Clinton book to double down on Russia, Comey message
The Hill ^ | July 26,2017 | By Amie Parnes

Posted on 07/26/2017 6:22:21 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Hillary Clinton’s upcoming book will double down on Russia’s interference and James Comey’s involvement in her stunning election defeat, according to sources familiar with the memoir.

Privately, Clinton has told friends and longtime associates that she “wants the whole story out there” as she rushes to tweak and put the finishing touches on the book due out in September.

“She really believes that’s why she lost, and she wants to explain why in no uncertain terms,” one longtime ally said. “She wants the whole story out there from her own perspective. I think a lot of people are going to be really surprised by how much she reveals.”

The ally said the book of personal essays will be a “bombshell.”

The memoir’s focus on how Russia and Comey, the former FBI director fired earlier this year by President Trump, cost Clinton the White House would run counter to recent messaging from Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and other Democrats about the party’s disappointing 2016 results.

“When you lose to somebody who has 40 percent popularity, you don’t blame other things — Comey, Russia — you blame yourself,” Schumer told The Washington Post earlier this week. “So what did we do wrong? People didn’t know what we stood for, just that we were against Trump. And still believe that.”

Clinton book to double down on Russia, Comey message

Who really cares what the clintons say? Their "book deals" are little more than methods for money to be funneled to them. Their followers don't/can't read and no one else wants to read more of their drivel and fake news.

These book deals must be political pay offs..

Her last book sold..

Publishing sources said that Clinton has sold 177,236 hardcovers. E-book sales aren’t available, but her numbers are very low, said the sources. Even at 200,000 total sales, simple math finds that for Simon & Schuster to cover the $14 million advance, each book would have had to sell for about $70. Amazon offers it for $20.94, about $14 off the $35 list price. It has dropped to 103rd in Amazon sales, compared to 10th for Blood Feud.

Even at full price, 200,000 in sales would cover just half — $7 million — of Clinton’s advance.

"she “wants the whole story out there“"

Yeah, uh-huh. LOL

I think the first 4 words should read: "Once upon a time..."

The self-delusion is strong with her.

Oooooo, Hillary, please keep it up! We need a super-super majority in the Senate, as right now there are too many RINOs there, who will not allow the People’s Agenda to be implemented!

If Sessions would do his job, she’d be writing it from a prison cell.

Ahh, but the Russians, that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a Russian attempt to hack the election DID exist . . . .

I can’t wait for the chapter on why a presidential candidate didn’t or couldn’t face the nation on election night.

I looked Comey in the eye. He was mesmerized by the power they cast.

I asked him if he had ever been to Marcy Park. He began to quiver.

White House goes on offense, slams DNC, Clintons for ‘collusion’

FoxNews.com ^ | July 12, 2017 | Brooke Singman

The White House has been grappling all week with revelations of a meeting the president’s eldest son held last year with Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya, who was said to have dirt on Hillary Clinton as part of a Russian government effort to help the Trump campaign.

But Deputy White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders used Wednesday’s off-camera briefing to highlight DNC and Clinton ties to foreign governments including Russia and Ukraine.

“If we’re looking at Russia relationships with anybody, it would be directly with the Clintons,” she said, citing examples of a speech former President Bill Clinton gave in Russia for which he reportedly earned over $500,000 and reports of then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton selling what Sanders described as “a third of the world’s uranium,” to Russia.

If you haven’t seen this yet, it’s a must-see. Maria Bartiromo lays it on Clinton campaign chair John Podesta for his *genuine* ties to the Russian government...

Note: I linked to the YouTube search results for “maria bartiromo” + “podesta”, rather than a single video, as these things tend to ‘disappear’ from the popular video hosting site.
