Hillary Clinton Slams Women Who Did Not Vote for Her, Says She Cannot Give ‘Absolution’

Hillary Clinton, in her campaign post-mortem released Tuesday, tore into women who didn’t vote for her failed presidential candidacy in November and regretted it, saying “these people were looking for absolution that I just couldn’t give.”

Clinton’s book, What Happened, is an angry account of how she lost to President Trump in November. Among the multitude of people/countries/events she blames for her defeat are young women who didn’t vote for her.

In the book, she talks about the Women’s March in D.C. and other cities across America as “bittersweet” as it contrasted the enthusiasm of activists with the lack of enthusiasm with which her campaign was greeted.

While she called the event “awe-inspiring on Twitter, she says she “couldn’t help but ask where those feelings of solidarity, outrage, and passion had been during the election.”

Well, Hillary, we went out and asked all the "Women's Marchers" what they were protesting or promoting there, and NONE of them could answer the question.

They just knew they were told to show up there and "demonstrate", but had no idea why.

I think they all saw that, went home, and made the right decision on election day.

But, that's just a little more than half of us...

Because most women, even the dumbest of them, knew that giving someone that kind of power and authority based solely on what they carried between their legs was, well, stupid.
But hillarys campaign was all about "we NEED a woman president" (a quote). And she knew exactly who that woman needed to be (her).
I tried to tell NASA they NEEDED a regular guy to go into space and play around a little.
They wrote back and said the job was a little more complicated than I could handle and just being a regular guy wasn't enough of a qualification.
I told them when I showed up, I would be identifying as a black female rocket scientist. They laughed (a lot, and loudly, for a while) and said that BS is for cross dressing sissies that do things that other people's lives don't depend on, like watching TV and looking for safe spaces.
They suggested a liberal arts degree. I said, "but hillary wanted to be president because she's a female!!" They laughed some more.
I laughed, too.
Keep cheering.
