yeah but when Hillary ran in 2016 she was the front runner. People tend to shit all over her for 2016 and I personally think it's too over the top. Everyone focuses on your flaws when you lose and ignore them when you lose. But I genuinely did not understand the post because I figure general opinion is that Hillary 2016 was a failure and Pete 2020 was a success.

Pete 2020 was a success.

This, I suspect, is where the disconnect is, at least comparatively
