There are plenty of reasons why HRC failed in 2016, but I don't believe either of these two reasons you present were at all significant.
Americans like aggressive, energetic people, and don't really care about the substance of what they say.
Barring some unexpected game changer, like one or both candidates expiring of old age, I fear Trump will win.
