Clinton wasn't a "piss poor candidate". She won the nomination. I voted for her happily. I think she would have been an extremely good president.
No, she did not lose.
Don't confuse the constitutional intent of the electoral college to act as a check on mob rule by vote, as being the the same as winning the popular vote. SHE still won the popular vote by almost 3 million.
I'd only agree that her mistake was not hitting those swing states in the last days. But she still got more votes than Trump nationwide.
