True, but future generations will still struggle to understand how he didn’t get blown out or even how he got nominated over competent people.

Well the real problem was Democratic turnout in cities like Detroit, Philly, and Milwaukee. 

The real problem was her campaign slogan and inability to be authentic, also her and her staff's hubris. If they listened to Bill they would have won.

The irony is that Hillary was actually (largely) authentic. Not in everything certainly, but in general. In her policies and goals. The problem was largely that she was boring. 
 

Trump didn’t beat her because of authenticity. He is incredibly inauthentic. He beat her because of charisma. He excited people. He put on a show.

That's fair, but in terms of optics she was viewed as inauthentic and the slogan "I'm with her" sealed that view. One of the dumbest miscalculations in political history.

Campaign slogans don’t really matter. Catchy jingles get some name recognition, but that didn’t figure in here. 
 

Yes, she was viewed as inauthentic, but in most ways I think that’s perception more than reality.
 

And in others, where she was sometimes inauthentic, I think she learned the hard way that she wasn’t allowed to be authentic over decades of being a First Lady and then a politician herself. She was abused pretty horribly and learned to appear the way people wanted her to. And in the end that ended up being a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation.

Yes yes none of it was her fault.
