Give Hillary Clinton some credit. The failed former presidential candidate may not have charisma, good speaking skills, likability, a record of actual accomplishments or the ability to stop telling completely unnecessary lies, but she does have an endless capacity to hold grudges.
After burning through every possible book publishing grift (including a thriller in which a fictionalized version of herself copes with being Secretary of State), she’s back with yet another book that no one wants.
And more scores to settle. Especially with the women who didn’t vote for her.
Mrs. Clinton’s comments came in an interview conducted in late February for a forthcoming book, “The Fall of Roe: The Rise of a New America.”
It’s gotta be better than Grandma’s Garden and the Book of Gutsy Women which you can find at worse 99-cent stores in Toledo, Ohio (and nowhere else.)
But Hillary’s point is really that women are to blame because they didn’t vote for her.
Mrs. Clinton said she saw her defeat in that election as inextricable from her gender. As she has in the past, she blamed the former F.B.I. director James Comey’s last-minute reopening of the investigation of her private email server for her immediate defeat. Mr. Comey had raised questions about her judgment and called her “extremely careless” but recommended no criminal charges. Other political strategists have faulted her message, strategy and various missteps by her campaign for her loss in 2016.
“But once he did that to me, the people, the voters who left me, were women,” she said. “They left me because they just couldn’t take a risk on me, because as a woman, I’m supposed to be perfect. They were willing to take a risk on Trump — who had a long list of, let’s call them flaws, to illustrate his imperfection — because he was a man, and they could envision a man as president and commander in chief.”
This is delusional.
Hillary Clinton was unpopular, undesired and corrupt. Rather than taking credit for seizing control of the nomination using a political machine (not any kind of genuine popularity) and blowing the election, she’s blaming women for not supporting her, as if she was entitled to the support of women because of her gender.
Back when Bill was sexually assaulting women, Hillary didn’t feel any need to stand with them. But she always relies on this sense of feminist entitlement that women have to rally for her.
And all of this is especially insane because women did vote for Hillary.
Women were 13 percentage points more likely than men to have voted for Clinton (54% among women, 41% among men). The gender gap was particularly large among validated voters younger than 50. In this group, 63% of women said they voted for Clinton, compared with just 43% of men.
Hillary Clinton has issues. She’s repeatedly blamed sexism for losing the election and now she’s blaming women. Has she ever considered blaming herself?

Collective insanity. I remember my Mom was having a meeting with about a dozen of her spiritualist lady friends and the topic of the candidacy of Barack Obama came up (must have been in 2008 or so). The good ladies all practically swooned. That’s when I realized we were in trouble.
Mom had a dream that Hillary would become President. It never happened of course, and now it is too late. One of the wonderful ladies had a heart attack and died during the 2016 election night when she found out Trump was winning. Wonderful ladies but a persistent delusional worldview. Abortion rights is one factor, some of them are fanatical about that, murderous even, to the point where one dare not bring up the topic.
When I was visiting one Christmas they were opening presents, one was Michelle Obama’s book. I had to look away, the rest all swooned.
Kynarion Hellenis says
You call these women “good” and “wonderful.” Baffling!
This article and your observations about your mother and her friends reveal the truth that women do not belong in political leadership, and a nation is cursed when God gives women and children to rule it. Isaiah 3: 12 – 15.
Chaya says
I understand that you love your mom and so can see her friends in a positive light.
I work with leftists and have for years. I see some good sides to them. But it all disappears in an instant if they think you voted against their god. I can tell you many anecdotes of their snake like viciousness.
I have seen a ring of teachers cackling and praying for the painful death of a candidate’s children while the candidate watches and suffers. I once impulsively corrected one coworker (with whom I used to have lunch) on which politician went to Epstein’s Island numerous times (It was Clinton not Trump). She walked backwards away from me, mouth agape, and never spoke a word to me again.
No, not wonderful. Not really.

I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,”
“He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it—Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”
– Trump talking about Epstein
Amy says
you know it was Trump who helped take him down in West Palm Beach? Prosecuting attorney Bradley Edwards . BTW A federal judge, nearly 11 years after Edwards filed a suit, finally ruled that Acosta and his fellow prosecutors broke the law by giving Epstein immunity without informing the victims of it. You know it was Trumps DOJ with the help of Sessions that locked him up. same with Maxwell. question is where are the others that played on his Island. time almost up for them

Thanks to you, Chaya, and to Algorithmic Analyst for sharing these stories. We have all been there, unfortunately, and will continue to experience these things for the foreseeable future. A compilation of these anecdotes might make for an interesting book, not unlike the memories of life in East Germany that were collected by the Australian journalist Anna Funder in her book “Stasiland,” which is a great read.

Liberals destroyed their most important personal relationships simply because they were absolutely certain they were right.
Mo de Profit says
When did you ever hear a politician admit that they were wrong?
mj says
I will forever remember Hillary as the woman who kissed Suha Arafat.
Beez says
No doubt she liked it.
RS says
Man, She is actually sadly lacking in any principles that represent good, honest, caring, and responsible women. No woman who loves their family and wants them to have a productive secure future would vote for Hillary. It does not take a village, it takes values and principles to live by, character, and honesty.
Buddy the Cat Meow says
So what ever happened to those 33,000 missing emails? Any guesses?
Chaya says
Like with a cloth?

Horrible Hillary will harbor her hate long after she’s arrived in Hades,
Domenic Pepe says
I know most people are not psychiatrists.
But one does not need to be a psychiatrist to recognize that Hillary and Bill and Obama and Biden and Pelosi and
Schumer, etc.etc.etc., are depraved psychopathic berserk delusional and obsessed with
power money and control of others.
That so many Americans have fallen under the spell of these truly evil ideologues is incomprehensible.
But it is a fact that may be the precursor and evidence of America’s demise.
I wish I could discover and understand the original source of this leftist democrat hatred for “deplorable” working and middle class American citizens that Hillary and Obama and Biden and their ilk espouse and demonstrate every chance they get.
There is something terrible wrong with their mind and thinking, and their powers of simple observation.

What can you say about Hellary Klingon? As standup comedian was waxing on about that. She did not care about Hellary’s looks or rumored lesbian trysts, not that being gay or bi or ugly would matter if you’re the best gosh darn person for the job, it is what is inside and the history of Hellary Klingon is what’s lethal to others and lying and crooked as her husband and the string of politicians who defended her and are compromised herself. I hope and pray when President Trump is elected for the 3rd time, the 10 Commandments return to being posted over every chalk board in every class room and court houses.
junkyard infidel says
of course hilLIARy knows that women suck because bj bubba jeff has a list of all the “bj’s” he recieved.
Chris Shugart says
The late comedian Norm Macdonald had a theory, and it’s a pretty good one.
“They hated Hillary so much that they voted for someone they hated more, just to piss her off.”
Fred says
When I read your first paragraph, Daniel, I thought “what more can he say after that? That’s a perfect summary of that evil woman — there’s nothing more for him to write about!’ I was wrong. What a great column. Right on, about the woman, about her evil nature, and about all the wrong things she has done in her despicable life. Why must the American public have anything to do with this harridan any longer? When will she just go away? Enough already! God preserve America and protect her from Hillary!
Lance says
From an April DAILY EDITION story: “Bannon believes female college graduates won’t change their minds about Trump.”
Which brought to mind a story that appeared broadly across the news a few years ago: 70% of divorces are initiated by wives. As a man hoping to keep cynicism at bay, I double-checked on the internet hoping to find that statistic was actually false.
But not only are 70% of divorces indeed initiated by wives, when the wives are college educated the number rises to 90%.
Is there a connection?
notebeat says
The only consolation to horrible people like this is the ‘Judas’ effect. They are miserably tormented by their own behavior so that it is impossible for them to even live with themselves.
Miranda Rose Smith says
“Because of her gender?” I think you mean “Because of hdr SEX.” French nouns have GENDER.
John Sweet says
Why does this woman (Am I allowed to say woman?) still have a platform? Is it possible she “left” women?
BLSinSC says
Here’s something people never consider ! How about all the votes she LOST due to so many of their “FRIENDS” DYING from “accidents or aggressive, excessive suicides”!!
