I think those books, tremendous books with tremendous stories, are the best books. They make reading great again.

No. The last sentence is incomplete. It would be better to phrase it like this:

That's also not grammatical; it's lacking a subject.

Does this statement makes a person sound like a hypocrite?

Of course. Tbqh, liberals are so smug and full of themselves, that they don't notice the kind of shit they accuse right-wingers of, often spring from their own mouth when they don't get what they want.

Waving your psychology degree at poor people and telling them to submit to your higher level of education shows a very deep understanding of psychology and culture.

Guess it was just a statistical fluke that it didn't work.

And as for the statistics not working, that was also a statistical fluke.

I think the statistical fluke is their closeness in the popular vote but people still thinking this is an epic win/loss.

I actually agree. Stupid people should be easy to manipulate toward your own utopian goals for society, but you don't do it by telling them they're stupid. You have to be aware of their stupidity, though. I guess the intellectual elite are the real stupid ones, here.

a fraction of a percent isn't a "solid" win by any means and she had a good portion of the congested metropolitan vote anyhow
