Hillary Clinton says misogyny played a role in her loss. Research suggests she might be right.

49. Yes in states like Wisconsin and Michigan

WI is actually a good example of what went wrong. Most assumed it was a lock and Clinton made one stop during the primary and then largely ignored the state (apparently you have to go back to 1972 to find a major candidate that did not campaign there). Trump made several visits, campaigned unusually hard and won. Same thing could be said for MI, I read somewhere that her campaign ran about 1/10 the canvassers that Kerry did in 04, they thought it was a lock and people were asking why is Trump spending so much time there? Well now they have their answer.

Of course it could be that there was still allot of anti establishment sentiment or the rust belt was spooked by a candidate that was for the TPP before they were against it. Either way people have to stop making up excuses if they don't want to see history repeat itself.
