    Hillary won the popular vote. While yes, America does have a sexism problem, I don’t think being a woman is that big of a problem for the candidates.

    Being a terrible candidate who is insanely out of touch with Americans is the problem. They just need to run women who are willing to fight for what Americans want.

        I don’t know enough about her campaigns to say why she didn’t win. Is there any indication that Americans thought she was going to fight for what they want?

          Is there any polling indication that showed to show drumpf winning? I know polling isn’t an indication of reality. But living where I do, I run into a lot of first time home buyers who had no idea the big K was going to give them a $25k credit.

          Even worse, some of them recently became Russia supporters.

            Yeah, I kept hearing it a lot before the election. It was roughly ~51-49 in favor of Trump.

            I’m not sure how the rest of your comment is related? Can you explain?

              Oh, I do Uber on weekends cause it’s a tourist area (almost at the point where I get free <3000 level classes at ASU(sarcastic yay)). And it being a small town I see the same people a lot, and they tend to over share.

              You ever watch “taxi cab confessions” back in the day? Well I can tell you from experience it is not entirely staged. The twisted shit nurses have told and shown me pictures of, would leave old school “rotten dot com” blushing.
