Clinton Basically Admits She Learned Nothing From Losing to Trump
New York Observer ^ | December 9, 2016 | Michael Sainato

Hillary Clinton took a break from hikes and surprising pop artists with awards to give her first speech since her loss in the presidential election to Donald Trump.

The Dakota Access Pipeline, the mistrial of the police officer who killed Walter Scott, controversial administration picks by Trump, there are are myriad important recent issues Clinton could have commented on since November 8. Instead, she focused on the issue that is the most self-serving to her public image recovery, confirming she hasn’t changed at all after her failure to win the presidency.

Using the recent “pizzagate” incident as a hook, Clinton chose to issue a call to action against the “epidemic of malicious fake news and false propaganda that flooded social media over the past year.” Fake news is an issue, but Clinton’s rhetoric fails to acknowledge her part in propagating it...

Fake polls are real, too. They were created for her.

Of course not, because she doesn’t think she lost

Clinton has every right to be angry about fakenews, after all, she fell for the fakepolls put out by the fakenews outlets, and listened to the nightly spews on CNN, MSNBC, et.al., that said she was going to win in a walk.

Yes, and they were created as insurance so they could push this Russian meme if Trump won.

It is interesting to see; all the attention that the NYT, Washington Post, and other such as ‘The Kelly File’, etc... have paid to the Pizzagate story in order to discredit it. Methinks thou dost protest too much...

From the photos of late that I have seen of her, she appears to be doing just that.

THIS is a marvelous idea. For her to just stay drunk, and out of the limelight. Maybe she will sober up for her upcoming trial for lying under oath.

Yes, the woman who claimed Benghazi was caused by a YouTube video is concerned about fake news.

Agreed. There’s probably less than a million that know much about it, yet right from the beginning they were discrediting it in full force. When has any other conspiracy or theory received so many attacks from the beginning? Especially since they say the conspiracy is only about a local pizza joint.

In her grandiose mind she knows all. Everyone else is to learn from her.

Hillary Clinton is like the old Bourbon kings of France — she learns nothing and forgets nothing.

What do you expect when Hillary's attitude was "Me, me, me!" and essentially ignored the political advice of Paul Begala, James Carville and her OWN husband?! You know, the team that won the 1992 and 1996 Presidential elections?

Is it called “megalomania”, or is it even more complicated
than that?

You got it wrong. As the article says, she "... Clinton’s rhetoric fails to acknowledge her part in propagating it..."

She's angry that not enough people fell for it.
