Another case of what are facts and who cares, right? It's becoming more and more common that a pop vote winner doesn't become the pres - as I've pointed out more than a few times a republican has only won the pop vote once in the past 30 years or so, and yet.
The grand irony being that "economic anxiety" provided just enough grist, aided and abetted by hostile foreign powers and a traitorous campaign....for an institution designed to explicitly put a white supremacist thumb on the scales of democracy to subvert the very same.
But this, as you describe it, is fair and square, because she was uncompetitive.
That, or this last election demonstrated an increasingly exploited flaw in our republic that we should probably do something about, rather than a deficiency in the candidacy of a habitually safe centrist dem. You held your nose and voted for her..I didn't. She didn't need my vote, she was going to win the pop without it, and my vote would not have prevented her from losing the presidency, either. Something has gone awry, lol.
