Before you make any criticism of Hillary Clinton, her campaign, or Democrats, I am just going to ask you to remember this one thing.

Hillary Clinton got more votes than Donald Trump.

You thought she wasn't populist enough? Well, she got more votes.

You thought she wasn't progressive enough? Well, she got more votes

Think this election proves how bigoted America is? Well, Clinton did get more votes.

Think the media wasn't fair? I repeat: Clinton got more votes.

Hillary Clinton got more votes than Donald Trump. Never forget that. Never start any mention of this campaign without acknowledging that. It's a fundamental injustice that must not be erased.
