Hillary blames misogyny, Putin, and Comey for loss

[Morphine Prince 109,683]

“In this election, there was a very real struggle between what is viewed as change that is welcome and exciting to so many Americans and change that is worrisome and threatening to so many others," she said. "You layer on the first woman president over that, and I think that some people — women included — had some problems.”

Clinton also spoke with Kristof about Russia's suspected attempts to interfere with the election and James Comey's announcement 11 days before the election that the FBI would reopen its investigation into her use of a private email server during her time as Secretary of State. Clinton said, as she has in the past, that Comey's decision and Wiki Leaks had a “determinative” affect on her loss. 

The former Senator said that she now plans to encourage young women to seek political office. But she says that she wants those women to be aware that they’ll inevitably have to endure sexism and bullying , and advised developing a thick skin.

Can anyone really disagree with this? Note she said it played a role. Misogyny exists. She is a woman. It mattered.

She forgot to mention bad campaigning in states she lost to Bernie, like Michigan.

Comey's letter that he wrote basically destroyed her in the polls.

And the last time she visited Wisconsin (a battleground State she lost) was 7 months prior to the election. So I blame her team. I blame the confidence that they had.

She is not wrong

They were way overconfident. I mean, they tried to get Mika Brezinski off MSNBC, because she said the campaign was being arrogant. Looks like she wasn't right.

I think another thing that certainly played a part is people morals. they couldn't honestly choose the lesser of two evils because they were both evil.

Because of some idiots' moral high ground, we're in this mess.

It seems she also forgot to mention Bernie himself, who - aided by his chief campaign strategist Tad Devine (who worked for Putin's interests together with Paul Manafort in Ukraine) - participated in the Russian attacks against our election and actively drove a fatal wedge within the left.

Why does she keep slaying me? Not per se the misogyny party, but overall. She's really intelligent and fit to be president and this video proves it to me

I thought comey meant communists and I was ready to go in on her lol. Misogyny did play a role tho, she's right.

[ItsTommyBitch 12,640]

She's right.

She could've campaigned a little bit more in a few states, but honestly, I can't say that I truly believe that would've helped when there were so many forces stacked against her. Her going there and claiming she would do what she always said she would do may have reassured some, but the negative press was attacking from all fronts and we now know that it was coordinated against her in certain states, so... Yes, Misogyny, Putin (and Trump's lies), and Comey are responsible for her loss
