Why did Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party not gain the White House and Congress?

3. You are correct in the analysis, but

While I agree that Democrats are bringing cupcakes to a gun fight, the game simply is rigged so massively to republicans because hate and division are the subtext to our whole culture now and that is what they are.

The democrats had an edge when we were in a fact based world and labor puts its weight behind it because the party was advocating for the average Joe.

But, republicans have effectively destroyed the labor market and the people of this country stopped voting pocketbook long ago.

Every election is cultural now and we end up defending the most wanted lists of what the angry white voters - minorities and LBGT community. And, the prior vote EVERY election come hell or high water and the later mostly don't show up on election day other than presidentials.

Hell, we were in a better place 8 years ago when it was just media bias. NOW, we live in a country that is openly hostile to facts, reality and decency.

I guess what I am saying is, we are pretty much fucked.
