Hillary Tells of Screaming Into Pillow, Election Night Shock in Irish TV Interview
Gateway Pundit ^ | 10/6/2017 | Damien Cowley

Posted on 10/06/2017 4:31:07 PM PDT by RightGeek

In a television interview broadcast on Ireland’s ‘’Late Late Show’’, former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, opened up on the unfolding of events on election night 2016.

Promoting her campaign memoir, ‘What Happened’, Clinton described the night and its aftermath as ‘’painful’’ and ‘’so terrible’’.

‘’I would have to go lie down because it was so excruciating’’, she joked to interviewer Ryan Tubridy in a candid conversation, filmed near her home in Chappaqua, New York.

“I was in a state of shock. I had not prepared a concession speech,” the former presidential candidate revealed, explaining that whilst expecting a close result, her campaign remained confident of victory up until early election night returns began to suggest otherwise.

Whilst discussing the inauguration of President Trump, asked if she wanted to scream, Clinton told RTÉ, “Oh, I did. But that was a common occurrence in those days. You know, scream into the pillow when I saw what was happening.”

“I would have been disappointed and really unhappy if I had lost to a normal Republican. But to lose to someone who I believed profoundly was not ready for the job, was temperamentally unqualified for the job – was such a burden.

‘’I just thought, ‘I’ve let everybody down, I’ve let my country down, I’ve let the world down. How did this happen?” Clinton recalled.

Someone with true presidential mettle ALWAYS prepares a concession speech.

Hillary’s post election angst is the best Schadenfreude I’ve ever had.

She did NOT cry into a pillow the night of the Benghazi attack.

She’s an evil selfcentered bitch who disgraced her office.

More and more she proves that she is mentally unfit for the office she sought.

Thank You, God, for sparing America from this harridan.

Now, LOCK HER UP!

So did Hillary explain why her campaign cancelled the fireworks display a couple days before the election if they were so sure of victory that her staff didn't bother to help her write a concession speech? Maybe they got laid off a couple days early and that's why Hillary didn't have it. Or maybe she had one but just couldn't bring herself to face the crowd?

It does explain why the folks in Benghazi were left hanging like her supporters on election night.

Imagine the unthinkable, that Clinton’s wife had won the presidency. Then try to imagine private citizen Donald Trump later saying he screamed into his pillow over his loss.

Thank you, God, for sparing the world from a presidency of Clinton’s wife.
