She was pretty clearly trying to make the point that she felt entitled to have other people vote for the sole candidate who wasn't actively going to try to murder and oppress the marginalized and the powerless.

I'm not sure why Political Scientist, Lawyer, and Hillary Supporter Candice Aiston would insist that people had a moral obligation to write in Bernie Sanders, but, well, it's a funny old world.

Pod Save America who was literally right about to interview Hillary was still able to have a somewhat critical analysis of her book. FiveThirtyEight podcast on the other hand was basically Peter Daou radio hour. Harry Enten was the only person willing to entertain any criticism of Hillary whatsoever.

I also like how you can thesaurus your way from "sometimes criticize Hillary Clinton" to "continually degrade a woman candidate"

thanks for calling the universal voter registration hotline. as a registered democrat, you have been automatically enrolled in the TWENTY TWENTY GENERAL ELECTION to vote for PRESIDENTIAL candidate MARK ZUCKERBERG. you may hang up now and your vote will be cast. if you are a racesexist and would like to change your vote, please remain on the line. note this called is being recorded and you will be required to declare your racesexism before changing your vote. the current wait time is approximately TWO HOURS

no better way to turn apathy into antipathy than by calling people sniveling dipshits

I don't understand how they think this works after the backlash after Clinton said that half of Trump voters fall in the basket of deplorables, which is an overstatement only inaccurate as far as the percentage

I wondered if anyone else heard this episode too. It was a little bizarre. FiveThirtyEight is usually tough on Hillary, but they put on kid gloves for the conversation about “What Happened”. Harry was forced into a ‘bad cop’ role, and he didn’t seem particularly excited to be the only one in the room arguing the negatives of Her campaign.

Their main point was that the media’s current backlash against Hillary is being made for the wrong reasons. It’s potentially an interesting take, but I don’t think they did a good job of fleshing out their argument.

Closing by saying that no better candidates were available was the perfect play towards pissing off Bernie supporters.

Dunno, it's pretty much inherently correct that there were no candidates better at winning a democratic primary.

Ability to win a primary isn't necessarily predictive of ability to win in the general though and it was weird for Harry to conflate the two because as such a stats nerd he ought to know better.
