34. Enough other good people's names

have gone down in history as criminal monsters that I truly fear this will happen to her. Her situation differs from that of all the other he has projectively nicknamed, for at least three reasons.
1. She was so vilified by Republicans for so many years that it started sticking a long time ago - when she was First Lady not of the US, but only of Arkansas. Sure, you and I and Zambero knew it was all false. Too many people who don't follow politics didn't.
2. Even mudslinging lasted so long, from way before Trump, and was so intense that it spread even to some progressives. Sure, she won the popular vote by over 2 million. It should have been by a much larger margin. Too many people sat out - not just Democrats, but independents/unaffiliateds who lean left. They may have no interest in perpetuating the slander, but they also have no interest in debunking it.
3. Sure, the epithet "crooked" may not stick. That doesn't matter if the content of the slander does.
