> [@doorhinge](#): > > It’s an actual fact that Hillary lost the general election. Which is a higher finish than her last attempt to be POTUS, where she could not win the Democrat primary. Yeah, of course. It’s also a fact that she lost because GOP voters, like you, can’t face reality and choose to love in comfortable delusion. ---
