total was more anti-Trump than for our candidate.

A really good candidate would have buried him.

[jmg257]

3. Which coincides with all the trump votes that were more anti-hillary.

For whatever reasons.

[Charles Bukowski]

4. Our candidate WAS really good.

Granted, she wasn't offering pie-in-the-sky stuff like Bernie, but her platform was still superb.

[butdiduvote]

6. Thank you.

[brewens]

7. What did she offer the Goldman Sachs people? I know you don't know. None of us do.

We didn't know how good our candidate was without that did we? Not everything is in the platform. If her speeches made her look good to them, and should have to me, I should know what she said to them shouldn't I?

[Charles Bukowski]

8. Several of her speeches were leaked by Bernie Breh favorite Assange.

She said nothing of consequence.

[Bettie]

9. Her platform could not stand against

25+ years of PR concentrating on making people distrust and dislike her.

That vast right wing conspiracy? It was real and it worked.

It has nothing to do with who she is, nothing to do with what she's done, but everything to do with people's perception of her.

That perception has been carefully managed by those who saw something in her that was frightening to them.

A lot of people do not even recall a time when Clinton was not under investigation for something...she never actually did anything to warrant any of it, but it exists and created a narrative. People who are not politically aware (and many who are) hear the constant background noise of it and it sinks in, it creates the idea, way at the back of their minds that she's untrustworthy.

Again, not her fault, but it was a concentrated effort and it worked.

14. it's mostly white men who hate her.and they were Trump's biggest supporters

[applegrove]

2. Alt whitey seems to want liberals to fight amongst ourselves. On the

Discussionist they are actually trying to spread the rumour that liberal and democratic renewed civic engagement is really the death of us. Those alt whites. They never stop spreading rumours.

[democratisphere]

5. Gag order.

[mountain grammy]

10. This election was fixed, hacked, rigged, whatever..

I'll believe it until the day I die. 62 million deplorables do not win a national election. Did you know, deplorables is not really a word? I get a red line every time I use it. They're not really human either.

[Cha]

11. Jill Stein spoiled the 2016 election for Hillary Clinton Gave us trump

Jill Stein's voters in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin helped Donald Trump win the White House

For those who worried that insufficient liberal support for Hillary Clinton would wind up electing Donald Trump, you were right.

According to a tweet from Cook Political Report’s Dave Wasserman on Thursday, the margin of difference separating the president-elect from his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton in the three “Blue Wall” states — Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan — was less than the total number of votes received by Green Party nominee Jill Stein in each of those states:

Yeah, that was deplorable

[KT2000]

12. this is true

and the proof of this is that tRump has his audience and base that he continues to address. What drives them has nothing to do with the extreme left.

[rufus dog]

13. Exactly

And GOD FUCKING DAMN IT!

IT WASN'T THE FUCKING CANDIDATE

QUIT BEING AS FUCKING IGNORANT AS A REPUBLICAN!

THEY FUCKING HATE LIBERALS AND DEMOCRATS.

For fucks sake this is getting old. They would have come out against Bernie and anyone else who ran.

BECAUSE THEY FUCKING HATE LIBERALS!

They were FUCKING pissed off that a BLACK MAN was popular.

AGAIN, GOD FUCKING DAMN IT! KNOCK OFF THE BULLSHIT AND FIGURE IT OUT.
