Bottom line, Hillary is a two time loser, and she alone is responsible for it. Live with it honey, it's your legacy.

The former Secretary of State and Democratic hopeful discussed how difficult it was for her to come to terms with losing to political wildcard Trump and said it was not what she expected.
“I thought I’d be a damn good president, I did not think I was going to lose,” she said in an interview with The Sunday Times Magazine.
Mrs Clinton describe her loss as “deeply troubling” and said is left her feeling a “sense of real loss for our country, that we elected someone who knows so little, cares even less and is just seeking the applause of the masses”.
“I feel a terrible sense of responsibility for not having figured out how to defeat this person,” she said. “There must have been a way and I didn't find it."
But she also said that, despite shortcomings in her campaign, they were “not the full story” as to why she ultimately lost.
She told interviewer Christina Lamb that Trump ran a campaign rife with “sexism and misogyny” and he himself “advocated violence [and] said all kinds of terrible things”.
"Trump was running a reality-TV campaign filled with personal attacks, giving people a great show,” she said.
"It was a combination of playing on the fears of people who are worried about losing out in the future by fuelling sexism, racism and anti-immigrant feelings.”
And she said the UK Brexit vote should have rung alarm bells for her as the same people were backing Trump’s campaign – namely former Ukip leader Nigel Farage.
“They thought, 'Hey, we've got this figured out, just tell a really horrible lie over and over again, keep people off balance and make them think that this will, if not make their lives better, make them feel better',” she said.
“They voted against modern Britain and the EU, believing that somehow this would be good for their small village. The same thing played out in my race, but I didn't think we were so vulnerable. But it turned out we were wrong.
“[Farage] came to the US to campaign for Trump and spent half of his remarks insulting me in a very personal way and talking about Trump as the alpha male, the silver-backed gorilla. Think of those images and what that says about what's acceptable and what's not."
Mrs Clinton said she also feels the Trump administration is now seeking to undermine much of her work as secretary of state under the Obama administration – specifically in building international relations.
“It’s not about me,” she said. “It’s about the message that sends to the world and what his priorities are, what he values and what he doesn’t.”
The former First Lady, who published her account on the election in a book titled ‘What Happened’, said she turned to writing as a method of understanding her experience.
She said the writing process helped, as well as having more time to spend with her grandchildren, but that she was still living the experience “every day”.
A friend gave me a little sign that says ‘I do yoga, I meditate and I still want to kick somebody’,” she said.
“I know that feeling.”
Failed Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. How come we don’t see that in every article about her. We still see “failed VP candidate Sarah Palin” and that was 8 9 years ago.
The whole premise of the investigation of the cult was the welfare of the children within it. Then our government (democrats) killed them. Really cared for the children don’t they? So sad.
My eyes can’t roll further back into my head without coming out my neck.
THIS WOMAN IS UPSET EVERY DAY and wants to kill/kick somebody. Believe me, if Trump had lost, he would now have completely forgotten about it and moved on to live his life. Trump is violent??? How many people did he have killed because they might stop his megalomaniacal path to control others and take their money? Trump is misogynist?? Who attempts to silence, with threats of death, and death to their families, women who were victims of her husband’s unwanted sexual attacks?????
It’s too much. She is proving to be the stupidest woman in the world. She is butterfly filleting her malignant narcissism out and displaying it to the world like no other serial killer was ever stupid enough to do.
She just wont shownt shut up or go away!
Perhaps we should declare Free Republic a Hillary Free Zone?
Trump made a critical strategic, political and historic error when he failed to prosecute her crimes.
Hillary tells of ‘terrible responsibility’ she feels for not beating Trump
Major Loon getting loonyer every day. What a burden to America to have this Creep yapping all day about absolutely nothing.
“Double failed presidential candidate Clinton” would probably push her even deeper off the edge. Keep her away from bumpstocks.
She’s just trying to remain relevant so as to collect speaking fees ... few takers, though. Mrs. Bill Clinton is time-worn news.
It involved not being a corrupt, unlikeable old sot.
You didn't qualify.
“The Communist or the Crook”
How much guilt does she feel about the number of dead people left in the wake of the Clintons & their political careers???
I am including the dead at Benghazi, which I blame on Shrillary directly.
Bottom line, Hillary is a two time loser, and she alone is responsible for it. Live with it honey, it's your legacy.
First, Hillary claims this is not about her. Barf! Hillary has always been about herself and no one else. Nobody believes this phony attempt at "humbleness" on her part. Nobody but Hillary.
Second, she claims she wrote the book "What [The Hale] Happened" to try to to come to terms with her loss. Problem is, she did not write the book. Her campaign operatives wrote the book for her. Another Hillary claim, another outright lie. Nothing unusual about that when it comes to Hillary.
Remember the Quinnipiac poll where the public was asked what was the first word that came to mind when thinking of Hillary? Top three terms the public thought of her were "liar, dishonest and untrustworthy."
But also included on the list of the top 50 responses were "crook, untruthful, criminal, deceitful, corrupt, crooked, murder, bitch, phony, cheat, deceptive, scandal, sneaky, arrogant, thief, devious, and unqualified."
Not exactly a pretty picture to paint for being president.
"Why am I not 50 points ahead?"
Go back to the wods, ya Commie fat azz cow! ...
Trump was the ultimate infiltrator.
He fooled them all!!
Pres. Trump must be laughing every day at the
clueless Democrats he's had to deal with.
Oh sure she does
meh
No mention of any guilt for using her office as a pay to play scam or a thousand other crimes; just the guilt of losing a fair election to someone else.
I didn’t see this year long BS tour after losing to Hussein the Corrupt Gay Muslim Kenyan Liar.
This is IT! I’m sick to death of yet one more installment of the sociopathic ramblings of this corrupt b*tch. Freepers can repost this crap until he next ice age comes, but I won’t be giving it any clicks and will never again comment on the Clinton madness. The woman is dead to me - as she should be to every thinking American. It galls me no end that she and her crime family have not and will never be brought to justice. Do everyone a favor and stop posting this crap her on FR. Hillary has unfettered access to the liberal/prog press and television talk shows. Stop making FR yet another avenue to her demented ravings...please!
