    Shut the fuck up you old hag, you and your party got him elected by running ads supporting him and fucking Bernie in the primaries. Why can’t she just fucking die already

      Yeah, I don’t want to see or hear about Hilary Clinton anymore. She pushed her way in and fucking lost to Trump.

        The fact that she lost the 2008 primary to Obama (basically unknown at that stage) should’ve been a clue that she’s deeply unpopular and unelectable.

        Part of it is because of decades of right wing smears, but part of it is also because she can sound very out of touch at times.

          Yep, it fucking sucks that the GOP propaganda machine spent decades convincing people she was Satan in the flesh, but they did, and it was completely bullheaded to think that could be undone. Especially during an election that was clearly taking a populist tone when she had at that point become the face of the establishment for so many. Goddamn it I still can’t believe we’re in this shit timeline

            She comes across incredibly inauthentic, like she’s playing a character. A lot of people pick up on that easily, which is why it’s so easy for people to not like her, regardless of her political positions

          That tends to happen when people are out of touch.

      Remember when they rigged the primaries and were like “yeah, we can do whatever we want. This isn’t the REAL election yet!” And then they never got court time? Do we really have a choice on who to vote for?

        They…literally can, though? The primaries are not part of the election process outlined in the Constitution. They don’t have to have primaries at all.

        The DNC and RNC are not government entities, they’re private organizations.

          The DNC and RNC are not government entities, they’re private organizations.

          Then why the fuck do they get privileged support from the state for their primaries?

          The answer is that the process is fucking corrupt, and they need to either actually be treated as the powerless private entities they claim to be (i.e. zero involvement in any elections whatsoever – primaries shouldn’t be a thing, and candidates on the general election ballot shouldn’t even have a party listed next to their name) or they need to be held accountable as the de-facto government entities they are.

          Or they need to be destroyed entirely outright; that’s fine too!

          For fuck’s sake, even the Republicans can run a fair vote, nobody in the RNC wanted Trump but when they counted the votes, there it was. The DNC couldn’t run a vote properly if the UN sat at the polling stations and scrutinized the polls. The massive fuckery that occurred during her “coronation” was obvious and disgusting.

          I mean, they can eschew primaries and just appoint whatever candidate they want. But their voters might not like that.

          Not that Democrats have ever given a shit what their voters want.
