    It was exactly the “teach the Democratic party a lesson” which was the only lesson from 2016. Hillary Clinton was not in a popularity contest. And yup, the exact same mistake is being made, but it isn’t the Democratic party’s to make as organizations don’t get a Vote in the General.

      Clinton ignored important Midwest swing States, and ran the most inept election campaign I’ve ever seen.

      It’s documented that they spent the next day figuring out that they’d blame the loss on Russian hackers to protect their consultant class.

      At this point you are literally ignoring history to preemptively blame a group that isn’t responsible for the loss you and everyone else knows is coming.
