Valerie Jarrett, a senior White House adviser to former President Barack Obama, writes in her new book that she still hasn’t accepted President Trump won the 2016 election.

"Since the night Donald Trump became president of the United States, I’ve been going through the five stages of grief, sometimes all five in the same day,” Jarrett writes in Finding My Voice: My Journey to the West Wing and the Path Forward.

"In the beginning, denial and anger were high on the list; I still haven't embraced acceptance,” she writes.

Jarrett, a longtime adviser to Obama and his wife Michelle, said that Trump's unexpected victory against Hillary Clinton felt “like a punch to the stomach.”

“Obviously we were surprised by the outcome of the election. It kind of was like a, I’m not sure what the right analogy would be, but like a punch in the stomach, let’s say. Soul-crushing might be another description,” Jarrett said at the time. “But that’s the democracy that we have: The people get to decide and the elections matter and we have to get about the business of doing our job.”

Valerie Jarrett: “I still haven’t accepted Trump is president”....

No you just can’t accept your side lost!

[Rummyfan]

Good, because I went eight years (now eleven) without calling Obama “President”.

Libs... they just can't move on. Today I was driving behind a car with a Kerry / Edwards bumper sticker.

Hate speech. CNN demands it be shut down.

[Secret Agent Man]

Publicly. And allow vendors to sell thing to people to throw at her.

Hey Valerie, the best part of Trump being president is rewarding our friends and punishing our enemies.:)

[KevinB]

Reading that article made me feel all tingly inside. :-)

[robel]

Hasn’t seemed to have affected the President in the least.

Trying to sell a book are we ,LOL

Yeah, this seems to be a calculated message: "It's okay to still hate Trump... even I do!"

Their "resistance" must be sputtering.

[Vendome]

I understand.

Using the doll, show us where the election hurt you...

[Tell It Right]

It’s a new day. Nobody cares anymore what white people like Valarie Jarrett say anymore. :)

[hal ogen]

This traitor should be hanged and left for the birds to pick...after arrest, fair trial and conviction, of course.

[Vendome]

Good grammar?

LOL

Oh good, I didn’t think Zero was president for 8 years...

[Yaelle]

Hey ValJar, your boss was an illegitimate usurper.

I believe the correct word is your “subordinate”?

[Rastus]

Nothing in the Constitution mentions your acceptance being a requirement, bitch.

[Krosan]

Don’t
