Phantom Menace grossed 1billion dollars worldwide. Clinton got 65 million votes. Phantom Menace by an order of magnitude.

The Hillary 2016 campaign was the most disappointing thing since my son. I mean, how much more could you possibly f**k up the entire future of the United States? And while my son eventually hanged himself in the bathroom of a gas station, the unfortunate reality of Trump's victory is that he'll be around. Forever. He will never go away. He can never be undone. And if you're someone under the age of like, 20, who says his least favorite President was Barack Obama because he was "the most socialist-est one", then I suggest you shut this review off right now, before I carefully explain to you how much of a f**king idiot you are.

So where do I possibly start? Nothing the Clinton campaign did makes any sense at all. It comes off like a plan written by an 8-year-old. It's like Hillary finished the strategy in one draft, and they decided to go with it without anyone saying it made no sense at all or was a stupid, incoherent mess. I guess at this point who's going to question Hillary, or tell her what to do? She controls every aspect of the campaign. Probably got rid of those people that questioned her strategically a long time ago. I also think that everyone just assumed a new Clinton presidency would be an instant hit, regardless of what the message was. Really, how hard could it be to screw up? It's like screwing up mashed potatoes: you boil the water, pour in the packet--

I think the Clinton 2016 campaign pretty well took things for granted and believed that Hillary was inevitable, and did not wake up to the reality of the campaign until it was too late.

So the Clinton campaign was the bigger failure.

I am going to go with Star Wars.

Hillary won the popular vote, so it wasn't a total failure.

Well, considering the Clinton campaign won the election by a couple of million people...I think the biggest failure is our Democracy, which allows a con man to be "elected" despite not receiving the most votes.

The Phantom Menace was awesome. Did you guys see BADASS Darth Mall twirling and flipping around and fighting with a TWO-SIDED lightsaber? Cheesy (Compared to A New Hope where the lightsaber battle was slow and boring as hell)

Time to give up on this sore loser meme, Trump won the election.  Clinton won nothing but a large margin in CA....
