      2. My biggest mistake in 2016 was massively underestimating intensity of hostility towards Hillary Clinton on both left & right.

      3. Trump brought together enough of GOP coalition to win & Clinton's lost enough of Dem coalition for same reason: Clinton's unpopularity

      4. I had read articles making plausible arguments about Clinton's weaknesses as a candidate like this from @karpmjhttps://www.jacobinmag.com/2016/02/karp-bernie-sanders-electability-clinton-republicans-trump-election/ …

      6. I had tended to discount such articles because, based on 2008/2012, I assumed Dems would run super competent campaign (GOTV etc).

          Shattered also showed she tried to run her campaign like Obama - but 2008 isn't 2016 and she isn't Obama 😕🤷🏼‍♀️

          7. In Dem primaries I preferred Sanders for political reasons but thought (wrongly) that Clinton had better shot at winning presidency

          Black voters didn't turn out for Clinton the way they did for Obama. Hmm I wonder why.

          yeah, thought Clinton ground campaign wouldn't be Obama-level, but was still surprised how absolutely incompetent it was...

          ...and not just in rust belt states, but here in NC too. Real basic mistakes like absolute lack of coordination w locals.
