Hillary Clintons list of excuses for why she lost the election keeps getting longer.
The former secretary of state has offered up a litany of scapegoats not named Hillary Clinton for her loss. She has already blamed her loss on misogyny, former FBI Director James Comey and WikiLeaks. Her aides have blamed white supremacy and the media. Now, Clinton is adding to the list.
Clinton blamed alleged voter suppression for her loss during an interview with New York magazine published on Friday. Clinton, citing no evidence to support her claims, said that the alleged voter suppression was especially bad in Wisconsin, where low turnout hurt her campaign.
Left unmentioned, however, is the fact that Clinton virtually ignored Wisconsin during the general election. Clinton didnt set foot in Wisconsin once during her general election campaign, and ran almost no campaign ads until shortly before the election.
Clinton claimed that what I was doing was working. I would have won had I not been subjected to the unprecedented attacks by Comey and the Russians, aided and abetted by the suppression of the vote, particularly in Wisconsin.
While searching for explanations after the election, some progressives seized on voter suppression in the form of voter ID laws as a reason Trump won. Even liberal news sources are having a tough time buying that line of reasoning, however. Reliably liberal fact-checker Snopes ruled the claim unproven because there was no evidence to support it, while liberal website Vox flat out rejected it.
Clintons blaming of voter suppression doesnt appear to be an off-the-cuff remark.
The largest pro-Clinton super PAC during the 2016 election, Priorities USA, produced an analysis of voter turnout that claimed voter suppression had a significant impact on the electoral outcome.
Delusional at best, this one!
Clinton won’t be physically able to run. No, I have to wonder who the Dems will tap.
voter turnout in WI was 92,284 more in 2016 than 2014. So much for that.
Voter Suppression = Not enough Illegal Votes
no to mention that giant, stinky butt on her....there will never be a female US President...imho
They saw some news on voter fraud this week and thought that they better stop any efforts to fix it by blaming her loss on it.
#1 was in 2008. The Difference between 2012 and 2016 was only 64,882 in favor of Obama.
He's good enough.
He's smart enough.
And gosh darn, people like him.
: )
Hey Hill try singing this:
Twinkle twinkle little star how I wonder why I lost?
Some Geek needs to design a Rubik’s Cube of reasons why Hillary lost the election.
What gets me beyond her complete inability to blame herself for literally anything is the complete inability of the Democrats to realize the American public just might want to elect one of the major businessmen of the 20th and 21st centuries to fix a moribund economy. What’s even more astonishing is the inability of the REPUBLICANS to realize that might just be a factor. As always Mrs. Peel, we’re needed.
Her primary opponent won 22 states, and due to the rigged dem primaries, she was given the nomination. This while thing is one big lie.
Theres a marketing opportunity here. I can see it now: The Hillary Clinton Excuse-A-Day Calendar. Every day has a new excuse for her loss. I have no doubt that at the rate shes going, shell soon have enough excuses to cover 365 days. Each excuse will be one more idiotic than the last.
This is the best news I’ve heard today and a nice Memorial Day treat.
People no longer feel they have to lie to polsters about this creep.

There are many terrible reasons for President Trumps victory, but there are two things that were not a factor. First, Hillary was the perfect candidate; nothing she did harmed her candidacy in any way. Second, President Trump was the worst candidate imaginable; nothing he did helped his candidacy at all, except with racists, sexists, bigots, and the rest of the basket of deplorables.
The buckets of lies der Hildebeast spews every time she opens her mouth, reminds us of why we opposed her. I guess when we get tired of her BS someone will throw that bucket of water on the witch with a criminal indictment.
Maybe the Russians interfered by messing with the traffic light systems in the big cities. All you have to do is hack their control systems to prevent the big Democrat voter buses from getting to the polls on time. Another way is to have Russians stop their cars on the interstates to prevent the DemonRATs in voter buses from going from state to state and voting for the dead voters. I bet the DemonRATs are mad as hell about that!
yep, she’s just throwing poop up against the wall to see if any sticks.
