Hillary Clinton Is 'Done,' But Not Going Away
TAMARA KEITH
Hillary Clinton's final campaign for office ended in a shocking defeat. But she isn't going quietly into the night.
"I think the country's at risk, and I'm trying to sound the alarm so more people will at least pay attention," Clinton told NPR.
That said, her career as a candidate is over.
"I'm done. I'm not running for office," Clinton said. But for those, including Democrats, who would like her to just go away? "Well, they're going to be disappointed," she said.
"I'm not going anywhere. I have the experience, I have the insight, I have the scars that I think give me not only the right, but the responsibility to speak out," Clinton said.
In her new campaign memoir, What Happened, and in interviews with Morning Edition's Rachel Martin and NPR's Tamara Keith, Clinton talks about her own failings, but she doesn't hold back on calling out sexism in American politics and heaping criticism on President Trump.
"I think he's being played," Clinton said of Trump, suggesting that he's given aid and comfort to Russia's Vladimir Putin and North Korea's Kim Jong Un. "I think he doesn't even understand the kind of strategic overview of what's happening in the world, and what we need to be doing to prepare, and so I'm gonna keep speaking out."
Asked if she is able to turn on the news without thinking, "What would I do in this situation?" Clinton responded with a laugh.
"No, I do it every single time! Look, I was prepared to be president. I had prepared and worked at it, and I go a little bit batty when I hear him say, 'Gee, this is a really hard job....

So she is not really done. I guess she is confident that she is not going to jail. I hope she is around, reminding people everyday why American people are and will be better off with Trump than her and her rotten bunch.
She only says she’s not running again because she knows that they know that hse’s what America rejected.
Still plenty of loonie lefties around to vote in the next socialist but they just wouldn’t turn out for the self absorbed pathalogical lying traitor.
“I’m not going anywhere. I have the experience, I have the insight, I have the scars, I am the toe fungus of the Democrat party, My cooties have cooties.....”
Not going away... because, Chelsea.
She cannot or will not shut up.
"I'm not going anywhere. I have the experience, I have the insight, I have the scars that I think give me not only the right, but the responsibility to speak out," Clinton said.
Ay-ay-ay...
Scrabble at Chappaqua must be a scream.

She the DemocRATS version of “Banquos Ghost”. She will haunt the party to total destruction.
Rush Limbaugh said years ago the Clintons are the type of people that you invite to your party, and then they never leave.
So true.
Just like Herpes.
Like a penicillin-resistent clap.
So what's the lesson in all of this,ILLary? It's that in the Rat Party race "trumps" gender.
Sure, lady, we need your brand of socialism so we can be like Venezuela.
It’s all about her, whatever damage that may do to anything else. The up side is that most of the harm goes to the left and the longer she goes on the better.
She doesn’t have scars except when she falls down drunk. The people she has had killed have the scars.
Hillary reminds me of a Carroll Burnette skit. The regular cast are playing the part of soap opera actors. Everyone has read that day’s script and knows that the character played by Tim Conway is going to die that day. Tim gets in and discovers his character is going to die and he will be out of a job. He’s got car payments, house payments and kids in school so he can’t afford to lose the job. During the filming Carroll’s character try’s to kill Tim’s character but he dodges the bullet. She chases him around the set and finally catches him and bludgeons him unconscious. He gets dragged off set. In the end he swoops in on a rope dressed as a ghost, saying, “I’m back!”
Hillary is the character who was supposed to exit stage right so the play could continue. She hasn’t and it has upset the whole play for the rest of the actors. Conway was hilarious. Hillary, much less so.
INSPIRED BY HILLARY
<><> "Lose office, Go Home and Shut Up."
INSPIRED BY BILL AND OBAMA
<><> "Leave Office, Go Home and Shut UP."
Fish rots in the sun.
She needs to remain around so the aroma reaches the voters.
Where’s that gif?
She’s not going away as long as there is some way she can squeeze more money from the suckers. Book tours, speeches, you names it, she’ll do it. Clinton Foundation cash has dried up and she needs to fund raise.
Actually, it would be interesting to see exactly how much money has come into the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative since November 8th. That alone will tell us what we all knew.
Her book is already being discounted by Amazon and Wal-Mart, even though it hasn’t been released yet. When it becomes apparent that advanced ticket sales for her upcoming tour are dismal, look for them to add some high profile entertainers to appear with Hillary to put people in the seats. Some stops on the tour may even be cancelled.
