But over and above that the electorate had fatigue from Clinton. She's been in the national political spotlight for decades and running for increasing levels of power since she left the Whitehouse. She came off as a power hungry establishment politician that was happy to keep the status quo.
Under normal circumstances she would have been a good/mediocre candidate but considering her opponent, the mood of the country and her history, she was perhaps the worst possible candidate at the worst possible time.
