So, Hillary had Russian intelligence, the leader of the FBI, Trump/GOP, the Media, Bernie or Busters

61. My Retort

Because he was six years into a successful Presidency where the economy was booming and foreign relations were doing well. There is nothing like success to beat back your critics.

That answer could hold water if it weren't for the fact that his approval rating spiked a record 10% in less than week.

The difference is, Bill knew how to spin the story against Republicans, something Hillary was unable to do. According to her own admission, she is poor retail politician.

See my answer to #1. If she had been six years into a successful Presidency it would have been no problem.

You have to win before you get six years. Besides that, Bill had allegations leveled against him before he even won the presidency. Again, why can he do it, and she can't? In case you are wondering, see what I typed above.

Obama had a massively failing Republican President to hang around his GOP opponents neck. We could have run Ted Bundy and won.

Hillary ran against THE MOST UNQUALIFIED candidate in the history of this country. Obama ran against what many pundits and strategist from both parties viewed as moderate Republican who could bring stability and sanity back to the Republican Party.

If fundamental principles like Democracy are important to you, then the popular vote getter in an election should matter. If those things aren't important to you, then you might be able to brush it off.

First, we don't live in a democracy, we live in a Republic which is a representative democracy. Should the popular vote matter? Yes. Does it? Absolutely not, and it probably never will in our lifetime.

I will guarantee you this though, if roles were reversed and Hillary had won the EC and Trump won the popular vote, you wouldn't be crying about the popular vote getter not winning. That's the definition of hypocrisy.
