Yea, I see a lot of quotes online about how her brother-in-law or whatever had her rein in some policies and how she had a bunch of advisors that further reined in her policies, but if anything that kind of proves their point. She had no substance of her own and was willing to campaign on literally nothing believing that was the way to get elected. Kinda a devastating indictment of both her and the dems and the political industrial complex.

Agreed. Absolutely agreed.

She offered so little in the first place that the fact that she was told to offer even less with expectations that it would make her win the more desperate masses because it wasn't anything "bad™" at least... It's a huge statement on what they want to offer and what they expect in return:

The answer to both is simply, nothing.
Give nothing and expect nothing in return so that things hopefully stay the same. It's a massive failing of politics right now.
