Top 10 Mistakes Hillary Clinton Made in Her 2016 Campaign
Hardly the ideal Democrat candidate for many voters, but her defeat was largely unexpected. She was alotted a lot of room for error, yet made too many mistakes.Had she not learned this lesson from John Kerry, Michael Dukakis and Walter Mondale
Her main case was that people should vote for her to prevent her opponent from winning. Except she didn't convince the American public why they should vote FOR HER.
She went down in the gutter and Donald beat her with experience.
Her staff told her everything she wanted to hear, and she thought she would win by a landslide, but she never faced the possibility that her approach to campaigning was flawed.
She decided to focus on Trump's antics, but she didn't talk that much about education, environmental protection, infrastructure and other issues that mattered to voters.
She beat Trump in at least 2 of the debates, but that doesn't say much. She never made her call to action for voters. She never persuaded people to knock on doors and campaign for her.
Granted, it may not have been possible for her to outdo Obama in this department, but she could have communicated with them more as opposed to just sending celebrities to Cleveland.
Focusing her argument on her opponent's immoral behaviors didn't help her because many Americans viewed her as immoral and untrustworthy as well.
She campaigned in Arizona, which she had little chance of winning, but neglected Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania which she lost by a narrow margin.
He didn't add much to her campaign and was practically invisible the whole race.
She stooped down to her opponent's level.
