"Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton reflected on her 2016 presidential campaign, saying that female voters deserted her in the campaign's last days because she was "not perfect."

No, it can't be that she ran a bad campaign, its that women were sexist against her

I mean there are plenty of people to blame for her losing. Hillary is among them.

Shes really embarrassing

I'd also blame the 70 million people who voted for a transparently corrupt gameshow host and social media influencer.

Didnt she literally say nukes were an option? I cant even remember what conflict it was in regards toSyria maybe?

She's just completely incapable of self reflection.

She should just go away

To be fair, she doesn't show up in mirrors.

Be fair. He validated their hatred, cowardice and bigotry in a way no Democrat ever could.

more liek Pokemon Go go away

She's not entirely wrong, only in that... No matter how bad of a candidate she was, the fact a majority of white women voted for Trump, even after "grab 'em by the p****," is insane. You can say it was because she was a bad candidate, and she was, but... C'mon.

I just remember her slogan "Love Trumps Hate". Who came up with that lmao

Oh, it's her again... welp, that's enough of that for me.

Can't wait to forget her once more after she returns from the depths of obscurity to cry over the same damn note... again... again... again.

Granted, my view is biased, since I was living in eastern Kentucky at the time, where women literally, openly, said "I'll never vote for a woman president, no matter what."

This is actually just US nuclear policy. Like if the press asks the president if nukes are an option in response to some event, they will always say that they do not rule out any type of force usage, even if the US is obviously not going to do it.

I mean isn't she blaming herself for not being perfect.

I am so close to getting back on Twitter just to bring this up to all those Anti-Sanders people that were still blaming him. And be like now she blames you . HA.

Sorry if I missed the sarcasm here but if that is real question not in the slightest .

Hillary should've dropped out in 2015.

The Clintons pushed to get Trump as the Republican on the ticket. So all the shit that is happening is their fault and they just get a free pass.

First mistake was keeping her husbands name after being cheated on she should have gone her own route. Then the Pokemon Go to the polls was the final nail in the coffin.

She's the epitome and result of the most DNC brained Democrats. They think they can just serve up whatever slop they want and we'll have no choice but to go along because of how insane Republicans have gotten. There's no attempt to appeal, no attempt to persuade, no attempt to solve anyone's problems or validate their feelings. Just "come get your slop and if you don't fascism is YOUR fault!"

i feel kind of conflicted because she did lose in part to factors out of her control and just plain ol' misogyny but she's also a deeply unlikable person and her campaign was run terribly so i dunno

remember when she didnt campaign in wisconsin at all

Hillary Clinton was not the best candidate, that is true. She barely lost to Trump, because enough people figured he was worth taking a chance on. One awful presidency, insurrection, 2 impeachments, 800 lawsuits and court cases later, yeah, totally worth it.

I remember when Jim Comey reopened an investigation on a Friday going into an election, let Trump destroy her in the media all weekend, then quietly closed it on Tuesday because it was all predictably duplicates of what they already had.

She expected women voters to support her because she was a woman, and had no reservations letting that viewpoint be known. I know some women who were furious about that attitude, especially when she had famous womens rights activists basically enforcing the sentiment. Every politician should have to earn a vote, not get it by default of identity.

That isnt to say Trump was a better option at all, its just acknowledging a flaw in her campaign. That election was the beginning of the end, and its all been downhill since.

This is kind of hilarious in a way, it's like a culmination of Hillary Clinton's trajectory post-2016. She's eventually settled on "actually all women failed me".

Also like 96% of black women voted for her. Guess she forgot about them.

well she's right

Thats incredibly high considering #BLM called out her hypocrisy, the Which Hillary? thing.

Which is deeply fucking weird, right? Howard Dean's scream ended his campaign, too.

And... "rapists and thieves, they're not sending their best" or any single thing Trump said has sunk his campaign, election, presidency... anything.

Darkest timeline.

Do you not remember 2016? Ill point out that Trump during his current trial it has been testified to how he was using bullshit to ape the election coverage whenever anyone but himself was getting airtime.

His Republican opponents noticed it, Hillary noticed it, wtf man.

She stole the shit from Bernie so she deserved it

Comey is a Republican, one should expect Republicans to do Republican things. It can't be "his fault" that she lost when that's what he wanted to happen. >_>

There is nothing the mainstream media enjoys more than tanking Democrats for frivolous shit and giving Republicans passes on their really awful characters and policies.

Pokemon Go to the polls was dumb but it didnt do anythjng. Comey dicking around with that case absolutely killed it.

Her campaign imploded.

The funny thing about the e-mails is that when they came out, Hillary basically owned up to it. She didn't hide from them, and basically said if there is anything in them of importance the people should know.

There was...nothing? in them. Like, they had a huge effect but overall it was kind of nothing she completely owned making it kind of silly.

Problem is 30k+ emails were deleted beforehand, so technically it's not known if anything odd was in them or not.

It's odd how people expect women to stick together solely based on gender. They assume only men are against abortion, as no woman would be pro-life. They assume the female Ghostbusters was just hated by sexist men. These are all horribly incorrect.

I know so many women that always hated Hillary and posted anti-Hillary jokes and memes on a regular basis. They didn't care if she had ovaries. I know so many women that are passionately Republican and firmly pro-life. I know just as many women as men that hated female Ghostbusters.

I know so many women that hate Karens. I know so many women that make cracks about how bad women drive. I know women that prefer male friends because they can't stand women's drama.

Having a vagina isn't enough to have support of women.
