46. "i always said that 2016 was more of an indictment of our electorate" In response to In response to 44 Wed Nov-08-17 04:13 PM by Reeq
than it was an indictment of hillary as a candidate.
hillary no doubt had her flaws and people say she was a horrible candidate because she lost to trump (even tho she got the 2nd highest vote total ever and turned many repub/romney districts blue). but why did so many people view trump as a desirable choice in the 1st place?
other than race...the biggest voter behavior fault line in this election was education. whites with no college degree swung sharply to trump. how come we dont 'blame' them for his win?
theres a reason repubs continuously attack and weaken education, arts, etc. they gotta sow the soil their base is planted on.
