We meet again, Sandwich. The problem with your commendation against Walker is that the article you linked to was well thought out and was by and large correct based on what everybody knew AT THE TIME.
In short, you're driving with hindsight.

And he said he wasn't afraid of Trump. Well good for him.
I was terrified of Trump.
We knew he was a liar before he was elected. We knew he was a misogynist. We knew he was in bed with Russia. Oh, we knew so much.
But the third party voters thought they were so much smarter than the rest of us.

I'm old enough to remember the effects of Ralph Nader and Ross Perot. But who cares what old people think when the Green Party is so romantic and the Bernie Bros are so angry about their misconceptions.
In short, then, this Bragman person was wrong. He was arrogantly wrong.
O knew how wrong he was on election night when I sobbed as I learned the results. I didn't soon because my candidate lost; nothing new there for me.
@ClaraListensprechen4 @TruthSandwich @walkerbragman
No, I sobbed layer into the night because I knew what Trump was going to do to our country with the help of the Republican Party.
Now if I, just an old retired IT pro without the advantage of hindsight, knew what Trump was going to do, why couldn't Bragman know?
Sandwich is right.
@ClaraListensprechen4 @TruthSandwich @walkerbragman
Well, I'm not driving with hindsight.
Walker claimed Clinton was such a horribly weak candidate. Well, damnit, she was not. He was apparently discounting the legions of women, like me, who regard her as a hero.
(And, yes, in hindsight, remember that it took James Comey, Bernie Bros, Steinites, and the electoral college to beat her.)
