Like every presidential
election that liberals lose, years later we’re still hearing about how
unfair it all was. Of course, the favorite complaint of liberals this
time around is “Russia did it!” Even if you accept for the sake of
argument that Russia wanted Trump to win and hacked John Podesta’s email
(and neither of those assertions may be true), buying some
inconsequential Facebook ads for both sides and revealing the contents
of John Podesta’s emails (none of which turned into truly major stories)
wasn’t exactly a game changer.
Liberals also noted that
Hillary would have won had the election been decided by the popular
vote. This is like noting that if football games were decided by passing
yards instead of the score, the Patriots would have beaten the Eagles
in the Super Bowl. It doesn’t work that way, by design. We’ve also heard
complaints that Bernie Sanders is responsible, presumably for daring to
run against Hillary at all and we can’t forget “sexism.” That’s always a
liberal rallying cry.
Moreover, it is impossible to
overemphasize that, other than a few true believers, almost all of the
political professionals (myself included) thought Hillary would win. In
fact, if you believe Michael Wolff’s book, Fire and Fury, even the Trump campaign thought it was going to lose – and no wonder.
