We Read Hillary's Book So You Don't Have To
Clinton takes complete ownership for how her actions are all your fault.
HD DownloadHillary Clinton's new book What Happened attempts to explain Trump's upset victory in 2016 through a series of reasons which are not Hillary Clinton. The gambit runs from apathetic white lady voters to Russian meddling to the inscrutable popularity of Donald Trump. When Clinton's focus turns to herself, however, she's light on culpability. She admits she can be guarded, but that admission doesn't encapsulate the relentless political ambition paired with shady financial dealings and a willingness to subvert national security that turned off much of the country.
In the end Clinton was also just a bad candidate.
In the latest Mostly Weekly Andrew Heaton explores Clinton's new book, so you don't have to.
