.@HillaryClinton: "It is fair to say...certainly misogyny played a role" in the 2016 election. "I mean, that just has to be admitted."

Hillary Clinton Explains Why She Really Lost to Trump


http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/hillary-clinton/hillary-clinton-explains-why-she-really-lost-trump-n743581

by Kendall Breitman

Almost four months after her stunning defeat, Hillary Clinton on Thursday primarily blamed her loss to President Donald Trump on four factors that were beyond her control.

The former Democratic presidential candidate cited Russian meddling in the election, FBI Director James Comey's involvement toward the end of the race, WikiLeaks theft of emails from her campaign chairman, and misogyny.

Clinton's comments came during her first post-election interview at Tina Brown's eighth annual Women in the World Summit in New York City. She was questioned by Nicholas Kristof of The New York Times.

She largely cited these factors for her defeat: .......................

I'm digging it.

I will add on, however, that it was a particular kind of misogyny though that compounded it - that special misogyny reserved for white women who fight for the marginalized. It's one thing to be a woman running for high office, but she was a n****erlover AND a woman.

Hillary Clinton’s Compelling Full Interview at Women of the World Summit [VIDEO]

http://www.bros4america.com/hillary-clintons-candid-compelling-full-interview-at-women-of-the-world-summit-vid/

April 7, 2017 Alex Mohajer News

Former Democratic nominee for president Hillary Rodham Clinton spoke candidly and at length yesterday in New York City at the Women of the World Summit about losing the 2016 presidential election, an experience she called “devastating.” .....................



Her nearly hour long interview at the women’s empowerment conference had the former Secretary of State, Senator, and First Lady of the United States speaking to the New York Times about her hurts, her hopes, and her assessments arising from the election. Even more compelling, her sharp criticisms of the new administration, particularly Donald Trump’s handling of the health care bill, the muslim ban, and the targeting of women. Speaking about misogyny with a certain freeness surely provided to her by virtue of the fact that she is no longer campaigning, Clinton was in rare for, very clearly calling against specific policies.

Watch the full video, including comedian Samantha Bee’s moving introduction, here:

Particularly of note, a moment around the 27:40 mark where Clinton gets riled up, visibly angry discussing Russian bots and trolls and their interference with the election. “They want to crush your spirit,” Clinton said, continuing on that the trolls seek to strip you of your belief in yourself. “And I just refused to do that, which infuriated them even more.”
