What caused Hillary to lose?

She's been in the news lately because she wrote a book. Good for her. She has every right to speak her mind-and she has every right to do whatever she wants. She's also asking tough questions of everyone else but herself. No, I haven't read the book and no, I won't read the book. From what little I've seen of it on the media it sounds like she is blaming everyone else but herself. Oh sure, she might be giving lip service to her own mistakes and failures, but in the end I still see her as the person who has been divorced five times and simply can't look inward as to why.

I agree that many things caused her to lose the election. The biggest is that voters simply didn't like her. The left views her as a moderate establishment opportunist-and she is. The right views her as the devil incarnate-which she is not. Moderates and swing voters (not many of those left in the world) like the idea of a woman becoming president, but not this woman. Hillary Clinton has more baggage than someone who has a lot of baggage (tapped out with the comparisons and metaphors. Sorry.). She's been on the public scene since the 1960's. She viewed the presidency as something she was entitled to. She already ran once and lost. One of those reasons alone might have been the deathblow to her campaign-all those combined are more than enough to topple it. 

The final mistake in her campaign was just timing. In 2016 there were no "blue collar" democrats left. They all swung to Trump this time because being able to feed their family comes before partisanship. I'm NOT saying that Trumps policies would help them in any way, shape of form (they won't)-but Trump sold them on that idea. When it comes to down to electing a woman president or making sure your kids an afford three meals a day-the history of the event simply did not matter.
