Hillary Clinton apologized to Obama after Trump's victory
The New York Daily News ^ | April 17, 2017 | Chris Sommerfeldt

Posted on 04/17/2017 9:48:29 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

As it became clear that Donald Trump would become the next leader of the free world, Hillary Clinton called President Obama — and apologized.

"Mr. President, I'm sorry," Clinton told the sitting commander in chief as her unexpected election loss became reality, according to a Washington Post review of a new book about the Democratic presidential candidate's failed 2016 campaign.

Just minutes before that somber apology, Clinton had made another regretful phone call to the man who once labeled her a "nasty woman."

"Congratulations, Donald," Clinton told her opponent, according to the book, "Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign."

The book, set to be released on Tuesday, also recounts how Obama urged Clinton to admit defeat shortly after it became clear that Trump had won Wisconsin around 11 p.m.

"You need to concede," Obama apparently told his former secretary of state over the phone.

"Shattered" goes into great detail about the chaos that enveloped at Clinton's Brooklyn headquarters on the night of Nov. 8. It also spotlights character traits of several campaign officials, including manager Robby Mook and chairman John Podesta.

But, according to the Post, the book conspicuously leaves out details about Russia's role in the election and whether cyber hacks ordered by the Kremlin had anything to do with Clinton's loss.

The U.S. intelligence community has concluded that Russia launched an extensive cyber campaign to help Trump win the White House. Congress is currently investigating whether Trump campaign officials colluded with the Russians.

One of the best nights of my life. When the talking heads were having their meltdowns I felt nothing but good. It was so nice to se that grifter granny get slapped down.

Anyone who was “inside” the Clinton campaign is a liar.

The reason such details are "conspicuously" left out is because they don't exist, in point of fact. Such fantasies only have currency with the most delusional Democrat and GOPe Trump-haters...

Plenty, apparently, because she never actually conceded. She had someone else do it.

She didn't even have the stones to come out to tell all those who showed up to cheer her on to go on home. Podesta had to make up something like the count is still going on and HRC would comment the next day which was actually that day.

I think she started pounding the booze once she knew she lost and was in no condition to face her voters. She may have even had a mental breakdown as she saw her last chance to be something she should never be dissolve into nothingness. There may have been a bit of divine intervention preventing her from killing America as the first woman POTUS following the worst POTUS in US history and first black/arab/kenyan/muslim with no ties to American ancestral blacks. He looked black but he really wasn't just like some Cuban's look black African but really aren't.

We didn't just dodge a bullet by her not getting elected; we dodged the entire nuclear arsenal.

As a huge bonus, and at the risk of sounding like a Trump fanboy, I do believe we may have the best President this country has seen since George Washington himself. Reagan had better charisma and got some good stuff done but I believe President Trump will do so much more and he will do it in an environment that will fight him every step of the way because so many republican pols are more interested in keeping their jobs as senators and reps than working for the common goal of improving life in general for every American with conservative values in mind. In fact I believe some are secretly working with and for the dems and not just as RINO's like McCain and Grahamnesty, deeper under cover than that. All part of the deep state shadow government.

If the corrupt shadow element embedded throughout our government at high levels succeed in pushing for President Trump to be impeached on 'trumped' up charges; I believe that will be the signal for all good men (and women) to come to the aid of our President and our country to spill the blood of traitors deep within our gov if necessary. I pray it isn't but nothing is off the table with these corrupt criminals. President Trump is risking his and his family's life for this country; we may find we need to do the same if the leftist freaks go off the rails

Pardon my ramble. I got kinda carried away (again) and chances are hardly anyone will read it anyway.

Agreed. Sanitized fluff about their heroes from left wingers pimping a book.

Note to media outlets—it is forbidden to write an article about the election of 2016 without alleging Russian interference.

Thanks for playing and Best Wishes.

Two liberal journalists (who also wrote a book called "HRC"--a POSITIVE review of Hitlery's role as SecState) jot down some anecdotes they picked up on the campaign trail and systematize it into an analysis of the race. So the NY Daily Spews decides to look it over. Fair enough.

Much of the book, no doubt, is apocryphal or exaggerated (like this story, perhaps)--but the words of fake journalist Chris Sommerfield of the NY Daily Spews in this article cracked me up:

....the book conspicuously leaves out details about Russia's role in the election

Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha! Keep dreamin', there, Sommerfield. Find a Russkie behind every tree.

She would NEVER say “Mr. President”. Total CRAP.

Of course she would. She'd got used to it while his Secretary of State.

Was an incredible night; brought me back to 2000, when I watched first Gore’s camp, then Bush’s, celebrate the win.

That would be the same intelligence community working overtime to destroy Trump.

I have to agree.

That and Brexit for me - two of the best nights of my life. For the first time in my adult life, I was given hope that the future wouldn’t be dominated by scum.
