The "worst candidate evah!" is obviously subjective because there are many many people who are very passionate about Trump. Because I see them on my Facebook feed and I saw them leading up to election day waving signs at major intersections.
Again, the idea that people unenthusiastically moped down to the polls to cast their vote for a candidate they didn't want just doesn't line up with the facts.
- mikeash 10y agoOf course it's subjective. If you want an objective measure, how about saying: a candidate who was worse than Romney and McCain, based on the absolute number of voters and the percentage of eligible voters that he ended up winning. I don't see how a lack of enthusiasm conflicts with the facts. Voter turnout was way down. Democrats won way fewer votes than the last two times around, to the point that they lost the election even though their opponent also did worse than before.
