The thing is, we also forget how close the media (answer everyone else) was to being right. Less than 100,000 spread across three states that Clinton had no business losing. Those swing the other way and she wins by more than three million votes and he could conversations is about a death rattle of nationalism and that racism doesn’t work in american politics anymore (a trip least at the National level)

I always go back to 2004. Only the election fraud in Ohio (that freaked Karl Rove out when it didn’t work in 2012) prevented Kerry from winning an Electoral College victory while losing the Popular Vote by 3,000,000—exactly like tRump. Does anybody think that would have been allowed to stand?

Dubya’s fixers were expecting that to happen in 2000 and were all set to hit the ground running to turn it back—they were caught flat-footed when it turned out the other way around. The Electoral College bullshit will only ever work for Republicans. You can take that to the bank.
