(18,097 posts)what else has been subverted. Hillary was deemed not pure enough. It's not the other way around.
The lies about Hillary and Democrats aren't the first time this has happened. We also had the Nader lies. It's not as if lying about Democrats has worked out in our favor. It doesn't work out. Whatever excuses you have about other states, the fact remains that Clinton was maligned and viciously attacked, and that took a toll. People aren't going to stand for this anymore.
Look what we got out of in 2000 -- Gore was not the same as Bush.
It's common knowledge that if you don't vote for the Democrat, then the Republican gets the White House. Quit calling people liars for just acknowledging common sense and the natural consequence of rejecting "impure" candidates for vanity reasons.
That is the "hate and bile" that needs to be called out. There was a time I used to think I had to read this kind of nastiness to try and see the other side, but I've been disabused of that. Enough is enough with attacking Democrats. That's what you are noticing now.
