The fact that Hillary Clinton would have made a bad president has absolutely no bearing on anti-Trump sentiment on here or anywhere else... it doesn't mean that Trump isn't also bad. He's untested of course so no one can say for sure, but logically speaking, a sneering / truth-bending semi-celebrity and representative of "American Big Business" is unlikely to make a good president. That doesn't mean that Clinton would have been a good president.

There just seems to be thread after thread gleefully attempting to call out "Loony Left" (Clinton is not Left) "Hillary Supporters" (who are simply not here). People seem to be trying to CREATE Hillary fans in their mind to mock, for little purpose other than to "enjoy a victory" that presumably otherwise feels hollow.
I think it is more a response to the constant verbal attacks on anyone who voted for Trump or argued in favour of his win over hers. Hilary was the only alternative to Trump so for people to attack others for 'supporting' Trump makes no sense.

People had their reasons for preferring Trump to Clinton, as is their right, but still the 'left leaning' supporters on here keep having digs and making the usual allegations of ' bigots' etc - why lay all the blame at the door of those that back him over her. Sounds rather one-sided.
