      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.

      Don’t pretend 2018 wasn’t a disaster. We lost Senate seats in Indiana, Missouri, AND North Dakota!

      My view is the Bernie Sanders view: Caring about Comey/Russian interference + role of policy/Hillary flaws is rooted in concern for the future of liberal democracy. Regardless, those who sneer at these concerns should admit that their diagnosis of 2016 is being tested by events.

      There’s also the Q of causality, of sufficient vs necessary factors. None of these things we’re discussing were sufficient, & serious people don’t say it was only one thing. Take away Russia stuff, Hillary wins. Keep the Russia stuff & only the first Comey letter, she wins

      If you have tight election decided by roughly 80,000 votes in 3 states, then in fact many different factor could be decisive. I think David Roberts statement on this is persuasive:https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/11/30/13631532/everything-mattered-2016-presidential-election …

          I think we all agree with this, but that means that Comey/Russia also mattered, which in turn means people should stop sneering about those concerns.

          I've always said that Trump's election, despite losing by 3 million votes, was like a commercial airliner crashing in that multiple systems had to fail. So calling out the media's obsession with her emails isn't a defense of HRC -- or Comey, or the Russians or anything else.

          Thank God when Trump loses in an epic landslide in November it will FINALLY put to bed these whisperings spread by people who should know better that Trump is unbeatable because of 2016.
