In an attempt to criticize President Trump for how he is handling the escalating tension with North Korea, Hillary Clinton embarrassed herself by demonstrating she knows little about the Korean peninsula.
During an interview on "The Rachel Maddow Show," the failed 2016 presidential candidate said "The president has basically insulted and attacked South Korea. South Korea is literally, you know, within miles of the border with North Korea. They would be so at risk if something were done by Kim Jong Un."
Of course, South Korea borders North Korea — it is not miles away.
Clinton did not blink at this mistake, nor did Maddow correct her. Watch the embarrassing gaffe above.

The entire media establishment is 100% aware of what hillary said, and deliberately and intentionally chooses to suppress all mention of it.
The same people shoved a mike in front of Trump after Charlottesville and set a trap for him so that no matter what he said they were going to call him racist.
May the media people suffer cruelly many years before finally leaving this world.
Please don’t slander snakes. It’s not easy walking without any feet.
“What is Middle Korea like? What does their flag have on it?”
Either Afro Ken or Hello Kitty.
Must be so......she’s the smartest woman in the world.
Her brain is literally with miles of her mouth.
SHE DID NOT SAY THAT! She said you could see Russia from Alaska! It was the skit by Tina Fey that made the leap and it was accepted because the media drove the template.
Actually, she's not entirely incorrect. The Korean Demilitarized Zone is a border barrier that divides the Korean Peninsula. The DMZ is 250 kilometres (160 miles) long, and about 4 kilometres (2.5 miles) wide. So for her to say that "South Korea Is Literally Within Miles of the Border With North Korea" is technically correct, although an awkward way to put it.
Not taking anything away from the vile, evilness of the woman but she probably meant Seoul, the capital of South Korea, is just miles away from the North Korean border. That’s usually how it is phrased to emphasize the danger posed by the massive amounts of North Korean artillery dug into the mountains behind the DMZ.
What goes unmentioned by the press and woe Sayers is that both the United States and South Korean armies are very competent at planning counterbattery fires, have excellent radar and sensor systems, very well trained artillery units, and decades to conduct the detailed terrain analysis and surveillance to locate probable concealed firing positions.
The North Koreans may start but their firing points will soon be detected and counterbattery fires laid down to interrupt the barrage and, hopefully, destroy or damage the enemy artillery systems themselves.
The attack will be costly but it won’t go unanswered.
That's my thought, too. Except an intelligent person doesn't leave out something unique to the situation such as that.
As I say every day, thank you, Dear Lord, for your miracle last Election Day.
close to being president...so who actually would have been the leader behind the puppet? Soros?
We're literally within miles of the Mexican and Canadian borders!!!!! Oh noes!
Those days are over. Destroy her anyway imaginable.
THREAD WINNER!!
Conservative writers seems to like referring to Hillary Clinton as “the failed 2016 presidential candidate” as much as I like calling Donald J. Trump “Mr. President.” Both have a really good ring to them!!
She used to channel Eleanor Roosevelt; now she’s upped her game to channeling Maxine Waters and Sheila Jackson Lee
Palin never said she could see Russia from her front porch. An actress doing an impersonation of Palin said it.
South Korea does not technically border North Korea. There’s a DMZ between the two countries. But I do NOT believe this is what Hillary meant.
Couldn't happen to a more deserving POS.
Can only hope the process is also painful.
