‘Shattered’ Revelation: Clinton Campaign Hatched Russian Hacking Narrative 24 Hours After...
Big Government ^ | 4/21/17 | Jerome Hudson

Posted on 04/21/2017 7:19:33 PM PDT by markomalley

The new Clinton campaign tell-all, Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton’s Doomed Campaignreveals how Hillary Clinton personally placed blame for her bruising defeat on Russian meddling “within twenty-four hours of her concession speech.”

The blistering behind-the-scenes book, by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, illustrates how Hillary Clinton furiously blamed her defeat on the FBI investigation into her private emails, Russian interference, and Trump’s supposed support from “white nationalists.”

From Shattered:

On a phone call with a longtime friend a couple of days after the election, Hillary was much less accepting of her defeat. She put a fine point on the factors she believed cost her the presidency: the FBI (Comey), the KGB (the old name for Russia’s intelligence service), and the KKK (the support Trump got from white nationalists).

“I’m angry,” Hillary told her friend. And exhausted. After two brutal campaigns against Sanders and Trump, Hillary now had to explain the failure to friends in a seemingly endless round of phone calls. That was taking a toll on her already weary and grief-stricken soul. But mostly, she was mad— mad that she’d lost and that the country would have to endure a Trump presidency.

And then there is that atrocious “Tent Wardrobe” she chose to replace her equally atrocious pantsuits.

What the hell was she covering up?

The speculation I've seen is she has mid stage Parkinson's disease or has Parkinson like symptoms related to the nasty fall she took at the end of 2012. She has taken a few nasty spills before that, even breaking her elbow in 2009. I believe she blamed those falls on low blood pressure. If you read up on PD, many of your questions seem to fit..

I noticed this... When you mapped the LA Times daily tracking poll to the various campaign events that were going on, Hillary’s polling numbers would go up during her 3 or 4 days off. Her poll numbers improve the less you see her. This makes a lot of sense if you think about it. There is not one thing like able about her. Add to that her campaign message was nothing but “I am not Trump” while Trump actually had a position on issues.

I forgot about the Scooby van. There were a few gimmicky things she did during the campaign (a Democrat specialty) while Trump was out there getting it done.

Yep, Hillary lost bad..spent a LOT of money

In the final analysis, all the elbow grease and wax in the world couldn't polish that turd enough to give cankles even the appearance of a shine.

The article is not untrue. Only the headline is misleading.

I still think one of the main reasons she lost is because of that collapse in NYC. People aren’t stupid and they saw a sick old bag.

I’m reading the book now. I recommend it if you want to spend time with some of the most awful people on the planet...

I agree.

In addition, it was amazing to see “Hillary” reappear a couple of hours later outside of Chelsie’s apt in total good health.

It certainly makes one wonder about the allegations of a “double”.

Don't expect this book to have the verve of an Ed Klein tell-all. It's plodding and, so far (I'm in Chapter 2), it is her boring wonkiness that lost her the election not her scheming, corrupt nature.

That second appearance just added to the bizarre nature of the day. An aide should have just come out and said she had heatstroke or exhaustion and let it go. Instead, we get Miss Rictus Grin out there on a NY sidewalk waving to the crowd like QE2. So bizarre!

I still think it’s amazing how Putin got thousands and thousands of people to stand in line for hours, in bad weather, just to be at a Trump rally. That’s impressive.

She cannot connect to people. Someone said oh but she is great with small groups, but I remember the meeting with the coal miners

She told them they were worthless and they needed to go back to school. But she is great with her 30% fanatical base and groups thereof. When she goes out on stage she smiles and waves to some of them, or directly to a toady she recognizes in the front row. She has an extremely dedicated inner circle who were willing to strip classification markings from classified text so she could read them on her unsecured blackberry in Russia. Her outer circle revealed in the State Dept emails send her sweet nothing emails about how great she is.

She mistook fanatical support and fake polls for real support. Like you say she is mediocre and her inability to recognize that she was failing is part of that.

That was taking a toll on her already weary and grief-stricken soul. But mostly, she was mad— mad that she’d lost and that the country would have to endure a Trump presidency.

*endure* is a matter of opinion.

I prefer *revel in*.

*Enduring* would be what we'd be doing for decades if she got in and wreaked the havoc she was planning on.

Yep, Hillary lost bad..spent a LOT of money, and had all of the Hollywood gang, and the news organizations, and the political machines. So she lost. She is angry. Okay.... Let;s turn the page, and let her sink, and move on with the peoples choice, Donald Trump.

NO, no turning the page, she must be investigated for her attack on babies, children and her part in the podesta child sacrificing.
