In the era of Donald Trump, how can you say who the American public won’t elect?

:russ:
To my understanding, the popular vote was for Hillary.

The electoral vote was for Trump.

How was Trump able to win the Presidency when Hilary won the popular vote?

Politics are rigged and always will be.

Unless she got some of that presidential dna in her bloodline.

This thread is a moot point.

it came down to individual states like it always does, it wasn't "rigged". trump was a national joke until like July of that year so he couldnt have rigged anything :dead:

hillary clinton has no problem with the electoral system :yeshrug: she used it herself in her own primary

:russ: President.

Crowley should have actually tried to campaign and he may have won. Of a 750K district, a fraction of that voted and the socialist will impact their lives more than any other elected official should she win

Nationally, this has some impact. If Democrats were hoping for a Blue wave, this likely fractured it. Dems are experiencing a schism of their own. There was a lot of big money behind Crowley that will not get behind Cortez. Her platform isn't realistic and her anti Israel views (that I support) will not garner her much support from the establishment.

The district was never going to go Republican, but she'll likely be nothing more than an obstructionist and an ultra left mouthpiece who has already given precious sound bites.

Single payer healthcare, free college education, job guarantees, and getting rid of private prisons not good for black people?

:jbhmm:

Half of that shyt she won't get accomplished. Same promises. Same failures.

She'll be sure that hispanics/latinos are prioritized constituents while blacks are sealed as a permanent underclass.

Word to her stance on immigration.
