In an interview with WNYC, the former secretary of State reflected on being the first female presidential nominee of a major political party. She said that because of the hurdles women face, she would have been hailed as brilliant if she won.
"I thought it was pretty revolutionary that I was the first woman to have a realistic chance of becoming president, Clinton said. So I dont know how any woman who is not familiar to people, since we have so many hurdles to overcome, could have even been in that position that I found myself.
So if I had won, you know, I would have been seen as a genius; my campaign would have been seen as perfect, she added. I understand all of that.
Clinton, who led Donald Trump in the polls for months ahead of the November election, eventually lost the electoral vote to the Republican nominee, but won the popular vote by nearly 3 million ballots.
Clinton's comments drew a sarcastic response from former Trump White House press secretary Sean Spicer.
"And 'if' I won the lottery I'd be rich," Spicer wrote on Twitter.
Oh Hillary Deary, you can consider yourself a genius if you wish, but you still LOST, and will STILL NOT EVER BE PRESIDENT.
She thinks she would have been seen as a genius for winning an election the MSM was trying to hand to her. Gee, and McCain is conservative because he says he is.
Miss Pickles is sour.
Don't forget spontaneous. Shows how importantly busy she is, barely has time for a carefully staged spontaneous photograph.
Nope. She would have been seen as the lying fascist she is.
Not only that, you would have been seen as a winner if you had won.
Funny how that works, isn’t it? Don’t let anybody tell you this woman isn’t Mensa caliber.
If you had gotten away clean, you mighta, woulda, coulda...
You try to talk your way out of jail for overreaching, lying, cheating, stealing, not so much...
Nearly 3 million ballots in counties nationwide with more ballots cast than qualified voters...
If you had gotten away clean, you mighta, woulda, coulda...
You try to talk your way out of jail for overreaching, not so much...
I just spoke to my wife about this, her response was; well I guess because PRESIDENT TRUMP WON that makes him a GENIUS, and that must make Hillary an IDIOT.
I would just add; a lying, scheming, traitorous, murdering, IDIOT.
The left crowned her a genius back in 1993 before she had done anything.
Much like the Nobel Prize Obama won for pretending to be an American.
You mean the DEAD and ILLEGAL ALIENS.
Donald Trump won the Election. Why isn’t the fawning Press labeling him a Genius who ran a perfect Campaign?
Oh that’s right, he is a Republican while the same fawning Press was in Collusion with Hillary’s campaign.
She has proven that she is delusional, and she needs to be incarcerated.
Only if you won in a landslide, you dumb t**t.
