She literally ran the same year as Jeb "Please Clap" Bush, and this was after a stint at Secretary of State where she had to do an "apology tour" for spying on other nations.
People were fed up with political dynasties that year, and the fact that the Democrats couldn't read the room is why they lost.
The DNC literally hid behind being a private club to justify putting their finger on the scale for Clinton.
What's that old saying? "If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts; if you have the law on your side, pound the law; if you have neither the facts nor the law, pound the table."

Here is the Democrats pounding the law that the DNC is a private club, so nobody can say their own rules are fair but them. They never argued the facts about whether or not it was rigged, because they didn't have facts to support that.
You know you can be a part of the DNC right? Like if it's so important, have you engaged with it at all?
My state level Democratic party is where I spend most of my energy because they're not nearly as trash as the national party.
I'm glad you're involved, thank you!!
