Hillary Clinton Blames Nigel Farage, Macedonian Fake News Factories, for Losing Election
breitbart ^ | VICTORIA FRIEDMAN

Posted on 10/15/2017 7:32:22 AM PDT by davikkm

Continuing her British leg of the What Happened book tour, failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton reiterated her favoured tropes of anti-Brexitism, Russian hackers, and ‘fake news’ to the BBC’s Andrew Marr, and deflected questions about her friendship with alleged rapist Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein, her husband’s own alleged sexual predations, and whether her status as part of an elite lead to her election loss, blaming instead a conspiracy of Russian hackers and ‘possibly’ the Trump campaign. Reading from her 512-page post mortem where she explains how she lost the 2016 U.S. presidential election, Marr quoted an excerpt where Clinton observed that voters “just didn’t like me” – but rather than reflectively acknowledging the loss was her responsibility, almost immediately she blamed “a concerted and effective campaign to tear me down”.

Descending into the Democrat’s favoured and familiar conspiracy theories, she claimed campaign staffer John Podesta’s emails were hacked by Russian intelligence, exposed by WikiLeaks, which she called a “mouthpiece for Russian authoritarianism”, and were “weaponised” and turned into “phony news stories” at fake news factories in Macedonia (a small, former Yugoslav nation of a population of less than one-quarter of London’s).

Claiming that “the Russians wanted to help Trump and hurt me”, she alleged Russian President Vladimir Putin had a “personal grudge” against her.

“The more she speaks, the more people talk about her. It’s what she wants. Just like this thread.”

Nailed it!

“There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.”

I hope Hillary keeps talking. She gives a great “who stole the strawberries” speech.

How so the Russians knew she is weak and would give them anything they wanted the left has NO logic what so ever just whining because they didn’t do a good job of rigging the election this time.

Keep talking, you bitter paranoid delusional b*tch!

You keep confirming in your own words everything we’ve suspected all along about you. You’ve put your hateful, incompetent and narcissistic mind on full display to the public. It’s hilarious.

Shrillary has found more targets to blame for her loss to Trump than the Christmas gift list of a pair of active Mormon grandparents with 9 kids & 35 grandkids.

Of all the excuses she gives for her loss, the most ludicrous is that
Hillary lost her "sure-thing election" because "Putin doesn't like me."

===============================================

Hillary once bragged that she, alone, was brought into Putin's inner sanctum
where she assured Putin she was worried about wildlife like he was.

Dam...Putim musta outright lied when he told Hilary they were BFF.

================================================

Hillary said she and Bill thought they had it sewed up but she now "regrets" the Obama/ Clinton's kindly efforts to bring frivolity to the normally staid Russians.

Ex-Pres Clinton is s-o-o-o-o friendly he traveled to Russia to clinch the uranium giveaway deal. And to got a 500,000 dollar speaking fee from a Moscow bank plus pocketing a sizeable commission.

Billybooboo even used his friendly hokey hillbilly act on Putin.

Secy Hillary thought she and Obama had brought much frivolity
to Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov w/ the friendly reset button.

Bagster, totally there with you.

I had a web page attacking the Clintons before many Freepers were born!

I always thought that the fake news factories were in Moldova, not Macedonia, and the the Russians funded them to hurt the West overall.

Looks like she is still getting most of her news from podcasts and International CNN.

“Hillary Clinton is a forgettable looser.”

Still... there are many who truly believe she plans to run in 2020.

Maybe that spongiform Mad Cow Disease in her brain will work some miracle — if you get my drift — long before that. We can only hope. The down-side to that would be, in the event of PIAPS’ demise, Chelsea will be waiting in the wings to step in. They have 2+ years to groom her seriously.

It's going to take a lot more than 2+ years to groom Chelsea--like eternity.

It would be funny to watch the Leftist losers try to launch Hillary again, but I don't think even they are that stupid. A lead blimp comes to mind.

She just won’t shut up.

Well, look at it this way.

Hillary is the de facto face of the Democrat left, and has become a walking, talking billboard for their collective anger, delusions, hypocrisy, and mental illness.

She's baring the sickened, putrid soul of the American left to the whole wide world, revealing their bankrupt hearts and minds to all who care to look.

All in all, Hillary's insanity tour may be a good thing.

I can not remember Walter Mondale continuing to make headlines with silly diatribes the way she does after he lost in ‘84 to Reagan.

Gore vs Bush 2000 is a better comparison. That race was very similar to 2016, given that we'd just come to the end of a two term Democrat administration.

Al Gore went on to make a lot of noise after losing that race, but he didn't go on an all-out insanity tour, the way Hillary is doing.

She's embarrassing her whole party.

This is getting hilarious. Is Hillary working her way through the phone books of the world?

The shortest book in the world: Who Doesn’t Hillary Blame for Losing the Election.

Actually, the title would be longer than the book.

Exactly what I was thinking — and you put it quite succinctly.
