The president is trailing Donald Trump in six of seven swing states as a majority of poll respondents see the economy worsening by the end of the year.
Or asserting “everyone who disagrees with me is just calling me a Russian bot, definitely not putting up detailed reasoned arguments which I then pretend aren’t happening”
Or repeatedly falling back on “OBVIOUSLY the economy is doing terrible, we all agree” instead of looking at historic union gains and low-wage earner gains even under punishing Covid inflation which yes they’re not nearly enough but are actual progress in the right direction after God knows how long of nothing
Or posting clearly maliciously false criticism of Biden on things like marijuana or union support, and then falling back on “I’M ONLY TRYING TO HELP THE DEMOCRATS WITH MY WELL MEANING PUSHING OF HIM TO THE LEFT” and claiming they’re being punished for their constructive criticism
Ask me if I’m salty about the overall nature of the discussion 🙂
She lost because she’s unlikable in her bones and huge swaths of people of all political persuasions are officially and permanently over corporate, establishment status quo candidates in general. Those candidates simply cannot bring people out to vote any more and Dems will keep falling further and further behind until they understand that business as usual and lesser evil isn’t cutting it.
The Russians bots only ensured that right-wing morons were motivated to go out in enough numbers to beat Clinton’s anemic, half-assed campaign.
And because she unapologetically fucked over 95% of the committed Democratic support base who’s in it for genuine and heartfelt reasons when she fucked over Bernie Sanders
Don’t forget about that bullshit. Trump was still worse to a catastrophic degree, but that was her election to lose and she did everything in her greedy little disingenuous power to make sure she would lose it
That seems to be what Hillarys campaign thought when she did a victory in Cali while trump went to the battleground states that won him the electoral college.
But Hillary’s campaign not understanding how elections work doesn’t mean reality is wrong.
Hillary lost because of Russian election interference. She won the popular vote.
Russian bot farms spammed the internet with their talking points in strategic areas to influence the electoral vote.
That is why it is important to check the history of accounts who post to see if they are pushing specific talking points.

Do you think that decides the American president?

Winning the popular vote doesn’t matter for shit in our system. It’s like saying I should be president because my mom voted for me.
