No Gowdy, Hillary should not have won in 2016 you Rino Puke. This where your Rino nonsense shows. Fake polls to drive public opinion is not the measure to use. Hillary failed at her campaign, and amazingly, Biden is doing the same mistakes again.
I dont think that he is saying that Hillary should have won, but that if the Democrats wanted to be in a position to fill thes seat, then they should have won in 2016. He often speaks in incomplete sentences, I think because he assumes that everyone understands what he is saying, and he does it to have a short answer for interviews.
I believe you have misunderstood what Gowdy meant.
He was not saying that they SHOULD have won in 2016.
My take was that he was saying that the Dems should have won in 2016 if they wanted to select SCOTUS nominees.
