Political Crossfire Forums

If you didn't see, in the past few weeks, a few excerpts of Clinton's memoir from the 2016 election have leaked on the internet. They were all focused on Bernie Sanders. In those excerpts, she derides Sanders for positioning himself to his left and blames him for laying the groundwork for Trump's attacks on her in the general.

I figured these were leaked because they were the most obnoxious and bitter passages in an otherwise boring run-of-the-mill political memoir. But today the book was released and it appears that was just the start.



She's actually using this book to bitterly unload on regular people too. If she wanted to use this book to test the waters for some kind of return, this is no way to do it. If she wanted to use this book to set a course for the future of her party or her country, this is no way to do it. If she wanted to just make some money on a book deal, none of this was necessary. This whole project seems to be about vanity and spite. How the hell was this person ever allowed to be the competition against this disaster of a President? What the f**k?

I read some review somewhere from a pretty anti-HRC person (I can't remember who it was now) and they said there was actually a surprising amount of self-reflection/criticism in the book. I haven't read it (nor do I intend to) but I'm curious if you read the entire thing Philly. I'm sure only the juiciest of excerpts are coming out versus the more introspective (re:boring to the media) portions.

The big picture is, who f**k cares what HRC thinks. I, personally, don't give a shit what she has to say about anything right now, and she's only going to become fodder for Trumpskins trying to deflect from Trump's historic failings.

Just a reminder people were derided as a sexist for noting what a horrid person and politician she is, and the democratic party conspired and cheated in order to get her anointed as their candidate. I TOLD YOU f**k TO VOTE BERNIE. Now you people are looking for absolution that I just can't give. We all have to live with the consequences of our decisions.

it is refreshing she's finally being honest in her complete distaste for other people though, i'll give her that. she should have been the termagant shrew we all knew her to be instead of the pod person "persona" she presented. the honesty would have earned her more votes than she would have lost for being a flower of paradise
