Time magazine released a list of 2017's best non-fiction books Tuesday, and the winning author is the candidate who finished second in the presidential election.

Hillary Clinton's election memoir What Happened grabbed Time‘s No. 1 spot.

The blurb accompanying the book's position on the list reads, "Clinton offers one answer to the question that rang collectively from more than half the country on Nov. 9, 2016. The writing is frank, reflective and a piece of modern history."

Clinton tweeted that she was honored for her placement the list.

✔ Wow. I wasn’t sure how letting my guard down would go...but it’s been cathartic & rewarding. I loved writing this book, & I’m honored to be in such great company on this list!http://time.com/5029600/top-10-non-fiction-books-2017/ … 5:51 PM - Nov 21, 2017

Non-Fiction? Are you kidding me?

A combination of delusional ranting and outright lies is called non-fiction?

Sorry, it’s the NY Slimes, purveyor of fiction, delusional ranting, and outright lies.

Oops! Time magazine. Publisher that issued the open statement that "Gun control is too important to present truthfully, so no balanced opinions will be presented.

Even worse than NT Slimes.

Don’t be so tough on Time. They might be trying to send us a signal: the ghost-writer’s name was Frank.

“> The writing is frank <”

It says the writing is “frank, reflective and a piece of modern history.”

They knew better than to say “accurate”.

Should have been titled: “What the Hell Just happened?”

Four points:

Time magazine. It's a failing, liberal Left periodical.

Hillary didn't write this book. Another lie. Her underlings did.

Hillary did not provide the "one answer" that half the country was looking to be answered... that SHE lost because of HER.

Nobody cares what a loser magazine like Time, does to promote a two-time loser presidential candidate.

I remember my dad back in the 6o’s saying you can only believe half of what you read in the newspaper and only half of that is true.

TIME Magazine is destroying what little reputation they still have. Won’t miss them, either, in the future.
