re: Why was Hillary's loss so hard for liberals/democrats to deal with?

This is a measured, thought out response and how most discussions should be conducted. I think you are engaging in hyperbole with your points about regression of minority rights, but I am not a minority nor a democrat/leftist so I cannot speak for someone with your beliefs.

However, I viewed and still view trumps election as a populace tired of being lectured at by an academic who’s never held a private job, a majority of the population tired of being blamed just because of the color ofnheir skin despite many of them struggling mightily, and possibly the most critical factor, a complete rejection of a true elite.

As the op mentioned, Hillary was truly a terrible candidate. Republicans running Roy Moore learned the lessons democrats were taught last November, running a shite candidate is a recipe for a loss.

That reporter he is making fun of that CNN ran with

Where he seemingly “spazzed out” to mock a retarded person

The reporter he was mocking is NOT mentally handicapped

He has NO disorder that causes him to lose control of his muscle movements

You know his handicap? He has a gimp arm. That he actually has trouble moving.

But everyone was blasted with propaganda that Trump “mocked a handicapped reporter. Oh the humanity!” And by lie of omission were led to believe that Trump was mocking some handicapped person having a seizure or spasms.

All. Lies.

The man is not retarded, sir. Merely a physical handicap of his arm.

So, I’ve got a buddy who has two daughters. He and his wife are big on teaching them the feminist notion that they are a man’s equal in every way. They shouldn’t ever need or rely on a man for anything.

I do think there was a lot of this. But, the irony is that woman got where she is because of who she married.

I'm glad Clinton wasn't the first woman president. I want my 19 year old niece to eventually hold that honor.
