(16,095 posts)She's not running for office, she's a private citizen at this point and can say whatever she pleases.
And she was more measured than the oafish hellbeast in the white house.
ETA: That sounded crankier than I meant it to! Sorry...cranky about the situation, not you.

Hillary Clinton still knows what rattles him. And I'm glad that she publicly recognizes that he's illegitimate.

(81,475 posts)No, it doesnt kill me because he knows hes an illegitimate president, she said. I believe he understands that the many varying tactics they used, from voter suppression and voter purging to hacking to the false stories he knows that there were just a bunch of different reasons why the election turned out like it did.
Clinton compared her election loss to applying for a job and getting 66 million letters of recommendation and losing to a corrupt human tornado. And so I know that he knows that this wasnt on the level. I dont know that well ever know what happened.
Clinton, who was joined by her daughter, Chelsea, for the interview to promote their new book about women in history, also discussed her support for an impeachment inquiry into Trump. She said there are a number of grounds for it but that the latest news about his phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, when Trump asked Zelensky to investigate Bidens son, is incredibly troubling.
She compared Trumps latest effort to spread negative stories about Biden, who is leading in most polls to be the 2020 Democratic nominee, to what he did to her during their campaign.
The most outrageously false things were said about me, Clinton said. And unfortunately, enough people believed them. So this is an effort to sow these falsehoods against Biden. And I dont care if youre for the [Democrats] or youre a Republican, when the president of the United States, who has taken an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, uses his position to in effect extort a foreign government for his political purposes, I think that is very much what the founders worried about in high crimes and misdemeanors.
Clinton also predicted Trump would lose in 2020 because there were many funny things that happened in my election that will not happen again.

(13,975 posts)Where I live, many of the far left voters who didnt vote Clinton have owned up to their mistake and are committed to voting for the Dem nominee. Not all of them, by any means, but a lot of them. Hopefully my anecdotal observations turn out to be true across the country.
