Hillary Rodham Clinton still cannot let 2016 go—and that goes for her supporters as well. The entire Democratic establishment is still seething over her epic loss to President Donald J. Trump. They all read FiveThirtyEight and the Huffington Post’s polls. It had her chances of winning at 90+ percent. Then, they all got punched in the mouth. Trump won. We won, you lost, and the country soldiers on. But as with all losers, especially high-profile ones like Clinton, there’s the book deal, the tour, and the endless interviews of who’s to blame. For Hillary, it was everyone, but her that was to blame for her 2016 loss. The FBI, the media, James Comey, Bernie Sanders, the Democratic National Committee, sexism, misogyny, Russia, Vladimir Putin, Obama, and Joe Biden. It’s their fault, but hers. Now, she always says, ‘I take responsibility, but’ when asked what happened by the press. And that so happened to be the title of her book about that contentious campaign. There’s a new item to add to the ‘why I lost’ whine tour: the Voting Rights Act (via Yahoo! News):
Speaking Sunday at the historic Brown Chapel AME Church, former secretary of state, first lady and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton suggested a key Supreme Court decision may have cost her the White House.
Clinton was participating in an annual commemoration of the 1965 Selma to Montgomery marches that included the infamous “Bloody Sunday,” when civil rights activists were viciously beaten by white police and protesters. The church where she spoke was the starting point for the marches, which were organized by a group that was pushing for voting rights and included Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga. Clinton connected the push for voting rights to her 2016 presidential campaign.
“I was the first person who ran for president without the protection of the Voting Rights Act and I will tell you, it makes a really big difference,” Clinton said.
Okay—well, first Clinton would’ve won the election, handily I might add if she did slightly better with white working-class voters in the Rust Belt. She already nabbed a solid portion of the black vote and by solid; I mean 88 percent of black voters.
Lady, you suck. And the fact that you still cannot see that your weakness with white working-class voters was the cause of your downfall explains why you’re not in the White House. It also didn’t help that young people didn’t like or trust you, which was evident in the Democratic primaries. As for outreach to the white working class, it doesn’t help to tell coal-mining communities, already decimated by the Obama administration, that your plan is to put more of them out of work. That’s why you lost, lady. You suck.

It always amazes me that :
1. Hillary is supposedly the smartest woman in the world.
2. Hillary was the best qualified candidate to ever run for president.
3. The Democrat political operatives thought Trump would be the weakest candidate to run against.
4. Trump is supposedly a fool and a buffoon.
5. Yet in spite of them wanting to run against Trump, in spite of the Democrat operatives supposedly being such brilliant political operatives, in spite of Hillary being the smartest woman in the world.....
Then why did the Democrats lose what should have been an easy election for them? Based on their own criteria???
The voting rights act is there to protect the rights of voters.
Hillary, that law is not there, to ensure that a Democratic candidate wins an election due to getting a huge percentage of the vote from various groups of people.
Hillary, it is arrogant and pompous and narcissistic of you, to assume that you would have gotten all the votes from those who were allegedly banned from voting.
That “92Y” in the background...is that the projected length of her sentence?
If she has this evidence, why doesn’t she push for indictments? If this is true it is absolutely disgusting and people should be hauled into court!
If, of course, this is at all true.
“It doesn’t just make a difference in Alabama and Georgia. It made a difference in Wisconsin, where the best studies that have been done said somewhere between 40,000 and 80,000 people were turned away from the polls because of the color of their skin, because of their age, because of whatever excuse could be made up to stop a fellow American citizen from voting,” Clinton said.
She thinks, because she didn’t get as many votes as Obama had, that those votes she didn’t get must have been suppressed. I think that Obama got blacks, who never voted before, to vote for him. And without him on the ballot in 2016, those people who normally don’t vote stayed home and didn’t vote for Hillary.
Milwaukee Democrat votes cast:
2000 Gore 165,598
2004 Kerry 198,907
2008 Obama 213,436
2012 Obama 227,384
2016 Hillary 188,657
I am going to party like 1999 when the hag takes her dirt nap.
Hillaryous Rotten Criminal ALERT!
I’m waiting to hear that she lost because of climate change.
Ah, but the strawberries, that’s, that’s where I had them, they laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, with geometric logic, that the Supreme Court stole my strawberries!
I can see the epitaph on HRC’s tombstone now: “I won, dammit!”
“Ah, but the strawberries, that’s, that’s where I had them, they laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, with geometric logic, that the Supreme Court stole my strawberries!”
click, click ... click, click ... click, click ..
False bravado. Privately, they were scared to death of Trump, and knew all along that he would be a formidable opponent if he won the Republican nomination.
