Blaming everyone but herself.
Schumer tells Clinton 'blame yourself,' Trump echoes criticism
By Brooke Singman Published July 24, 2017 Fox News Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer had choice words for Hillary Clinton in an interview over the weekend, blasting the Democratic presidential nominee for blaming Russia for her loss to now-President Trump -- who picked up on the jab in a Monday morning tweet.
“When you lose to somebody who has a 40 percent popularity, you don’t blame other things—Comey, Russia—you blame yourself,” Schumer told the Washington Post. “So what did we do wrong? People didn’t know what we stood for, just that we were against Trump. And still believe that.”
Schumer, D-N.Y., was referring to comments Clinton has made tying her November election loss to multiple factors -- including former FBI Director James Comey’s decision to re-open the investigation into her private email server as well as the email hack of her campaign chairman's account.
The president echoed Schumer’s comments on Twitter early Monday, using them to suggest the probes of Russian meddling in the election and possible coordination with his associates are going nowhere.
After 1 year of investigation with Zero evidence being found, Chuck Schumer just stated that "Democrats should blame ourselves,not Russia." Back in May, Clinton said she would take “absolute personal responsibility” for losing presidential campaign -- but went on to blame Comey and Russian interference.
She also mentioned WikiLeaks, the antisecrecy website which some analysts believe to be connected to Russia and which posted the hacked emails of Clinton Campaign Chairman John Podesta.
“I was on the way to winning until a combination of Jim Comey’s letter on October 28 and Russian WikiLeaks raised doubts in the minds of people who were inclined to vote for me but were scared off,” Clinton said at the Women for Women International Conference.
She added: "If the election were on October 27, I'd be your president."

Losing is going eat away at her for as long as she lives. Just as it has McCain.

Damn! If those folks hadn't told the truth about her, she'd have been elected! In other words, she sort of acknowledges her actions, just deeply resents the fact they were made public?

Al Gore, who was oh so close to winning in 2000, had the common decency to hide out, and grow a beard after the election was settled. That Clinton woman might do the same.

But, just as Hillary, Gore is busier than ever behind the scenes, trying to further their Socialist agenda. Make no mistake about it. Ed

Mikw Exactly. She is correct that she probably would have won in mid-October, before any of the truth leaked out.

I'm getting tired of hitting the mute button whenever chuck-you opens his mouth . . . I wish my TV had an app I could program for that.

I wonder what his opinion of her would be by now if she HAD won.
