Honestly if the RNC had just put its foot down in 2016 and said “no, we will not be associated with Trump because the man is a fucking idiot” they would have eaten the loss in 2016, but would probably be in a much better place electorally now.
They still probably world have won in 2016. Every person in the DNC is blind to how much everyone, everyone outside the party absofuckinglutely hates Hillary Clinton.
It goes back to the 90s with her. They (republicans if practically every strip) hated that she would have the audacity to be anything other than a dinner host while First Lady. She is a massively polarizing figure and, literally, polls worse among center (by US standards) and right voters than “nobody”.

They needed to stop the tea party in 2010. This is all follow on from that.

Why? Because of Fox smears?

So basically typical GOP / chucklefuck misogyny.
Fuck those people with rusty axes.
I think Hillary would’ve made a good president. Ok she’s a real backroom political mover and possibly more of a hawk than I’d like but nevertheless.
