I'm not going to repeat myself on insinuations and straw man arguments that you insist on repeating even after I've addressed them. She didn't use RW smears.
And I have no doubt that Hillary would probably have been either indicted or at least had impeachment hearings started by a Republican House if she had been elected. Don't you? I have no doubt that the GOP would be even more relentless on Hillary than they were on Obama and would milk the email "scandal" as long as they could while in her first term.
Why do you and others continue to give SS so much amazing power and influence? lol IMO she is being used as a lightening rod to excuse a lot of losing. One woman, celebrity though she is, didn't even register against the power of hate radio and faux news that built a fake criminal profile of Hillary over decades. Plus the Russian hacks, the FB fake news, Comey, and of course the orange king himself with blustering lies every day about her. Add to that the Dems false confidence in their votes in the rust belt states and Hillary's perceived close ties to Wall Street and her hawkish foreign policy.
But if you have any constructive criticism of the party you most closely align with because they keep losing, even though the majority actually agrees with them on most issues and are at all frustrated with that, you are breaking some kind of loyalty law? If you see no problem with that or see no room for improvement and we should all be lock step with the status quo, which is one big reason WHY they lost the support in many regions, then I'd question just who is ok with "hand(ing) the keys to all three branches of Government to fucking Donald Trump" going forward.
Yes while we were all content with reaching for the moon, she mistakenly or naively thought of reaching for the stars. I will never disparage someone for that. Or blame one individual for the loss in November.
We will agree to disagree. We all want the same thing in the end, or close to it. You, me, Hillary, Bernie, Obama, Sarandon all want an end to sexism, racism, homophobia, islamophobia, etc. and a fairer and healthy society for all.
