Democrats are so inept. 2016 it only took unprecedented recklessness by the head of the FBI, & his campaign conspiring w Russia to lose to Trump. In 2018 they didn’t gain more seats than Dems did in 1974. And now Biden is almost certain to not win by as large a margin LBJ did.

I love how you are committed to the idea that the Clinton campaign in 2016 did nothing wrong and it's all other people's fault.

Thing is, I’ve tweeted like 12-15 things I think they did wrong. Every campaign does. [He prob wouldn’t understand my critiques bc he’s never been around a campaign] But he’s apparently one of those simpletons who think if you lost you sucked & if you won you were great

No, I think there are good campaigns that can lose (I thought Kerry ran a pretty campaign in 2004 & Gore in 2000). But considering disaster of Trump winning in 2016, it's important that Dems do some self-reflection rather than blame Comey etc. (which is true but not sufficient)

Yeah, what’s striking to me is that other than a year or two sometime a few decades ago he’s never lived in the US, he hasn’t traveled in the US much, he’s never reported politics or campaigns, & I’m not sure if he’s even been here—or at least anywhere outside of NYC—in years.

It's true that I'm just a twitter clown but that still doesn't answer the basic point that the Democrats would do well to look at mistakes they made in 2016 rather than simply blame outside forces. A good rule in life: try to think about things you can control.

How much of that is thermostatic reaction to Trump being a deeply unpopular and incompetent president? Which makes question of 2016 loss more important.
