Sorry Beth, but the democrats have no one else to blame, they ran a candidate with nearly the name recognition of Jesus, the background of having been groomed her adult life for the position, they colluded and compromised their integrity and somewhat lackluster reputation by plotting against fellow candidates, and used name calling and character assassination as a political tool, even against their own. They engaged in labeling other Americans as "Deplorable" and "Irredeemable" as well as other less than complementary terms, and then were shocked when those practices were turned against them. And then failed to get the voters in their own party to show up at the polls. Yes sorry Beth, but the DNC and the Democratic party own this.
