posts here in 2016, and a general attitude of treating criticisms of the campaign's tactics as "concern trolls" when it was clear there were glaring red flags staring us in the face as early as that Spring. I sadly saw a similar attitude here with supporters of certain candidates in this past Primary which was obviously unjustified as well.
