The former Democratic presidential candidate cited Russian meddling in the election, FBI Director James Comey's involvement toward the end of the race, WikiLeaks theft of emails from her campaign chairman, and misogyny. At least half of the voters never heard the factors cited by the Hildebeest so they could not have been deciding factors in her defeat.

It had absolutely nothing to do with the laziest campaign ever mounted, or the smug entitled way she conducted herself, or the fanatical over the top reporting by her media lapdogs, or the fact that she had absolutely no message other than “I’m a woman and Trump is bad.”

She very well may, but she will NEVER admit the truth of it even to herself. And anyone who tries to to tell her the facts/reality of it, had best look out for flying lamps, ashtrays, and vases!

And, she was a TERRIBLE candidate, overall, for POTUS.

"Trump got more electoral votes than the crazy evil bitch did. That's why he won and she lost. "
The founding fathers anticipated the arrival of felony clinton. I guess they're not the anachronism demRATs wish us to believe.

That’s because every mirror she has ever looked in, either laughed at her, mocked her by saying in a cutesy voice “who’s the fairest one of them all”, and kept on laughing. Or just cried out “Ah hell, it’s her!” and broke into a million shards.

...when irritated they let off a foul odor. Come to think of it, that pretty much describes all libturds. It's pretty rough being around them because they are irritated about 125% of the time.
