MODERATORS
I don't disagree with most of this, but saying 'beating Trump should have been easy' is kind of missing the point, too.
Democrats missed all the signs that the country is in crisis, and ran their typical playbook anyway. Trump, for all his stupidity, actually saw the panic in the voting base and mirrored their frustration back at them.
It was never going to be "easy" as long as they were pretending nothing was fundamentally wrong.
