Hillary Clinton blames misogyny, FBI, sexism, NRA, Russia for 2016 loss

by Pete Kasperowicz

Hillary Clinton on Tuesday recited a list of several factors that contributed to her 2016 loss against Donald Trump, and said America is in a "really bad spot" with President Trump in the White House.

"[E]very day that goes by there’s more evidence and more proof of Russia and fake news and Cambridge Analytica and misogyny and sexism," she said, according to Newsweek. "I mean it’s hard, it’s very hard."

She said the "lock her up" chants that Trump led during the election and other protests around her were signs of misogyny.

"Some of you probably remember when Kathy Griffin held up the head of Trump," she said. "What you may not remember is they were selling Trump holding up my head at the Republican convention and nobody said a word."

Clinton also repeated her claim that she would have won her race against Trump if former FBI Director James Comey hadn't said publicly that he had reopened his investigation into her use of a private email server.

"But for the letter he wrote on October 28th I would have won," she said.

She also blamed Russia for trying to influence the election.

"You had the Russians stealing the DNC emails and then stealing emails from my campaign," she said. "And on October 7th the CIA director said for the first time that the Russians were interfering in our election."

Here’s my tally. Each of the following came from Hillary, from one of her drones, or from a pro-Hillary article. And, yes, the list is still growing; I didn’t have the NRA on the list until today. I am not creative enough to have made these up:

There are many terrible reasons for President Trump’s victory, but there are two things that were not a factor. First, Hillary was the perfect candidate; nothing she did harmed her candidacy in any way. Second, President Trump was the worst candidate imaginable; nothing he did helped his candidacy at all, except with racists, sexists, bigots, and the rest of the basket of deplorables.

Sympathy maybe not but the hell of being married to that woman is unimaginable.

Everybody but her. Not surprising.

But we need to keep her in the limelight to remind America what the Democrats are like (narcissistic, sociopathic, etc.) She is the Democratic party!

Nothing about her physical or mental health driving voters away? How about her drinking and diet of meds? How about Trump had more of what it takes to win?

Consider the rejection she’s had in her life. Bill over their marriage; the country in 2008 over Obama; the country again in 2016.
