Lol doesnt make you look good since it frames you as ignoring the struggling parts of the country. Whether thats true or not or whether your policies would have helped them makes you look like you dont care.

But yes the parts of the country that contribute the most to the economic well being of this country mostly voted Clinton.

i am tired of politics for the rest of my life its a bunch of slimeballs telling people what they want to hear so they can get elected to satisfy their hubris and need to be important

Well I guess shes not running again. Her old campaign staff wouldve probably stopped this from happening.

Apparently those empty places cast a lot of votes.

Well less votes overall but more electoral

"I win the coast, I win, you know, Illinois and Minnesota, places like that."

Wow! I wonder if CNN's talking heads will start calling her stupid like they do with how Trump speaks.

Probably not.

the bar on political commentary by politicians has dropped so far since trump became a politician that this is honestly nothing noteworthy.

I've seen trump voters on here argue that the literal geographical spread of his base means he deserved the win regardless of the amount of voters living there or whether he won the popular vote. They also think California has too many voters and thus shouldn't count. (Texas is not subject to the same scrutiny for whatever reason).

It's perhaps in the top 3 most batshit arguments they make and that's a fucking feat.
