Even Hillary Clinton, the worst Dem nominee in my lifetime (I was born on the penultimate day of 82*) would have beaten him in a landslide if not for the media wagging the dog in his favor.
Granted, that they did so was partly BECAUSE of her deliberate Pied Piper strategy to make sure he was the GOP nominee, which is a stellar example of the “it’ll always be 1992” Dem leadership mentality that made her such an awful candidate.
