And in 2008 Obama beat two people who had better resumés. Obama told people not to settle. I'll just make a hypothesis: a lot of people resent those with "experience", because they perceive them as having access and always getting their foot in the door. I'm not saying that resentment is right, but it's a powerful feeling. Trump was privileged fuckwit who was able to downplay all the ways he had things handed to him. Hillary's attempts to cast herself as a "nasty" iconoclast didn't play as well because she's always been seen as someone who had access to power.

It's weird hildog didn't have the arrow point up, both in reference to the glass ceiling she always whined about and to emphasize we'd be raised up if we voted for her, or something along those lines.

I remember in January I began to see the "I'M WITH HER" tagline being spouted by Hillary supporters and such. Donald Trump responded with this to say: quote:TRUMP: She believes she is entitled to the office. Donald Trump...an rear end in a top hat that loves nothing but to put his names on the sides of buildings, and every other thing on the face of the earth...made himself seem more approachable, more "for the people" than a left wing candidate for President. That's loving sad. Hillary whiffed on her campaign slogan and then whiffed on a comeback to her opponent's slogan. "AMERICA IS ALREADY GREAT". You know who thinks that? People that make 6 figures plus.

Trump may be an idiot baby man in virtually every other arena, but the man does have talent and skill at branding and showmanship. For fucks sake he went on pro wrestling and let himself get hit as part of a bit. Thats like a billion Broad City appearances, except in a way that actually connected and wasnt incredibly pandering. The least charismatic candidate in a generation hand picked a showman to run against. She should have run against Jeb!. That would have been a boring as gently caress GE that would have perfectly played to her policy wonk strengths. It still kills me that 'the most qualified candidate ever*' ran one of the most personal attack focused campaigns in living memory instead of trying to show off her supposed policy strengths. * qualified meaning only winning one elected position by carpet bagging into a safe district and running a spectacularly expensive and negative campaign against her opponent who eventually imploded under his own scandals but still under performing Al Gore

Hillary Clinton going on professional wrestling and staging a hit on her but piledriving the oppo would have been completely nuts. I mean that's what she tried to do but ended up stumbling under the arena with her theme music while the audience and Trump looks on in bewilderment.

Typically when you attack a candidate you're trying to depress the turnout of their supporters, which is why all of the anti-trump commercials focused entirely on racism and sexism rather than his catchphrase literally being "you're fired". If Hillary is going to be marked as corrupt, why not mark Trump as an out of touch billionaire? If you can't splice in you're fired with some closed factory stock footage, you suck.

They dont seem to generally believe Trump did or wanted to do evil things, they believe he wanted to do perfectly good things but in bad ways. So even if they attacked him on ripping off the little guy it would end up being a lovely attack because it would be framed as a "he didnt follow the proper protocals for ripping off the little guy!" thing

Trump has turned in to an utter disaster but during the campaign and early on it seemed like the issue was more that he was open and vulgar in his corruption instead of hiding it behind layers like everybody else. It wasn't what he did, it was that he didn't pretend to be noble about it.

Plus Trump already had the a good retort that he first floated out in the primary, which is that he is smart for having taken advantage of the flaws of the system, he'd have been derelict in his duty to have not done so, and since he knows all the loopholes he knows how best to deal with them.

Their sheer hatred of Bernie is rather fascinating. In hindsight, maybe he should have ran on the Green Ticket or Third Party. Not like he was going to make his standing with these people any worse. Sure as hell is meaningless to them that he helped her campaign and tried to offer her whatever it would take to beat Trump. (But they rejected that, so) gobbagool posted:Even in Brooklyn. Seeing TONS of college kids at Carb Day (tradition in Indianapolis) should have been a red flag in regards to whom was going to win the election.

Nah, running for the Democratic party ticket and then coming out in support of the eventual winner instead of mounting a third party vanity campaign was absolutely the right move move. There's a reason he's currently the most popular politician in America and the Democratic establishment is feeling the need to make moves to fend off or co-opt the influence of his ideas. Creating political change doesn't necessitate converting every deplorable Dem out there.
