      After doing weeks of phone banking and door knocking, my read is that it was the economy and being unwilling to break the mould. They were more of the same and they were uninspiring.

      It was so rare that I would run into people who wanted to talk about foreign policy.

      You’re a fool if you think that’s the reason why.

      The average American voter doesn’t give a shit about brown people dying in the Middle East.

      It’s only about your football team winning, oh and women are too “emotional”.

      Are we forgetting that even as a corporate puppet establishment Dems AND a woman, Clinton got like ~4 million more votes than the Dipshit did. People DID vote for her. It’s just our broken as fuck since 1929 electoral college that prevented that from counting.
