    Yes, she ran as an adult adult while American society runs on childhood oppositional defiant disorder. Her qualifications hurt her because Americans fundamentally don’t believe in the concept of expertise. We know.

      You are getting down-voted on this, but you are absolutely correct about how so many Americans vote like they suffer from childhood ODD.

      So many voters don’t want a boring but competent person at the helm, one group wants the reality tv version of a “president”, another wants a magical pony. If they cannot get one of those, so many think the whole thing should just burn down. Meaning millions will suffer, but these children in adult bodies don’t care because they didn’t get their way.

      I just can’t even with this mentality. It is so infuriating.

      Even more infuriating - the people that say, “well, don’t blame the voters”. WTAF? Yes, Hillary is/was not perfect and I am not her biggest fan, but…JFC. I’m supposed to blame her for that? The voters have no culpability here? And don’t even get me started on the MSM when it comes to discussions about Hillary and Kamala.

      One of the best gems from the MSM? Saying Hillary was “overprepared”. LOLWUT, JFC, and WTAF.
