Hillary Clinton has granted her first public interview since losing the election. It came on April 6 at the Women in the World Summit, organized by leftist editor Tina Brown. Clinton was introduced by comedian Samantha Bee. On cue, as expected, she gushed: "You deserve to hear it 100 times -- it should have been you."
The assignment to interview Clinton fell to New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof. He later wrote a column on his Hillary chat, beginning by saying: "In the most wrenching, humiliating way possible, Hillary Clinton has been liberated. She is now out of the woods again, and speaking her mind."
And why not? The path is marked by rose petals dutifully placed by her equally humiliated legions in the press.
It was "humiliating" to lose to Donald Trump -- that lout. Clinton was the anointed one, and as the press told us, she was the most qualified presidential applicant since Thomas Jefferson. So the feminists at this conference wanted to know: Why do Americans hate women so deeply? What the hell is wrong with those self-hating white Republican women?
This was the kind of challenging "question" Kristof lobbed at Clinton: "This is a women's empowerment conference, so I have to ask. You know, fundamentally, a man who bragged about sexual assault won the election and won 53 percent of the white women's vote. How is it that in the 21st century -- and what does it say about the challenges that one faces in women's empowerment -- that in effect, misogyny won with a lot of women voters?"
Clinton loved the question. It's the kind of softball she's been served her entire career. "Certainly, misogyny played a role," she declared. "I mean, that just has to be admitted." She and Kristof mulled over what he called "abundant social science research" that says we admire men for being ambitious and successful but find women "less likable" when they are powerful.
So here we are, five months after the election, and the best analysis these people can muster sounds exactly like ... the last weekend of the campaign. Then-President Barack Obama used this argument as his closer: Don't be a sexist! He said: "I want you to think about it because she is so much better qualified than the other guy. She has conducted herself so much better in public life than the other guy."
Clinton complained that when she left the State Department, her approval rating was 64 or 65 percent, but "by the time they finished with me, I was Typhoid Mary." "They" meant Trump and the conservative media. Never would this woman ever concede that the more the public saw and heard her, the less it liked her. In an added note of self-pity, she added: "Poor Mary. She didn't deserve it either."
The woman who might have been our commander in chief standing up to Russia, Iran, North Korea and the Islamic State group complained about being called names, drawing fervent applause. She explained that the aim of anti-Clinton bullying was "to crush your spirit, to make you feel inadequate, to make you doubt yourself. And I just refused to do that, and that infuriated them even more."
Nowhere in this dialogue, and nowhere in the Kristof column that followed, did they even briefly entertain the notion that misogyny could define the Clintons. She can complain about Trump's "targeting of women" but can't imagine that anyone could say the same for her husband. Let us not forget that Kristof and his newspaper thought Juanita Broaddrick's absolutely believable accusation of Bill Clinton raping her was "toxic waste."
Hillary Clinton never allows an interviewer who would ask her about her role leading the Bimbo-Bashing Patrol to destroy the reputations of her husband's victims. No one is allowed to ask whether Broaddrick was lying when she said that after the alleged assault, Hillary Clinton gripped her hand firmly and thanked her for her support, and suggested that she stay quiet.
They certainly refuse to contemplate that women could vote for Trump because Clinton stood passionately on the libertine left, supporting abortion on demand, every LGBT dictate and the erosion of religious liberty. It is reported that half of the aborted babies are girls. Couldn't that be "misogyny"?
If only someone at these media-elite confabs would ask how a majority of women can be smeared as hating themselves if they don't check every radical-feminist box.
Hillary Blames Self-Hating Women for Her Loss>>>>>>>>>>>>
As usual Hillolita is barking up the wrong tree.
This is the result because of pu44y whipping politics. Women disagree with using pu$$y as a part of political meme. It is unacceptable in civil society. Thats not “Women who hate themselves.”
America’s women have decided that any and all evidence of inappropriate sexual conduct belongs in a court of law or a private administrative hearing, not on the political stump.
Score:
Civil Society = 10
Vagina Monologues = 0 ( zero, nada, bumpkiss)
Yet the pussy whipping lefties want to double down.
Give it! As lonbg as they give it, America’s women will not be voting for them. Thats fine with over half of the citizens of the United States of America.
Hillary, the gift that keeps on ensuruing an 8 year Presidential term for President Trump.
WOOT!
Any mirrors Available?
Hey Hillary, I thought you said RUSSIA rigged the election.
Yes...the SANE American voters.
My wife will ask, "what is wrong with liberals?" and I always reply "it is a mental disorder..."
But seriously if you look at liberals with the understanding that they do not reason, they are not capable of analytical thought. All decisions, reactions, and comments come from feelings. This explains the different excuses each time she speaks because her feelings change.
Anyway, it's fun to watch... ;) Thanx Candor!
Hillry is beginning to look like Lot's wife ... fading into an old salt block... after living like a modern day Jezebel.... where are the dogs?
The only thing left for her to blame is the kitchen sink. Sheesh.
she could have stopped at the word “self” and saved the effort of speaking another word.
Now I know how a liberal feels.......
B/c when Hillary lost “I felt so good about myself.”
ROTFLOL
Hillary is putting together her own anti-Hillary Ads in case she ever runs again ,LOL
And now, just yesterday in fact, the win we just had to fill a seat, he, he, he, and the New and Improved DNC chairman was in mommy's basement cussing up a storm: THEY LOST AGAIN!!!
Thank you Liz, and GO.PRESIDENT TRUMP.GO!!! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
The thing they never confront it is that it is THEY who insist that women are strong, intelligent, able to take care of themselves, able to think for themselves and able to make competent decisions that affect their lives .... except at the ballot box.
At their core THEY are the misogynists. They fundamentally do not believe women are strong, able to take care of themselves, able to think for themselves and able to make competent decisions that affect their lives. They fundamentally believe that vast numbers of women are weak minded and don’t know what is best for themselves and their families.
One or the other is true. They cannot have it both ways.
incompetent + worthless + criminal + liar + corrupt + unlikable = loser
“We don’t hate ourselves Hillary!... We hate you.”
Considering the mindset of Progressives and their ideological ancestors, re-education camps for all you “self-hating” women may not be outside of the realm of possibility when they have power again.
(They’re such obnoxious beings.)
IMHO
Face it: we just don’t like you.
Exactly. I am getting confused, though. A couple of days ago it was "mysoginists" that kept her from being President. Now, it is "self-loathing women" who were the problem.
We have no problem with women generally; it is this particular woman that no one likes. You were exactly right in that insight.
No. It’s because you’re a vile ugly-a$$ carpet muncher who remains married to a rapist and womanizer and knocks around with a hot little iranian b!tch named Huma.
