Hillary Clinton Again Blames 'Misogyny' for Election Defeat

Failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has once again blamed her widespread unpopularity on misogyny, telling a summit this week that it “certainly played a role” in her election defeat to Donald Trump last November.

“Certainly misogyny played a role,” Clinton told a Women in the World Summit on Thursday. “I mean, that has to be admitted.”

She then went on to claim that people felt uncomfortable with her being a successful woman, claiming that there is an “inverse relationship” between success and popularity that only applies to women.

Clinton’s comments were in response to a question on why she lost the election, to which she said she believed that there was no single reason.

“[Like] in any campaign, there are so many different crosscurrents and events, and some have a greater impact than others,” she said.

Regardless of her party affiliation - she just was and still is unlikeable. It's just that simple.

Hillary Clinton doesn't get it. No one is interested in her excuses or anything else Clinton for that matter anymore. She's a has-been who seems to resurface often like an unwanted suitor. Why she hasn't gotten the hint is a mystery because she's been told by the country, no one is interested. She is ineffectual and irrelevant.
