(11,767 posts)We do our best to minimize the interference from Russian trolls
We do our best to counteract or overcome the voter suppression tactics that Republicans used to disenfranchise Democratic voters
We focus on local policies that will help the most people (typically, any policy that will help poor working Black women, will benefit everyone in society)
We do NOT stop calling out racism, bigotry, and misogyny for political expedience.
As others have said, Hillary lost within a margin of error and cheating in the last election. Lanny Davis puts together a very compelling case about how Comey's interference and the fake email scandal were the margin of victory for Trump in the last few weeks of the election.
This whole idea that "We need Trump voters" is bullshit. We DO need to bring some of the 46% of the population who are eligible to vote, out from their stupor, but that is not who Hillary Clinton is talking about. She is talking about the people who supported and continue to hold out hope for Trump.
