It wasnt that close. It took a hundred things together to lose by that margin in the battlegrounds.

She lost by 70000 votes. That's insanely close.

And... he's banned. Sweet.

This was perhaps the greatest factor.

Lol. Pushing that feminist agenda. Every time a woman doesn't get what she wants it's because of sexism.

If you isolate just the battleground margin, sure. But then you have to scale the fraction of the population sample you're looking at, since 95% of votes dont count then

The fact is, not only did she lose by larger margins in battlegrounds than close races like Gore, but she came very close to losing some long blue bastions. You cant just look at the electoral map and ignore that minnesota went 46-45 when the next closest race was MN being the only state in the nation not to go reagan in 1984 and has been blue since 72

It was insanely close to being a landslide

Hurr durr

It's the default SJW position. Hillary wins, America is no less sexist, they just stifled their sexism because of other motivations. Hillary loses, the main reason is sexism, apart from all the obvious reasons she lost.

One of the only benefits of Trump winning is that we won't have to hear the constant sexism accusations for 4-8 years.

She set women back at least 20 years. Its ironic that Hillary epitomizes all the things feminists decry as being sexist stereotypes of women in power- that wearing a pantsuit and being aggressive in the workplace makes women get called a heartless unlikeable bitch while men get commended as proactive. Yet, Hillary actually was hubristic and vengeful, short tempered and an extremist aggressive on foreign policy and making dangerous unnecessary provocations that backfired, because she was less clever than she thought she was. The whole trope where when men fight they gain mutual respect and work together, but when a woman fights she buries an implacable grudge against 'that man' for beating her, even when he ran a positive campaign and asked her to do the same and she refused and pulled the god damned swift boats / racist nigger baby routine from rove's playbook on him and STILL spent the next 4 years publicly rebuking obama and spitefully causing diplomatic flaps and contradicting him in every sit room meeting.
