Friday on The View, hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar revealed they were still in denial over the 2016 election results. Discussing the leaked excerpts from Hillary Clintons upcoming memoir, the two die-hard liberals at the table clashed with moderate hosts Paula Faris and Jedediah Bila, over the reasons why Clinton lost the election.
Joy Behar even went so far as to claim that Clinton really did win the election, while Whoopi went into conspiracy theory land, saying we would never know why Clinton really lost.
The conversation started by discussing Bernie Sanders recent television appearance, where he told Clinton to essentially move on after she blamed him for losing the election. That morphed into a discussion on why Clinton lost, and what chances she had at winning.
Whoopi began with a confusing spiel that seemed to argue that it was Fox News fault for Clinton losing, because they attacked Obama while he was in office and that irreparably damaged the Democrat party so she couldnt win:
But let's be realistic. Do you really think she was going to win? Based on everything that the Democrats did when they let Obama -- left him out there floating and the flotsam and jetsam and all this stuff that Fox News did and all those folks. You know, there have been very few eight years of one party and eight years of the same party. It doesn't generally go back to back. The last time I think was Nixon and whoever came in after him was the last. Ford. And he pardoned. That was the last time we had a long stretch. When it wasn't Democrat, Republican, Democrat Republican. So given all the crap that Obama had to eat from his own party, I don't think Bernie was going to -- I don't think any Democrat was going to--people were going to vote --
Behar then revealed she was still clinging to the liberal conspiracy theory that somehow the electoral college didnt count:
JOY BEHAR: But she did win. She did win! [applause]BILA: She didn't win though because the electoral college is what determines---
Whoopi took a different approach, instead suggesting that the election was unfair and there was secret reasons as to why Clinton lost that we would never find out:
WHOOPI: I believe that was not going to happen. The truth of the matter is, if this election happened in any other country the way it happened here, we would have sent people to go and check. To see what was going on.
Whoopi: 'We Will Never Know' Why Clinton Lost 2016 Election
BEHAR: Yeah.
WHOOPI: We will never know. We'll never know. We'll never know.
Behar took Clinton’s approach in blaming everyone but Clinton, and called the book “patriotic” to all the Americans who didn’t think she got a fair shot:
BEHAR: But don’t forget the things that we do know are that Comey released this information about her two weeks or a week before the election. That was very detrimental to her campaign and everybody who was on the fence said well -- and they're saying crooked Hillary. And they're saying ‘Oh yeah crooked Hillary’ and he confirms it in a way and he says nothing about the Trump investigation and then you have the Russians interfering with our election. There were so many things that went against her that I think she has every right to write a book and speak about it. [ Applause ]
BILA: She has a right--
BEHAR: It’s patriotic and it’s in the interest of the country. [ Talking over one another ]
Host Paula Faris tried to bring up the fact that Clinton wouldn’t take any responsibility for losing the election, but Behar and Whoopi were already in fantasy land, and denied that Clinton lost “fair and square.” Again, Whoopi brought up her theory that the election was rigged against Clinton:
FARIS: I think at some point you also have to take responsibility and I think if she would say, you know what, I lost fair and square, I think the problem is --
WHOOPI: But we don’t know that she did lose fair and square. See that’s the thing. That’s what I’m saying.
FARIS: Hence when you play a game, you're gracious in victory and you’re gracious in defeat. There's nothing more annoying when you start to blame everybody else. You need to take some responsibility for what you did on the field.
WHOOPI: But your children aren't playing on a game field where the parents are coming and hitting the ball for them. And then saying we won. My simple point is this, had this election happened anywhere else the way it did, we as America would have gone in to check and see all the checks and balances. We'll never know what happened and now is the time for her to say ‘this is how I feel about what went on and I don't like this happened and this is how I feel and this is how it felt to me. This is how I see it’ and she has a right to do that.
As if all other cards hadn’t been played, Behar added the sexism card to the pile:
“Let's not forget misogyny played a big role in this. This country refuses to put a woman in power,” she added emphatically.
Are they calling Hillary a liar?
Bet we don’t see that in a headline anywhere.
I don't expect them to ever be smart enough to figure it out.
Oooh! Oooh! I know!
She lost because she’s an arrogant, corrupt, drunken dumb butt!
I don’t expect those 2 will ever figure it out, but here’s a little help if they try:
You created “us” when you attacked our freedom of speech.
You created “us” when you attacked our right to bear arms.
You created “us” when you attacked our Christian beliefs.
You created “us” when you constantly referred to us as racists.
You created “us” when you constantly called us xenophobic.
You created “us” when you told us to get on board or get out of the way.
You created “us” when you attacked the American flag
You created “us” when you took God out of our schools.
You created “us” when you confused women’s rights with feminism.
You created “us” when you began to emasculate men.
You created “us” when you decided to make our children soft.
You created “us” when you decided to vote for progressive ideals.
You created “us” when you attacked our way of life.
You created “us” when you decided to let our government get out of control.
You created “us” the silent majority
You created “us” when you began murdering innocent law enforcement officers.
You created “us” when you lied and said we could keep our insurance plans and our doctors
You created “us” when you allowed our jobs to continue to leave our country.
You created “us” when you took a knee, or stayed seated or didn’t remove your hat during our National Anthem.
You created “us” when you forced us to buy health care and then financially penalized us for not participating.
You created “us” when you started pretending that pre-born people aren’t people.
You created “us” when you started pretending there is no difference between a boy and a girl.
And we became fed up and we pushed back and spoke up.
And we did it with ballots, not bullets.
“YOU” created “US”.
It really is just that simple.
Because 10 million fraudulent votes still couldn’t get the job done.
A county map will explain everything.
I think if there had been a bench around for her to sit on....she would not have been able to rise. They would have had to lift her.
I do agree with you....they’ve done this before and know the process. She probably goes to some hotel room or apartment....gets a shot of something, twenty minutes of recovery, and back up...every single time. I also would make a bet that the temperature has something to do with this, and that heat is a bad thing for her ‘problem’.
How do you dummies feel not knowing why Hillary lost when the rest of the country understands it just fine?
She lost the election because she is an odious reptile. This isomething which escapes the attention of most other odious reptiles.
I tend to agree. She lost her momentum then and never recovered it. The conversation went to her obvious incapacities at that point and never fully came off of that again.
We was tard of crooks thinkin' they can be president.
Mainly, because she didn’t listen to her husband’s advice, or turn him loose. The people who put Trump over the top were also Clinton voters. He had much more chance of getting them, than her people did.
People love potatoes.
Re: “We Will Never Know Why Clinton Lost Election”
We know exactly why she lost...
Defective polling in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, which caused politically fatal overconfidence.
And failure to turn out core Democrat voters in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
Re: “If not for voter fraud it [Clinton’s defeat] would have been much bigger.”
We are ten months past the election.
I doubt even a hundred people have been arrested for Clinton voter fraud.
There are 35 states that have a Republican governor and 33 states that have a two chamber Republican legislature.
If there really was massive voter fraud in 2016, why are at least 35 Red States doing absolutely nothing to stop it?
It’s simple, really. After eight years of Obama, Americans were ready for a male president.
God is indeed for real folks!
She lost cause she received fewer electoral votes than Donald Trump.
WHY am I not 50% ahead???
"I never had sexual relations with that woman...Miss Lewinsky."
..... and the other one swears to it.
=============================================
TIME COVER The Clintons "Solidarity Act"
Leaving the WH arm-in-arm after Bill got lewinskied.
Plotting to exploit Bill's BJ for votes.
The Clintons' political apparat never faltered.
Cool as a cucumber, Hillary lied on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of a VRWC."
Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.
He had to pay Paula Jones 800,000 dollars.
==========================================
Incidentally Chelsea, did your "kindly sensitive parents" tell you the reason you were being hustled out of the WH? Did mom and dad tell you daddy got a BJ in the Oval office? Did they explain the details of a BJ to you?
B/c American parents were forced to explain a BJ to their young children thanks to the self-centered "Nobody's business but ours" Clintons.
