...her exact words were, "you have to have a public position and a private position" or something like that...

What makes you think I didn't take notice?

What makes you think Hilary was my preferred candidate from the democratic party?

So you cut your nose off to spite your face?

Hilary only behaved like politicians have behaved since forever (actually she wasn't as bad). The only mistake she made was being female so that her normal politicians behaviour suddenly became unforgivable.

Being a sexual assaulting racist lying bully wasn't a deal breaker for you.

Umm Ess, not sure Bernie was any of those things. There were people that voted for Bernie in primaries who then voted for Clinton in the general election (Ex could be among this group), just as there were Clinton voters in 2008 who voted for Obama.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ...

I'm confused? Bernie was a sexual assaulting racist? (just kidding- Es it just seems we had a misunderstanding on my point)
I guess my point is, I did not prefer Hilary be the democratic party candidate, vs. Bernie. But given the choice between Hilary and Trump- I was Hilary all the way.

...There were people that voted for Bernie in primaries who then voted for Clinton in the general election (Ex could be among this group), just as there were Clinton voters on 2008 who voted for Obama.

Ex is among this group yes. I'd never have voted for Trump.

Sorry, I got you mixed up with someone else. I hadn't had my morning tea. There are a couple of people here who wanted Bernie, but voted for Trump when they couldn't have him.

I hope the above is not true. :(

Sigh. I know others already responded, but COME ON, Es! You do know at least one more reason she lost, don't you? Sending surrogates to certain states she thought were guaranteed instead of going herself? States that Trump flipped? You did learn of this, yes?

All those little details add up, sure, but only in a normal election. Trump was not a normal candidate she was up against. All those details that people say are the reason she lost would have been overlooked and not mattered if a man had been running against Trump. He was that bad a candidate. He did the most egregious things and it didn't cost him the election.

I am 100% sure that although sexism wasn't the only reason for her defeat, it was the the reason her flaws couldn't be forgiven as they had been overlooked in so many candidates before her.

Do you really think that I don't know that women have to be better than better? To be purer than pure just to level the playing field? America elected a trainwreck of a man rather than a flawed woman.

Somebody get chuck YOU! schumer a tissue.

Continued rising debt.
Continued rising unemployement.
Continued rising terrorism.
Continued sound of SUCKING (from jobs going over seas)
Flat income.

and the stock market keeps making the rich richer.

This country has needed some BOLD action since Bush 41 said "no new taxes" and then let the democrats raise taxes. Trump is taking action.

Trump is the first to stand up against the destruction of this country. You're witnessing real leadership.

It's going to be a bumpy ride. But I welcome it. We'll be better off in the long run. I'd bet on it.

Amen, brother, Amen.
I bet on it with my vote.
Damned right I did.

Yes.
Who's gonna pay for all this?
Continued rising debt. Guess who.
Continued rising unemployement. Who needs workers nowadays?
Continued rising terrorism. Hmm. Seriously!
Continued sound of SUCKING (from jobs going over seas). Well lower the US corporation tax is a starter.

The US will have a flat income many years to come.

No, see, this is where you refer to the multi-national corporatist Republicans and the eventual and increasingly multi-national corporatist Democrats that brought on all he is talking about (as opposed to identity politics) and his Lord is really the guy that isn't going to turn around but ramp it up!

It's looking increasingly likely this guy isn't going to last long at all. The rumors are flying already, talks of unhappy rogue staff, leaking information that's becoming increasingly reliable etc.

It's bad when you've gone so far right that you're even scaring the $hit out of republicans.

(It's also bad when you have lived to see someone so extreme actually make it into the office of presidency- many Americans need a stern slap on the wrist for this one.)
