It shows that money alone can't buy an election.
But it also shows the power of the #FakeNews media.
One reason Trump won is that the #FakeNews media was actually supportive of him to some extent during the primaries believing that he'd be easy for Hillary to beat.
The #FakeNews media has spent decades telling America how great Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden are.
That is why the two Democrat contenders are two rich old white men. That's why all the women and people of color have been effectively driven out of the race. Warren is hanging on because she steals votes from Bernie and the rich white folk who run the DNC want Joe to win.
What this tells us is that any Republican candidate faces a huge uphill fight because the #FakeNews media will lie and ignore them.
Back in 2000 I supported Alan Keyes, not George Bush, for the Republican nomination. Keyes is an intelligent Catholic Black man. Given that the #FakeNews media was saying how racist the Republican party was one would think that they'd have given Keyes a lot of coverage but instead the #FakeNews media completely ignored him.
Not just because leftists are racists but because he showed that it was a lie that Republicans are racists.
Not surprisingly his campaign never got much traction.
The inordinate power of the #FakeNews media, who are nothing more than Democrat propagandists, is why you need to work hard to elect Republicans.
Essentially to win Republicans need to crowdsource the publicity for our candidates. You need to constantly, when appropriate, counter the lies that the #FakeNews media are spewing about Trump and other Republicans. You need to tell your friends the truths that the #FakeNews media won't cover.
Don't constantly harangue them, that will alienate them, but when the topic comes up simply drop some truth bombs.
