There aren't 5 reasons, just one "Hillary". She defeated herself, because the American people are a lot wiser than the Democrats were giving them credit for. It is very simple really if one isn't being spoon fed by the media.

The Dems just needed to be able to apply those "higher educations" they are supposed to have. An education that can't be applied to the real world really isn't worth much!

If you looked at a Trump rally you saw his supporters sitting right next to him. You also saw him shaking hands and making himself 'available'. Heck, even if you only gave $35 to his campaign; you could have been with him on a flight to his next rally. Hillary was aloof. She went 273 days without a news conference. Pictures of her close to her supporters were rare and her supporters, that did get close, looked like they were hand picked or paid!

From the beginning Trumps rallies drew large crowds of passionate supporters. The DNC wrote this off and then started call us names. The name calling only strengthened our resolve; we knew we were on the right track with the other sides so upset. If the Democrats were smart; they would have watched and learned; but they knew what was best and that cost them the election. One of these days they will realize that the top 1% of the 1% do not have enough votes to carry any election.

She didn't work hard enough or smart enough, one person 'wanted it more' and its pretty obvious who that was. She skipped speeches, didn't give news conferences and just layed in bed and made up lies about Trump, paying operatives to enact violence at Trump rallies and just prayed the public would be dumb enough to elect her due to their being 'insulted' by Trump.

Luckily America saw through her.

Or..... eight years of an incompetent Obama presidency fueled people with common sense to vote with their hearts on Election Day. Hillary screwed herself even after the media set her up to run away with it all.

Now, all these sad sack libs can do is slam anything Trump, and he's not even president yet. Unbelievably sad to say the least....

Not only that, but that nauseating thing she did where every single time she walked up to a podium, she'd pick someone in the audience out at random, point at them, and make a big surprised expression on her face, as though it was an old high school friend she was delighted to see. And it was totally fake, every single time.

God, I can't abide her.

Poor, poor Fiyero. You will never get it, will you? As a result, you should not be calling Trump supporters "stupid".

Way to go insulting people who live in rural areas. Hillary lost. Trump won. Suck it up and deal with it.

She didn't do those things because she thought she was "entitled" to the presidency.

Why work for it when you think you got enough useful idiots who will vote for you some because "your a woman", others because Obama said he would be insulted if you didn't vote for her, and the liberal media acting as a political arm. Why work for it if you think you're entitled and everyone else is going to do the work for you?

The Trump wave hit in the places it had to, however. And it hit hard.
