In all seriousness, if during the primary Sanders supporters had been able to harshly criticize HRC without conjuring cries of "sexism" and "bernie bro!!1!" maybe we wouldn't all be breathing the fumes from the dumpster fire that is the Trump presidency.

Serves them right for spending 8 years calling anyone who criticized Obama a racist.

Also the audience being RNC donors reminded me that every time someone tried to stack the cards against him, it made him stronger.

Filling audiences with RNC donors while denying his supporters tickets, CNN and MSNBC refusing to even loving mention anything bad about Hillary Clinton with a full schedule of anti-Trump poo poo (and actively coordinating with the Hillary campaign for favorable stories towards her), or the loving second debate when Martha Raddatz and Anderson Cooper came to Hillary's aid and became the 3rd and 4th debaters. When both Hillary and Trump were getting equally poo poo on he got hurt, and when they actively ignored Hillary to poo poo on Trump it helped him bigly.

Plus it's brutally effective. Let's say a minimum of 5% of republicans believe in poo poo like "the mafia killed JFK" or "moonlandings were fake" and they think there is a slight chance this is true : that voter will never ever vote for Ted Cruz now, and probably will vote for Donald Trump instead for revealing the truth.

*Suspect was last seen trying to break and enter the White House gate but eluded capture by the secret service. Rough description of the perp is older white male, 6' , 250 lbs, grey hair dressed in an undersized hoodie. Smells distinctively of avacados and left a trail of "small turtles" prior to eluding capture along with tagging the words "please clap" onto the sidewalk. He is considered to be "a mess and a waste" according to one eyewitness. More details forthcoming.*

It was part of his campaign fundraiser to sell guac bowls and he had a special guacamole recipe. From the literal whitest dude ever. Couple that with weird antics like giving little turtles to small children to show them that "slow and steady wins the race" and the internet (and Trump) had a field day with him. Rest in guacamole.

Why don't you perform zazen, facing a wall?

quote:

One evening in early September 2015, Robby Mook stopped in at a private home in the coastal paradise of Bolinas, California, for what promised to be a relaxing break from the frenetic pace of running a campaign operation a continent away in Brooklyn. Instead, he ran into a buzz saw in the form of Susie Tompkins Buell, a heavy-hitting donor and close friend of Hillary. As the fog of summer was still clearing, when few people paid close attention to politics, the New York Times had just published a story about a coming Clinton campaign strategy shift. Hillary would “show more humor and heart,” the headline declared.

In the piece, Clinton’s top aides—including Mook and Palmieri—admitted that there had been significant blunders made by the campaign, notably the months-long denial that there was a problem with her use of a private e-mail server. And that the American public perceived her as too robotic and aloof. But, they promised, the real Hillary would emerge following Labor Day weekend.

That Hillary, they claimed, was relatable to nearly anyone, downright funny, and didn’t take herself too seriously. More than anything, they said, she was authentic. The image makeover was timed to preview Clinton’s appearances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and countless other lighthearted programs where Clinton would dance the Nae Nae, reveal that she kept up with the Kardashians and Homeland, and ask hosts to playfully tug on her hair.

Buell was displeased. By announcing a strategy to make Hillary seem more real, her team had actually achieved the opposite effect. Clinton supporters across the country read it the same way. It was a pure what-the-gently caress moment—a major unforced error that buttressed qualms about Hillary’s honesty and trustworthiness at a terrible time.
