Hillary Clinton is striking back at critics telling her to “shut up” following her 2016 loss, saying, “They never said that to any man who was not elected.”
“I was really struck by how people said that to me — you know, mostly people in the press, for whatever reason — mostly, ‘Go away, go away,’” Clinton said Thursday during an event at Rutgers University.
“And I had one of the young people who works for me go back and do a bit of research. They never said that to any man who was not elected. I was kind of struck by that,” Clinton said.
Clinton’s remarks came in response to a question from Eagleton Institute of Politics’ director Ruth Mandel about the former Democratic presidential nominee’s reaction to those who say she should “get off the public stage and shut up.”
“I’m really glad that, you know, Al Gore didn’t stop talking about climate change,” Clinton said to applause.
“And I’m really glad John Kerry went to the Senate and became an excellent secretary of State,” the former first lady continued. “And I’m really glad John McCain kept speaking out and standing up and saying what he had to say. And for heavens sakes, Mitt Romney is running for the Senate,” Clinton said.
The 70-year-old ex-secretary of State has taken heat in recent weeks, even among some Democrats, for comments she made about Americans who voted for President Trump in the 2016 race.
"I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward,” Clinton said earlier this month during a conference in India. “And his whole campaign, ‘Make America Great Again,’ was looking backwards.”
“I think it was a moment in time because what had been expected to happen in the election, which obviously did not,” Clinton said Thursday. “And then a lot of angst and second guessing and finger pointing and everything that went on.”
Hey Jeb, shut up.
Hey Juan, shut up.
Hey Mitt, shut up.
Hey Crooked, shut up.
But Hillary, you are a man.
Of the most loathsome kind.
So, why not come out?
The Left is very well aware that what she continues to say and do is a constant reminder to voters of just how corrupt and dishonest the Democrat/Socialist Party has become.
Yes, we did. Albore.
They never had to - the losers usually left with some dignity (Al Gore being the main exception). They also made concession speeches too.
Talk about psy-ops!
This old girl has her own algorithms going and wants points for her word salads, heavily peppered with myth making, and then tossed. Serves no one.
“She knows that her legacy is going to be that of a skid-mark on the underwear of American history.”
HAR!! That there is funny!
The graft won’t keep rolling in all by itself!
““I’m really glad that, you know, Al Gore didn’t stop talking about climate change,”
Hey Hillary, “you knowP”, STFU!
I’d be interested in seeing just how her “researcher’s” data query was phrased.
The diff being they were men and her thighness is the beast.
She must have been drunk during the entire “Sore-Loserman” era.
Actually, it was Hillary who 'excepted' her loss. The men have 'accepted' it.
Excellent! I was getting ready to post my smart remark, but your comment is better than mine.
Nor do I remember any losing man going on a whining tour!
... then you haven’t been paying attention, Hillary. Plus many former candidates have the grace to just retire.
Whenever I get pissed at Trump (not very often) I think of what might have been, and suddenly I’m not pissed anymore.
We dodged the bullet on her.
