The face of defeat: A weary-looking Hillary Clinton makes her first appearance since her concession, and admits that 'coming here wasn't the easiest thing for me' and she 'wanted to curl up and never leave the house again'
Hillary Clinton attended the Children's Defense Fund's gala in Washington, D.C on Wednesday evening It was the failed presidential candidate's first public appearance since she conceded to Donald Trump a week ago She considered cancelling her speech, saying she 'wanted to curl up with a book or our dogs and never leave the house again' Said she drew inspiration from the organization's founder and her mentor Marian Wright Edelman, who introduced her as the 'people's president' Clinton also talked about her mother, Dorothy, who died before her daughter became the Democratic nominee for president She tip-toed around her opponent as she delivered her address blocks away from his recently opened hotel and his new home Donald Trump did not come up, though she appeared to make reference to him when she speculated about the nation's 'uncertain future' A weary-looking Hillary Clinton said Wednesday evening at her first public appearance since she conceded to Donald Trump that she considered cancelling her speech to the children's advocacy group but kept the commitment out of respect for her mentor.
'I will admit coming here tonight wasn't the easiest thing for me,' she said at the Children's Defense Fund's gala in Washington, D.C.
The failed presidential candidate added: 'There have been a few times this past week when all I wanted to do is just to curl up with a good book or our dogs and never leave the house again.'
One said they're still on payroll through the end of this week.

Must be doing her own makeup now.
Purple was the color for royalty. Her Thighness stocked up in anticipation of her royal coronation.
On a bender!
Imagine working the past 15-20 years focused solely on getting elected President and doing it in a crooked corrupt way AND losing.
It could not have happened to a more deserving person.
She’s moving to a right to lose state.
she ‘wanted to curl up and never leave the house again’
someone must of waved some cash in the air and she got wind of it
Thanks for the info. Yes, Nixon came back in 1968 after his loss to JFK in 1960.
He’s the exception to the group I was thinking of, such as John Kerry, Al Gore, Dukakis, John McCain, George HW Bush, Jimmy Carter, Walter Mondale — who never ran for president again after their general election losses.
I needs me some mo botox. And fast.
.....”when all I wanted to do is just to curl up with a good book or our dogs”..........
Lying with dogs seems to be natural for her.
Grandma got run over by a Trump train ...
She is setting the stage for “you can’t send me to prison, I’m a very sick woman!”

Clint Eastwood (tweet): We will soon know the true extent of Hillary’s health problems when she uses them to avoid going to jail, classic Hillary.
“The People’s President”, that crap is only going to worse if the GOP doesn’t (don’t hold your breath) do anything to expose all the illegal/fraudulent votes. I’d bet in California alone there is enough to give Trump the popular. If they don’t the Dems will make sure the illegitimate tag will always be hanging in the air. But then maybe that is what many in the GOP want.
So ........ It took her a week to sober up.
Grandma Pickles looks rough.
The result of vodka and cornflakes diet.....
Yes, now that she has no political future she can be her REAL self...ugly beotch
Adlai Stevenson II. Twice thumped by IKE! 1952 and 1956. Tried a third time, defeated by John Kennedy for the Democratic nomination.
I wouldn't be so sure. There was a story on Drudge a couple days ago that the Clinton's are putting the screws to the New York democrat party and trying to "buy" Chelsea a House seat (the Chappaqua seat where the sitting Dem is expected to retire in 2018). I have a feeling that they just consider Hillary's loss a temporary setback and are lining up Chelsea for a run in 2024 (I figure 2020 is too soon as she would only have two years in the House and beating a sitting incumbent President is always a risky proposition).
She will disappear with her ill-gotten gains and succumb to Parkinsons disease, exacerbated by a dependence on alcohol.
Good riddance
