I'm willing to credit that. BJ Billy's public persona was carefully crafted and maintained through genuine political acumen. He has many faults, but political tone-deafness is decidedly not one of them. And that was not true of Hillary's campaign at all, which was all negative all the time.
That's going to be a problem if the voters become convinced that the election is about her opponent and not about the voters. What people actually saw was a candidate gleeful about unemployment in industries she considered her class enemies: the coal miners in particular. They saw a candidate determined to cast blame for lack of racial comity on a demographic, white males, that ended up fleeing her in droves. They saw self-absorption, obsessive entitlement, and even a campaign slogan, "Stronger Together", that implied a war against domestic foes. That is the image she presented to voters; the actual candidate they saw scarcely at all.
Of all of the candidates in recent memory she was by far the most disengaged. While Trump was filling arenas with thousands of fired-up voters she was schmoozing with wealthy donors in invitation-only venues. She ended up with money, yes - spent twice what Trump did - but he ended up with the votes.
BJ Clinton would never have made those mistakes.
Hopefully after the new administration comes in they drive a stake through the heart of these two, or three, vampires by killing the crime family foundation.
Not to mention a campaign poster that was an exact replica of the statewide hospital sign. How dumb can you be?
Completely correct. Remember her Art Bell conspiracy theory speech against the Alt-Right and a few weeks later another speech calling Trump supporters deplorables? Pollster Frank Luntz was right: attacking voters directly is political suicide. And Paul Joseph Watson of Infowars.com description of Hillary with "failing health, rampant corruption and sneering, arrogant elitism" proved to be 100% accurate, too. No wonder why "middle America" voted her down in droves.
Couldn’t agree more.
He was a liar but he still knew the difference.
