Obama Admits Hillary “Lost Badly” By Failing To “Make An Argument” That Inspired People To “Show Up”

After weeks of pushing the “Russian hacking” narrative, mostly through White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest, Obama is finally admitting that Hillary “lost badly” in her presidential bid by failing to make an argument to people in the Midwest that inspired them to “show up.” In an “exit interview” with NPR, Obama said that Democrats face “structural problems” with their base clustered in urban areas on the coasts which requires presidential candidates to make their case to swing voters in the Midwest, something he says Hillary failed to do. Per The Hill:
“There are some things that we know are a challenge for Democrats — structural problems,” he said.Obama noted that Democratic voters are often clustered in urban areas and on the coasts.
“So as a consequence, you’ve got a situation where there’re not only entire states but also big chunks of states where, if we’re not showing up, if we’re not in there making an argument, then we’re going to lose,” he said.
“And we can lose badly, and that’s what happened in this election.”
