2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Anyone but Hillary [View all]NanceGreggs
(27,835 posts)76. But, but, but ...
I read on a "True Progressives (TM)" site that Hillary was already planning WWIII, which she was plotting between having her political rivals murdered and while walking around in a body-brace because she's dying of several fatal diseases.
They assured everyone that Trump would be a better choice, because Hill was just so downright evil. In fact, he has some "really good ideas", and would fill his Cabinet with intelligent, well-intentioned people instead of "corporatists" and "establishment" types.
I was even told on FB (by one of the regular posters on said site) that I'd come to realize that "we'll all be better off without Hillary."
For some reason, he's been unusually silent since Trump won. I wonder why?

It didn't help that Panetta's campaign strategy was to take blue collar workers for granted and basically ignore them, especially in the midwest.
