In 2040, will Democrats be glad Clinton lost?

Will we be happy Clinton lost? Since with this awful Senate map, a veeery unpopular President no matter who won,  an even more energized alt-right, decimation in State Houses... do you think 2016 was a poisoned chalice? Another 1976? Was it better that we lost it, when thinking of the future?

I think it will a lot of how we see the 2016 election will depend of if Ginsburg and Kennedy end up retiring during Trump's term, especially if the Republicans keep control of the Senate.
