I guess people shouldn't have voted for a terrible candidate in the 2016 DNC primaries.

I think people shouldn't have voted for a terrible president in 2016 but what do I know

Sounds like the DNC primaries didn't produce a candidate that was sufficiently popular with all the major factions of the Democrat voter base. I wonder what the solution to that could be. Guess we'll never know since people like you refuse to have that conversation.

Technically the DNC candidate was more popular than the RNC one, but years of voter suppression perpetrated by the right wing over the past few decades prevented said candidate from attaining office

Not popular enough.
