Im not sure if you all are serious or taking the piss.
Hillary as the good guy? I get trump is a loose cannon but Hillary is a corporate shill and hardly a Democrat. She's the definition of corrupt crony capitalism and it's a blessing thar she lost.
In any case, time to move forward.
Maybe so, but you'd have to realize that most Democrats are still going to be "corrupt crony capitalists," if you define Hillary as such. The money-dominated system still enthralls most candidates. Only a bold revolutionary with some charisma like Bernie Sanders can break through the spell. How many such leaders are there in America? Given the nature of America, with its retrograde attitudes so dominant in the half of the country that controls the most Senate and Electoral votes, we must all remember there's a limit to how good a candidate we can get, or that the Democrats can put up. I am as idealistic as anyone, but a little realism about the country we live in might have saved us from the disaster that is befalling us now.
