16. Hillary Clinton was an absolute warrior

And she lost.

I don't know what the answer is other than the Democratic Party needs to come up with a new strategy for supporting and promoting their candidate.

How did the GOP get a completely bankrupt, corrupt, and baffoonish man who had 34 felonies, a rape conviction, and incited an insurrection re-elected???

Anyway, I'm just rambling. I guess the bottom line is that whoever ends up being our candidate in 2028, I hope the Democratic Party figures out a better way to promote them and a better way to campaign for them.
