Hillary launches into epic laundry list of excuses for her disastrous 2016

Safely out of the woods: Blame-game = Scapegoat game

Hillary lost for one reason, and one reason alone: Most people in most states didn’t want her to be President. Democrats like to point to the meaningless popular vote, but the bottom line is Hillary didn’t take enough states to claim the brass ring. We’ve gone over the reasons why this happened dozens of times, so we won’t rehash them here. Just know that the short answer is this: people didn’t want her in office.

That seems obvious to anyone who was paying attention in 2015 and 2016, but don’t try convincing Hillary. She’s got a laundry list of reasons that caused the implosion of her planned ascension.

Let's admit the real reason Hillary Clinton lost: she couldn't refute the charges from Peter Schweizer's book Clinton Cash and the video made from that movie.

Indeed, the entire email server scandal was part of the shenanigans at the Clinton Foundation/Clinton Global Initiative. And the description from the book and video of how the Clintons essentially embezzled huge amounts of money earmarked for humanitarian relief from the 2010 Haiti earthquake turned off WAY too many voters.

Another element of the popular vote myth is that one state, kalifornia, gave the hildabeast the popular vote. It was won by a disproportionate distribution of votes compared to the rest of the states west of the Mississippi (and many east).

There should be some very serious questions as to why that happened because the most likely answer is voter fraud on a massive scale. Arguably, that fraud was initiated by a foreign government, mexico.

#17 Her only message was “I’m a woman, Trump is bad, and I’ll be 0bama’s 3rd term.” Yes, an angry old hag with a twisted desire for power; and NO leadership skills. Her political positons were dictated by the highest bidders, and her personality (if I may use that term) was so irritating, she was doomed from the start. DJT is a patriot, who sacrificed everything for the Country he loves. Team Trump = MAGA!

Do you actually think that a single HRC voter was swayed by Schweizer’s book?

Had she won the nomination in '08 she would have thrashed McPain but the Democrats turned to a first term senator that never had a job. In '16 she had a hard time (and maybe the fix from Donna and the DNC) to beat an old commie for the nomination. Then she faced possibly The weakest candidate the GOP ever ran and still lost.

Please Hillary, just go away. You're embarrassing yourself.

Quite possibly one of the worst candidates ever. HRC had no ability to connect with people or appear to be genuine. I cannot recall a candidate who avoided public appearances, so often and had not platform or message. Trump outworked her, plain and simple.

Hillary’s next career move will be as stage mother during Chelsea’s listening tour for the US Senate for the State of New York.

Without even reading the article, I’m guessing that “dishonest felon who should be in jail” is not on the list.

Greed and overconfidence.

She led by double digits in CA, but still felt the need to fundraise there instead of campaigning in PA, IA, MI, WI, etc. Why? Photo ops and big checks...

One major reason that she lost, is because she never takes blame. Just excuses.

Oh, you mean (my guess) as much as $350 to $400 million from the Hollywood Left?

Calling the American people “deplorable” didn’t help. The fact that she’s a lowlife, greedy, thieving human being didn’t help either. She’s a loser. Hopefully, the turds down at the DNC will run her again in 2020.

“but the Democrats turned to a first term senator that never had a job.”

Obama and Hillary both almost fit that description. Hillary was beginning a second term.

I don't think she helped herself much when she told 5 million NRA members how proud she was to be their enemy. Ohio, Michigan, and Pennsylvania are full of NRA members and she lost Michigan and Pennsylvania narrowly. He stance on coal didn't help in any of those states either.

She can blame Russia all she wants but Russ Feingold lost to Ron Johnson in Wisconsin too and that suggests that it was about more than just Hillary. That race was overshadowed by Trump's win but it was a pretty big deal. Perhaps Wisconsin had simply had enough "fundamental transformation". perhaps all of those battleground states had had enough.

That’s what I think. She announced a run on her cell phone, disappeared for weeks afterwards, occasionally waddled around the country calling on her donors and pals in Hollywood and called that a campaign. Thinking herself a celebrity, she just intermittently appeared before the common folk, yelled against trump, left, and thought that was suppose to be enough.

Hillary had nothing. She offered nothing and no one can tell you to this day what her plan for being a president even was.

Being Hillary Clinton was suppose to make her a damn shoe-in.

She could add:
-Enthusiastic recommendation of hot beverage “mistaken” for seizure
-Hacking up a big white “frog” on live tv
-Multiple hissy fits, including calling Donna Brazile a water buffalo
-Weiner’s video of her with Huma and a young girl
-unable to balance on a short step stool
-inappropriate laughter about killing Qaddafi
