Hillary Clinton was shocked – just shocked – to learn that her former friend and campaign fund-raiser Harvey Weinstein had been harassing and assaulting women for 30 years.
At least, that’s what she told her interviewer from Channel Four after Clinton took a brief break from signing books during the London leg of her globe-trotting book tour to promote “What Happened”, her “mea culpa” from the 2016 campaign where the former Secretary of State blames everyone from Bernie Sanders to Russia to James Comey to institutionalized sexism…you get the idea.
Asked point blank if she was aware of Weinstein’s history – purportedly an “open secret” in Hollywood – Clinton emphatically insisted that she had not. Clinton famously waited five days after the first allegations against Weinstein were published in the New York Times to issue a statement condeming Weinstein and his actions and announcing that her campaign would return his contributions.
“All I can tell you is that I did not hear those things.”
“The issue really is how terrible his behavior was and finally women have come forward to speak out about it and they hadn’t before.”
But after being repeatedly pressed about her connection with Weinstein, Clinton successfully changed the subject to focus on a more convenient target.
"Look, we just elected someone who admitted sexual assault to the presidency. So there's a lot of other issues that are swirling around these kinds of behaviors that need to be addressed. "I think it's important that we stay focused, and shine a bright spotlight, and try to get people to understand how damaging this is."
(Was she referring to the past with Bill?)
Furthermore, Clinton admitted that her campaign has yet to return Weinstein’s campaign contribution, saying that returning the donation is a surprisingly complicated process - but regardless, the status of Weinstein’s donation isn’t important, Clinton said.
Of course, Clinton takes responsibility for her loss. She just wants the public to understand that there were “other factors” that contributed to her defeat other than her own arrogance, miscalculation and unlikability.
I don’t blame others. I take personal responsibility...but I think it’s important that people understand what happened.
When you have a massive propaganda effort to prevent people from thinking straight, and you have people who are searching and trying to make sense of it but every search engine they go into is reflecting these allegations.
(and she STILL LOST, LOL)
In conclusion, when asked what here biggest regret is, in life, Clinton responded with one word: Losing.
"I think that it is important to forget about Weinstein, and remember to keep all of the anti-Trump memes alive in the press that we have worked so hard to establish!"
Wow--how ridiculous is it to try and frame this creep as liberal America. When did conservatives turn into such special snowflakes? Oh no--everyone looks down on you. What will you ever do.
