Off topic. How to run for president and not turn off large blocks of voters

1. Don't go around saying large groups of voters are going to be out of work after your policies are law. Lost West Virginia , part of Pennsylvania.
2. Even if your base thinks negatively of everyone who remotely supports the other party, don't call potential voters names. Don't resort to name calling. Call voters names. You lose. Example. Deplorables.
3. Don't say stupid things that make you sound arrogant even if you are. Example after being investigated for wiping a server to erase evidence, ask, you mean with a cloth?
4. Don't be involved in a previous administration that had several "suicides" under mysterious circumstances.
5. Don't have an organization that collects funds from foreign organizations that makes you look like something shady is going on making you look corrupt and crooked in combination with the above.
6. Don't talk about your plans to overturn the second amendment before you are president. Many voters support the bill of rights and the amendments. Don't be caught on camera saying you would like to ban all guns. It will be used against you forever as your forever opinion.
7. Visit states where your opponent is if you think it will be close. Every state does count. That's the way our system is rigged. It doesn't matter if not one person in the entire state of California voted for your opponent.
8. Don't advocate open borders or controversial policies while running for president.
Not every American wants criminals and millions of others just arriving in the country competing for jobs and taking welfare benefits, social security benefits, Medicare or Medicaid benefits that they paid nothing for while Americans here have worked years for these benefits. People feel slighted if their benefits get cut because you are promising to let millions of others to come and take what they thought would be their benefits.
9. Talk about how your policies will help voters in multiple states. Focus on improving the economy and voters economy and jobs. Ok this one was extra.
Ok the political part. One candidate did the opposite of all of this and millions of Americans were in disbelief that she lost.
