The surreal post-election life of the woman who would have been president.
When I walk into the Chappaqua dining room in which Hillary Clinton is spending her days working on her new book, I am greeted by a vision from the past. Wearing no makeup and giant Coke-bottle glasses, dressed in a gray mock-turtleneck and black zip sweatshirt, Hillary looks less Clinton and more Rodham than I have ever seen her outside of college photographs. It's the glasses, probably, that work to make her face look rounder, or maybe just the bareness of her skin. She looks not like the woman who’s familiar from television, from newspapers, from America of the past 25 years, but like the 69-year-old version of the young woman who came to the national stage with a wackadoodle Wellesley commencement speech in 1969. With no more races to run and no more voters to woo with fancy hair, Clinton appears now as she might have if she'd aged in nature and not in the crucible of American politics. Still, this is not Hillary of the woods. She is reemerging, giving speeches and interviews. It’s clear that she is making an active choice to remain a public figure.
It's the day after Donald Trump has fired FBI director James Comey, the man who many - including Clinton - believe is responsible for the fact that she is spending this Wednesday in May working at a dining-room table in Chappaqua and not in the Oval Office. Clinton checks with her communications director, Nick Merrill, about what's happened in the past hour - she's been exercising - and listens to the barrage of updates, nodding like a person whose job requires her to be up-to-date on what's happening, even though it does not.

Poor old witch ... wearing no makeup and giant Coke-bottle glasses ... wearing a urine yellow colored gunny sack tunic and cheap costume jewellery ... looking less Clinton and more Rodham ... Hillary's disgraceful spectacle continues ... and you bad old Freepers have yourselves to blame!
She’d look much better in orange.
I think she’s been spending a lot of time with Lloyd the bartender since election night.
Angel of Death , come and claim her wretched soul
Comedy is why H-> is not in the Clink.
Can you hear the subtle vacuum-cleaneresqe hummming as the writer applies both lips and face-lock on Hillary’s nether regions in joyous praise - but in a completely honest and non-partisan impartial manner of adoration!
(Er, professional political analysis.)
Where are the escorts and the Wide Load signs?
The endless willingness of the media - which is, after all, the official propaganda arm of the Democratic Party - to give Hillary coverage and air her lame excuses gives me hope that she might be the Democratic nominee again in 2020. The woman is a loser and I’d love to see her heading up the Democratic ticket again - but that’s probably too much to hope for.

She’s wearing makeup in the yellow suit picture. The article says she was wearing black/grey when she met the reporter.
I don’t see her liver holding out for that long.
“Wearing no makeup and giant Coke-bottle glasses, dressed in a gray mock-turtleneck and black zip sweatshirt, ...”
That isn't what I read happened on election night.
Bitter Clinger/Klingon
The evil operating inside oozes from her eyes. Creepy.
The older she gets, the more she looks like Soros.

Preternatural derives from the Latin praeter naturam, which means “beyond nature.”
Her defeat occurred with preternatural speed.
Maybe we can get the mods to have that as Word of the Day.
