Since losing the November 2016 US presidential election to Donald Trump,
Hillary Clinton has seemingly been in the news for only one thing:
blaming everyone but herself for her defeat. The latest object of her
scorn is Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT), her chief opponent in the
Democratic primaries.
Clinton's new book, "What Happened," seeks to explain in her own words
why she lost to Trump despite being clearly favored by pollsters, the
political establishment, and the majority of mainstream media sources.
Clinton's seventh book, which is slated for a September 12 release, is
described on the book's official website as the story of an "intense
personal experience of becoming the first woman nominated for president
by a major party in an election marked by rage, sexism, exhilarating
highs and infuriating lows, stranger-than-fiction twists, Russian
interference, and an opponent who broke all the rules."
Something not mentioned in the blurb? Bernie Sanders, a "fundamentally
wrong" candidate whose policies were "pipe dreams" and whose tactics
involved resorting to "innuendo and impugning [Clinton's] character."
"Throughout the primaries, every time I wanted to hit back
against Bernie's attacks, I was told to restrain myself," wrote Clinton
in her book.
