RE:She totally ignored the working class.

Not true. She told coal miners she would DESTROY THEIR JOBS.

Dec 21 (Reuters) - U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday named Peter Navarro, an economist who has urged a hard line on China, to head a newly formed White House National Trade Council, the transition team said in a statement."The formation of the National Trade Council further demonstrates the President-elect's determination to make American manufacturing great again and to provide every American the opportunity to work in a decent job at a decent wage," the statement said.

Trump made trade a centerpiece of his presidential campaign and railed against what he said were bad deals the United States has made with other countries.

The president-elect, who takes office on Jan. 20, has also threatened to hit Chinese imports with high tariffs and angered Beijing by questioning Washington's longstanding "one China" policy.

Navarro, who advised Trump during the campaign, has authored several books including "Death by China: How America Lost its Manufacturing Base," which was made into a documentary film.

Locogringo,
Hillary lost because she was unbelievably arrogant and utterly stupid. She was the only one that believed it was her turn. She was dumb enough to believe the MSM, when NOBODY else does.
Just to correct you, she's not the only one who was arrogant and stupid.

She's not the only one who believed it was her turn. The very slogan "Ready for Hillary" presumed that her ascendancy was a done deal, and that we can either choose to prepare for it or be dragged kicking and screaming into the inevitable.

She's not the only one who believed the MSM. Many, many other people do, including stuff that should qualify as "fake news" but will never be labeled as such because the ones doing the labeling are also the ones serving as the MSM's gatekeepers.

And let's not forget about Hillary's popular vote margin, which the left continues to remind us on a daily basis. That means more people believed the B.S. from Hillary than those who believed the B.S. from Trump. About 3 million more, as of last count. That means people like Sharkie are in very good company.

Bottom line is that Hillary didn't lose because she was the only one who suffered the aforementioned faults. No, Hillary lost because she actually believed her own lies. It's one thing if your followers do, but if it's another if you do as well.

Colin Powell said it best. Everything Hillary touches, she kind of screws up with hubris.
