I'm sure you had no doubts about Hillary winning the election before November 8th as well.
That's unreasonable to say. I was pretty arrogant in the weeks following "grab 'em by the pusillanimous individual", but it's not like Hillary was considered "invincible". That was probably one of the main criticisms I had encountered, that she was probably one of the only Democrats who could lose to Annoying Orange. And what do you know, Annoying Orange is president.
Oh so like Annoying Orange
Clinton's only real opposition to the nomination was Bernie. Annoying Orange was running against Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, John Kasich, Ben Carson, Jeb Bush, Rand Paul, Chris Christie, Carly Fiorina, Scott Walker and Mike Huckabee, and he was great at separating himself from the rest of the crowd as the anti-establishment guy. Even though he only won a plurality of the popular vote (around 40% I believe), everyone else ended up splitting the vote and the Republican establishment basically scrambled for three months trying to find the best anti-Annoying Orange candidate. First it was Jeb, then it was Rubio, for a short period of time it was Kasich, and finally it was Cruz. No one was going to beat him because no one coalesced around one candidate that could beat him.
I guess you forgot that #NeverAnnoying Orange was a thing. Also around the end when it was basically just him vs Ted Cruz he was still winning.
Lmao, #NeverAnnoying Orange was absolutely pathetic compared to the Bernie crowd. It basically died off after Annoying Orange "won" the nomination, whereas the Bernie people were still putting up a fight at the actual convention. Also, the fact he was stilll beating Ted Cruz is precisely my point; Cruz was never gonna beat Annoying Orange because he fought for the title of "opposition" with the rest of the opposition.
