Yes, and the superdelegates, whose job was to make sure people didn't pick the wrong candidate (how democratic of them), picked probably the least popular politician in America at the time.

Trump likely would have lost against almost any other candidate, but he had help from the Democratic party, who treated Hil's nom as a coronation.

This is such a silly hill to die on. Hillary clinton won the majority of voters both in the democratic nomination and in the national election.

Yeah she was so popular they had to rig caucuses in her favor, and superdelegates had to defy their constituents.
