Did you read the speech section? Do you believe she isn’t inclusive of them when she says we have to empathize with them and understand them?

Maybe I was not the target demographic because I didn’t have to be persuaded to vote for the sane and normal candidate instead of the racist sexist asshole? It doesn’t seem like a heavy lift to start there, but

I think the problem here may be that you are trying to have a normative conversation and I’m having a purely descriptive one. I’m talking about what happened and why it did. Not whether it should have

But you said Clinton was exclusionary when she was not. I see no evidence she was dismissive of any voter other than the racists: The “basket of deplorables” for whom there was no redemption or persuasion to be had.

She specifically said the other half of his supporters were good people who might be misguided or need our empathy and understanding. How is that not inclusive of them?

You really don’t see how patronizing that is?

I said her messaging was exclusionary. And more her larger campaign and sphere of media surrogates. The message of “if you don’t support HRC, you’re a racist, sexist, troglodyte” doesn’t go over so well, even if it’s true

That’s not at all what she said. And it’s not what her surrogates we’re saying either. You’re just misrepresenting her intentionally now.
