Democrats blame 3rd party voters (rather than their horrible candidate)

Hillary Rodham Clinton may be the worst candidate to ever run for President of the United States.

While the media, the Left, and many #NeverTrump Republicans claimed that Donald Trump was the worst candidate on the ballot, perhaps ever, Election night’s results prove otherwise.

For Hillary, who was the overwhelming favorite to win the presidency and lose it at the last minute, she has surpassed Trump as being the worst.

And instead of focusing on how bad of a candidate Hillary Clinton was, Democrats are trying to blame everything under the sun, particularly 3rd party voters.

How delusional do Democrats have to be to think that this is the fault of third party voters?

While, as it stands, Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, she lost by a wider margin than many people thought in the electoral college to Trump. Voting for a third party candidate may have changed Hillary’s fortune in the electoral college, but it’s on the onus of the candidate to convince undecided voters to come out and support you.

Hillary Clinton failed in that regard. She didn’t have a resounding message that resonated with voters on par with Trump. Hillary, a white woman, couldn’t even win white women, who broke for Trump 53 to 43 percent.

When Clinton got up to give her concession speech earlier on Wednesday, she said, “We have seen that our nation is more deeply divided than we thought. But I still believe in America and I always will. And if you do, then we must accept this result and then look to the future.”

That’s the type of campaign Clinton ran, a campaign of divisiveness and negativity. She didn’t run a campaign on “Hope and Change” like then-Senator Barack Obama did in 2008.

Oddly enough, Donald Trump ran a more Obama-esque campaign than most thought. His message may have sounded different, but it inspired the silent majority to come out to the polls and mark his name on the ballot. And he did it with less money and fewer volunteers. That’s insane.

Also, look at this screenshot from Google.

The idea that somehow 4 million Gary Johnson supporters and 1.2 million Jill Stein supporters would vote for Hillary is absurd.

The Democrats made their own mess, especially after the DNC rigged the primaries against Bernie Sanders. They could’ve picked a better, less scandalous candidate in Sanders, but they didn’t.

They only have themselves to blame for the slaughter that took place on Election Day.
