Hillary Clinton reflected on her devastating defeat on Wednesday evening, acknowledging the difficulty of her loss for her supporters and urging them to persevere through the Donald Trump era.

In remarks that were equal parts pep talk and funeral dirge, Clinton encouraged her backers to “never, ever give up.”

“I know this isn’t easy. I know that over the past week a lot of people have asked themselves whether America is the country we thought it was,” Clinton said at the annual gala of the Children’s Defense Fund, the child advocacy organization where she started her legal career. “But please listen to me when I say this: America is worth it.” …

I wonder how many of her acolytes comprehend that she is totally bailing on them?

I just realized (sometimes, I’m a little slow) that she must be living in terror, waiting for Trump to assume the presidency. Probably why she paid journalists to write stories telling him not to prosecute her.

I actually watched the video.

Not my regular Wednesday night ritual.

She looked like...

A mud fence.

Two cents waiting for change.

The North end of a Southbound Rino.

Feel FRee to add your own personal description.

Her hairdresser and stylist must have fled to Mexico.
And I think all of the Botox was drained from her body and replaced with despair....

I’m so looking forward to President Trump retiring “America’s Navy”. It’s the US Navy. Period.

Purple jacket and purple highlighted deep blue curtain background. She did look pretty exhausted; it must be tiring to scream, yell and throw heavy objects for hours on end. Oh, yeah and her husband is still a rapist.

I remember how she looked when she was Sec. of State. She let her hair grow long and it didn’t look like she washed it. She wore those thick glasses and hardly wore makeup. I expect to see her going back to that look plus she may put on a few more pounds.

Would not mind seeing him pardon her.She must make public all actions by herself or on her behalf for which she is to be pardoned and refrain from ever being any part of any political actions once the pardon is given. Also her statements must be recorded in such a way that they may be used in future legal actions.

Too funny. Just a few short weeks ago the Clinton Leftists were whining that Trump would not accept defeat.

Evita Clinton will be a speed bump in history.
