this is the campaign manager. my mom yelled at me for doing it. i appointed her to an important panel. that s what was missing. i think obama did invite mccain into the white house or met with him during the transition or something like that hillary clinton didn t step foot in wisconsin in the general election. that s a strategic mistake. on the flip side, while you re right that voters weren t racist, it s fair to say that a lot of what was coming out from the trump apparatus were dog whistles. hold on. don t say the word dog whistle. they were ugly, racist issues that were on the forefront. there were stupid comments. the muslim ban, racist.
