HRC Book Megathread - HRC - "No absolution for women who didn't vote for me"

[fluffypanther19]

In her book "What Happened," Clinton questions why other mainstream Democratic politicians haven't faced the same scrutiny over their 2003 support for the Iraq War. “Why am I seen as such a divisive figure and, say, Joe Biden and John Kerry aren’t?” she asks. “They’ve cast votes of all kinds, including some they regret, just like me? What makes me such a lightning rod for fury?" "I’m really asking. I’m at a loss,” Clinton adds.

Hillary once again points out the sexist double standards that she faces, but Atlas is going to say she needs to sit down and shut up.

She needs to sit down and shut up.

It's astonishing to me after watching some portions of the interview how she doesn't get where "her party" is. She says something like "if bernie doesn't want to be here he should go somewhere else". What in the world she thinks that would do to a democratic party? How many votes would Democratic party win if there was a three party system with progressives having their own party? She still thinks she was entitled to votes, she was entitled to be the nominee, how dare this socialist coming to MY party, stealing MY votes, how dare these bernie bros challenging people on twitter?

Those were never YOUR votes, Hillary. And if democratic party wants to go down that road, well, I feel sorry for them.

AMEN! the Clinton wing of the party failed spectacularly and now need to shut up and take a backseat to the progressive wing. Just like the establishment wing of the RNC failed twice in a row and had to move aside for Trump's populist wing, albeit very reluctantly. And what did the RNC get in return for moving aside? Complete control of the gov't, very disorganized control, but thats another story.

Uh are you seriously going to insult Tyler Oakley of all people? It would be an honor to sound like him, and I can't imagine anyone on the left or center disagreeing with me on that.

i think i'm towards the political center and i don't give a flying f**k about Oakley and what does he do anyway?
