Hillary Clinton calls 2016 the first 'reality TV campaign' (she lost because she was too honest)
Washington Times ^ | November 22, 2017 | Sally Persons

Posted on 11/22/2017 6:25:36 AM PST by Zakeet

Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton said the 2016 campaign was the first "reality TV campaign," bringing its own unique set of challenges.

"My opponent was the first reality TV candidate, and I was, for better or worse, the candidate of reality," Mrs. Clinton said in an interview that aired Wednesday on "The Hugh Hewitt Show."

She said that running after a two-term president of the same party also brought its challenges in the campaign, adding it was hard to argue she was an agent of change when she supported much of former President Barack Obama's agenda.

"If you are both the candidate defending a lot of the areas of agreement, but also putting forth an agenda for change, which is what I tried to do, it is often difficult to get the second part of that message through," Mrs. Clinton explained.

Hey if the election was that close, those Arkansides, botched robberies, and plane crash victims could have pushed her over the finish line. Shaudenfraude.

What is this, reason number 73?

Actually, more like reason number 62,980,160.

It’s VERY fortunate that Hillary is so distracted by non-reasons for her loss that she is not seeing the critical role played by the BAVARIAN ILLUMINATI. We People of the Light go to great pains to mask our involvement in such worthy endeavors.

She poll tests explanations of her inadequacy each week and runs with it. Her mouth is like a bump stock.

What’s even funnier is if you allow her the premise that President Trump is a reality tv actor.

“And you still lost to him.”

Yep, and she would have won. No way would Jeb! have beaten her. It really ticks me off how much crap Trump gets because he LITERALLY saved the country. Like my tagline says:

Just in time for Christmas, the “Chatty Hillary” doll. She pulls the plastic ring on her back by herself and repeats: “It was my turn, It was my turn, It was my turn ... “.
Opens little jars of pickles. Falls down but can be propped up. Shop worn. Smells fusty, musty, like cooked cabbage and urine. $1.99 or best offer.

This is a prelude to a “incompetent to stand trial” defense...

Let me dream.

I lost because I told the truth too much...

What have you done with Hillary, 50% of the Clinton Co-Presidency and nearly 100% of the congenital lying team occupying the White House in the 90’s.

Voters did not recognize truthful Hillary. Really, Hillary, really?

Reality bites... Especially when your reality is being in a loveless relationship with a confirmed predatorial pervert, you are responsible for the death of an ambassador /consulate, you have been bought and sold to the Russians and your ‘foundation’ is basically a criminal laundering enterprise.... Yup. Reality! It can be a real bummer.

Yeah, I can imagine she thought she would sound SO clever spouting that line someone wrote for her.

This woman should give some psychologist a lifetime of study in denial. She has really lost whatever sanity she may have had.

At the risk of sounding cliche, “it’s worse than that!”

After all the controversy surrounding Donna Brazile’s book “Hacks,” I was sorely tempted to purchase it, but just reading the preface convinced me the kind of delusion you describe is systemic amongst liberals. They seem to have the unfortunate ability to truly forget their excuses, distortions, and outright lies are so much bullshit devised by themselves for the purpose of saving face, avoiding legal consequences, and/or justifying unjustifiable actions.

In short, they are quintessential practitioners of Orwell’s proverbial “DoubleThink.”
