Hillary Clinton blamed her 2016 presidential election loss on a variety of sources — including Russian hackers, the Democratic Party, former FBI Director James Comey, the media, social media and misogyny — in a lengthy interview Wednesday.
Clinton struck a far more defiant tone in the appearance at Recode's Code Conference than she had during her previous post-election accounts. While Clinton briefly apologized for using a private email server for official emails while she was secretary of State, much of the interview saw Clinton listing the external factors she felt led to her loss.
"I was the victim of a very broad assumption I was going to win," Clinton said.

Hillary is now a comic - a comedian.
And so is her daughter, Chelsea.
What a bunch of village idiots.
So much material...
Hillary is the poster child for Melvin Udall's description of women:
"you take a man and you take away reason and accountability."
Yeah.
And the sun was in her eyes and the refs were against her.
Poor,poor pitiful me!
Not from me. I always thought you were a piece of crap.
No...she is only a “victim” of her own delusions and mordant stupidity.

The solution is to quit getting HIGH dummy. When you are high on drugs you can imagine anything. Do the V.A. recovery method and quit the drugs while you are still hurting and deal with the pain!

There are many terrible reasons for President Trump’s victory, but there are two things that were not a factor. First, Hillary was the perfect candidate; nothing she did harmed her candidacy in any way. Second, President Trump was the worst candidate imaginable; nothing he did helped his candidacy at all, except with racists, sexists, bigots, and the rest of the basket of deplorables.
For all of her adult life, Hillary has made one gaffe after another, one crime after another, one misstep after another and every time she blamed someone else and the press lined up and sold that story. For the first time in all those years she is in the situation where she is trying to blame everyone but herself and the world is saying “yeah, it was really you”. Must be hard to accept.
She had high expectations alright—— that the media, fake polls, and vote fraud would come through her bigly.
Remind me, I haven’t seen Bill around or in the news lately.
It never ends. Nothing is her fault.
That’s what happens when you get high and get your expectations up.
Stripes are so slimming.
Jeezus H. mahogany cripes will you get on your effing broom and GO AWAY!!!
And why would anyone want to vote for a victim? She just can’t go away, apparently.
Maybe that last round of bogus polling that showed her leading by 5-10 points in Ohio, Iowa, Florida, North Carolina and tied in South Carolina...the polling that Rachel Maddow was screaming about for 2 days and nights, backfired on her...maybe millions of her “supporters” stayed home because, hell, it’s in the bag.
But I don’t even buy that. I think she lost, in spite of her trying to steal the election in places like Broward County, FL.
