Hillary: I Have a Lot of Questions About the Legitimacy of the 2016 Election
breitbart ^ | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 11/18/2017 5:44:20 AM PST by davikkm

During an interview with Mother Jones Senior Reporter Ari Berman released on Friday, former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton stated she has many questions about the legitimacy of the 2016 election.

Interviewer Ari Berman asked, “So between the Republican voter suppression you talked about and Russian interference, do you think it was a legitimate election?”

Hillary said, “I think that there are lots of questions about its legitimacy, and we don’t have a method for contesting that in our system. That’s why I’ve long advocated for an independent commission to get to the bottom of what happened. Because, look, this is the first time we’ve ever been attacked by a foreign adversary, and then they suffer no real consequences. And so, I’m worried that we’re not learning all the lessons, it’s one of the reasons why I wrote the book. Because I wanted people at least to understand what I saw as the factors, including shortcomings of myself and my campaign. But the forces at work outside my campaign are not going away. Somebody else is going to be running for Congress, or governor, or eventually president. We’ve got to know how to protect ourselves.”

And you dared to question Trump on the results of the election in the third debate. A year later, you’re still pisswhining. As far as what happened Hillary; Trump happened.

Donalds reply was great: "Crooked Hillary Clinton is the worst (and biggest) loser of all time. She just can’t stop, which is so good for the Republican Party. Hillary, get on with your life and give it another try in three years!"

They only get mad when the electoral college doesn’t vote enough in their direction. Plus Hillary isn’t as charming as Obama was.

More lunatic ravings from Kankles, from a pathetic interview with the laughable Mother Jones magazine.

Will just one person have the balls to remind her what she said about Trump not accepting the outcome of the election?

Hillary should file her complaints with the Bernie Sanders camp, and see if they will help her.

“That’s horrifying.” ... “That is not the way our democracy works. It’s been around 240 years. We’ve had free and fair elections; we’ve accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them and that is what must be expected of anyone standing on a debate stage during a general election.” ... “And let’s be clear about what he is saying and what that means. He is denigrating — he’s talking down our democracy. And I for one am appalled that somebody who is the nominee of one of our two major parties would take that kind of position.” — Hillary Clinton, Final Presidential Debate, October 19, 2016

(final debate via CBS, beginning at 1:07:18)

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Trump’s comment demonstrated “contempt for the sanctity of our elections. With his ‘wait and see’ position, he disrespects the voice and votes of the American people.”

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., called Trump’s comments “horrifying” and demanded that he “immediately reverse course and state that he will accept the results of our free and fair elections.”

(includes clip of the initial question and their responses from FOX coverage of the debate)

The president, campaigning in Miami for Hillary Clinton and Senate candidate Chris Murphy, said that “when you try to sow the seeds of doubt in people’s minds about the legitimacy of our elections, that undermines our democracy.” ... “Then you are doing the work of our adversaries for them,” Obama argued. “Because our democracy depends on people knowing their vote matters.” (October 20, 2016)

“Donald Trump refused to say that he’d respect the results of this election. That’s a direct threat to our democracy.” — 10:53 AM - 24 Oct 2016 (Hillary Clinton tweet)
