      @HeerJeet thinks this is a bad take and Trump’s racial appeals were just fine. To be emulated in fact.pic.twitter.com/qGcX8LM4D5

      I think he's just making the same mistake that many others are making, conflating a quote about Trump's campaign message (what Clinton actually said) with one about his supporters (what Clinton didn't say).

      I don't believe that. The headline sets up a juxtaposition that is perhaps designed to confuse people. But if you read the actual quote, it's largely unobjectionable.

      I think Clinton's speech rather than headline is problem. She took true fact (that she did well in more dynamic areas) but spun it in a way that sounds like she doesn't realize failure of her campaign.

          I don't understand how you can read the quote that way. Here's what she's saying:https://twitter.com/ThePlumLineGS/status/973516068378628096 …

          Here's how I read Hillary's latest outrageous quote: I won parts of country where immigration/digitalization are driving growth/prosperity; and Trump ran racist campaign that exploited struggles of people from areas being economically left behind by vowing to turn back clock.

          The votes picked up will be the ones Trump and the Republicans lose. Unless Dems abandon Social Justice.

          ...Where by 'failure' you evidently mean getting more than 3 million more votes that Trump. Ok, got it.

          So, in your opinion, how much did right wing media slander hurt her? How much did Comey? How much did being a woman? Strong hints about the first two in her polling, no?
