Clinton was an awful candidate who had everything. She had tons more money. She had all the media cheering for her like school children. She had all the right connections. She had a ground game.

Yet she failed, because she is stuffy, rich, out of touch, arrogant, pedantic and condescending. She was dismissive of people's concerns. The economy is great for all. Anybody complaining is a basket of deplorables.
Seriously, if gutless Republicans who know better allow Trump to push through his awful anti-trade ideas it will get really ugly. Then he'll get voted out and the dopey dems at that point will say it's because he didnt' go far enough with the destructive trade wars and make it even worse.

It's the tax code and crony system of special tax breaks that is causing the problems for the middle class and not trade. Get rid of the tax code. Don't close ourselves off from the global economy.
