    Pollsters also said Hillary Clinton was going to win in a landslide

    No, that’s another commonly believed distortion of reality. Pollsters concluded that there was a high probability that she would win the popular vote, which she did.

    That the polls were about the EC and that they mentioned anything about the size of victory is gross misunderstanding at best and much more likely a convenient way to deliberately sow doubt about data that proves leftist policy positions much more popular than your own, whether you’re a Republican or Republican Lite like the Dem leadership.

    It’s pretty hard to believe that bona-fide progressives wouldn’t vote for a bona-fide progressives

    Which means that bona-fide progressives, especially young voters, were discouraged by the constant fawning of the media constantly declaring someone who was NEVER a bona-fide progressive the inevitable winner and didn’t risk their job or jump through a ton of out of state voting hoops (in the case of college students) to vote against someone that both the commentators and the referees had already all but declared the winner.

    DID vote for both Hillary and Biden in the general at MUCH higher rates than Hillary’s followers did in 08, though.

    …and the rest of what you said was also as if it was taken directly from the notes of Neera Tanden, so I’m just gonna stop wasting my breath now. Have the day you deserve.
