You treat objects like women man.
Soapbox: All Politics posters do realize the country is run by rich, self-serving, and often incompetent, ne'er do wells, surely. Mark Twain would have a 'field day' if he was born a hundred some odd years later.

Because the republicans (in the end enthusiastically assisted by the russians) spent the last 25 years explaining how every problem known to mankind should be blamed on the Clintons. If I would live in a Red State and my last name were Clinton, I would probably change it so something more safe, like Putin or Assange or something.

Meanwhile Democrats have spent the last 2.5 years explaining how every problem known to mankind should be blamed on Trump. A viable third party has been long overdue.
