    Popular vote dont get you shit here.

    She lost the race in swing states where “independents” choose the winner. If she had been “John Clinton,” with every single bit of the politcal baggage and none of the sexist baggage, I guarantee she would have cleared that 80k vote hurdle in those 3 states.

      That’s a red herring. The original comment was “America is sexist,” and that’s a statement based on quantities.

      So yeah, the popular vote matters here.
