This isn't entirely untrue. She is right that those who Hillary needed to show up decided to not show up. Trump didn't get a lot of support, people simply didn't bother to show up for Hillary.

She still lost.
What a crock of baloney! This is funnier than that video clip.
Let's see...Trump "didn't get a lot of support." He just got a lot of votes. The second part is even funnier, and Hillary's camp got the memo, too: Hillary's voters didn't show up. Why, that's one helluva way to show one's support, isn't it? All of which means that she lost because she didn't have the support.

If Hillary had got the support Obama did, she would have won.
Those poor fear-stricken voters badly victimized by the media!
The thesis that Trump won because of the "lazy" would-be Clinton voters not showing up to vote does not hold well. You could also say that because the media made it seem to be a sure thing that Trump would lose, there must have been a lot of "lazy" would-be Trump voters who didn't show up to vote.
I don't understand the repeated sentiment that women "feel fear" as a result of Trump winning. I just don't. The guy may be a serial philanderer, but what are my fellow females really thinking that produces such fear, exactly? That Donald Trump will arrive at the homes of all American women and grab them in the p*ssy? That we'll suddenly be plunged back into garment factories and forced to work for pennies while being sexually assaulted by men in the workplace? That our voting rights will be taken away? That spousal abuse will become legal once again? I am trying to understand whatever legitimate concerns there may be but I'm honestly struggling here.
I've been struggling to understand this too. It's not like Donald Trump doesn't have a history of supporting women executives in his company, paying them very well. His daughter seems to be a big advocate for women in the workplace. I don't get it. The only conclusion I can draw is that these people think he will outlaw abortion. He pretty much said he would appoint an anti-choice Supreme Court justice. But I never really believed he cared very much about that issue, nor do I even think an anti-choice justice will do anything about it. We have had a conservative Court for decades, and three very conservative presidents since Roe v. Wade, and still abortion is the law of the land.
Maybe it's just people believing that the president really has that much power, when he doesn't. All the gains of women and people of color over the years happened no matter who was president, and it's not going to be rolled back now.
