      BTW, in PA, OH, MN, ME, NY, etc you had the same dynamic of traditionally Repub areas w a decent % of college grads & higher moving several points from Obama to Clinton, but a complete collapse of the Dem vote in the lower educational attainment rural white working class counties

      "For every blue-collar Democrat we lose in western Pennsylvania, we will pick up two moderate Republicans in the suburbs in Philadelphia" -- Chuck Schumer. His math was a bit faulty.

      Ergo, Henry Kissinger? Who cares what Schumer said publicly. And did he say that before or after the Comey letters?

      No, the lesson is that Clinton geared her campaign in a way that demobilized many previous Dem voters with a view to winning GOP voters, which didn't work out the way she planned. So those who advocated this strategy should take responsibility for what they did.

      "On race/identity Hillary ran to the left of Obama" her considerable baggage (super-predators etc) made her a bad carrier for this message, something GOP & Russian propaganda exploited to discourage African-American voters, especially young ones.

      Again, to back that up, do you have any of those exotic artifacts known as “numbers?” Jeet, have you ever canvassed, or watched a focus group? Over the last ten years, have you spoken to any Americans not in greater NYC & not on Twitter?

      Dana, you're defending a campaign that had the worst Democratic Party electoral showing since 1988 against a realty show buffoon who boasted on tape of grabbing women by the pussy. Do you need numbers to know that campaign fucked up?

      She won the popular vote. Maybe it’s hard to win third terms and trump didn’t quite underperform enough. Dems did well last two years in any case, so doesn’t seem like there’s a permanent problem w their approach...

      The popular vote and $2 won't get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks. Dems performed well in last 2 years because Trump is widely hated. He was widely hated in 2016 too but Clinton managed to lose to him, which suggests a flawed campaign strategy.

          Yes, let’s totally ignore the fact that Special Counsel Mueller definitively stated the Russian government “extensively and systematically” worked to help Trump and Trump’s campaign manager gave a Russian spy 75 pgs of polling data on the battleground states.

          And of course the person who made it most evident, through detailed warnings, was Hillary Clinton herself.

          Or maybe hated incumbents work somewhat differently. (Lots of research suggests they do)

          Wait but isn’t 2020 likely to be manifestly different because of heavier erosion of GOP support in the suburbs which didn’t happen in 2016?

          You are attempting to conflate "Hillary had an imperfect campaign" (Duh, all candidates do, including Trump who lost the popular vote) with "My both sidesism is perfect." One does not entail the other. Didn't you write "Hillary the hawk"? Well Trump just ordered an attack on Iran

          There are more factors than just opining on flawed campaign strategy. If more voters were informed and had they saw Trump's BS from day one, it was obvious that he would be a disaster for the US. I think HRC would've maintained status quo in many ways & improved a few things.
