Fuck off Hillary. Nobody asked you. You fumbled 2016 and gave us this asshole in the first place, and you should have the decency to hide in shame the rest of your miserable life.
She can express it, but she needs to be prepared to be reminded that she was uniquely able to lose to trump in 2016, and her stealing the nomination from Sanders is one major contribution to why we are here
There's a lot more reasons why we're here than Hilary Clinton. If you can't get over it we're going to keep backsliding, again, and again, if we ever even make it out alive

Got damn, I didn't know that. I apologize and retract the part of my statement about Hilary, but do maintain we might not make it out of this alive
The same Wikileaks documents also show that Hillary and the DNC rigged the primary against Bernie (very briefly mentioned in the article).
Not a one of us will make it out of here alive.
That's a fact of life in this realm we must eventually experience.
She made Trump her pied piper because he was the only one she had a shot against and then she failed. Trump is quite literally Hillary Clinton's fault. He would not have won 2016 if she hadn't narcissistically demanded that it was her turn to be president.
Oh please. The DNC is done. We need to move on.
I wish parties would just die and that we can use a better voting system, but we need a path to get there.
If the party is determined to keep making the same mistakes that they never addressed, they will continue losing. They seem fine with that.
"Yes she having cheated, but that cheating helped her win, and because she won, therefore she didn't cheat"
Is some dumb fucking logic
Not when it involves the person ruining this country that she put in charge. She can fuck right off.
She didn’t put him in charge. The voters did. Own your shitty decision.
Facts are evading you here too?
She played a part. You're being dishonest.
What decision? I worked against Trump entering office every step of the path. Hillary Clinton demonstrably did not. She propped him up during the 2016 primaries because she thought she would have an easier time beating him.
You're the second account to tell me to take responsibility for Trump with no justification. Something smells.
Clinton beat the only candidate she cared about beating in 2016.
I'm sorry, fucking what? I voted for Bernie in 2016 primary, Hillary in 2016 general, Bernie in 2020 primary, Biden in 2020 general, uncommitted in 2024 primary, and Harris in 2024 general. I donate to progressive campaigns across the country every election.
You're a sycophant defending the Democratic Party's extremely authoritarian practices in primaries and blaming others for the sins the party and its elites.
It’s funny that these assholes ask those of us with no power to take responsibility while letting those people with power off the hook

And we're expressing our opinions.
And your opinion shows you infantilize yourself from responsibility as an adult who votes. Own who you voted for. That’s on you. Your opinion is shit.
Hey, just expressing my opinion. Just like anyone else.
Opinions not tempered by facts are fantasy.
Other terms for your responses here.
Prejudice, Uninformed Opinion(s), Bias, False Assertion(s), Armchair Critic, and Misinformation.
Welcome to public forums.
She didn't fumble anything. They wouldn't allow Bernie to run is all it came down to and Hillary is one of the most corrupt out there. Perfect for office
The Clinton campaign in 2008 boosted the birther conspiracy shit that trump rode to power.
Her 2016 campaign boosted the man himself because she thought he would be easier to beat than Jeb Bush.
only a woman could receive the most votes and nearly a decade later have a 14 year old boy on lemmy be all "yo dawg she totally fumbled that shit she needs to hide in shame"
Americans would literally blame anyone but themselves for their stupid ass mistakes.
That's american exceptionalism. Everyone except me.
She didn’t give you this asshole. You voted for him. That’s how voting works.
For the record, I did vote for her in the actual election, but that is an extremely oversimplified analysis of how Trump got elected.
Yeah, more people in the right states voted for him. But her and the DNC fucking with the primaries, offering zero conciliation to progressives and arrogantly assuming Trump didn't stand a chance play a huge factor. For the vaunted "most qualified candidate ever" this was her race to lose, and blaming it on sexism is just a thought terminating cliche at this point.
