In her upcoming memoir, Hillary Clinton expresses regret and explains what she wishes she could go back and do differently during her failed 2016 campaign, according to excerpts released Wednesday.
In one of the excerpts, Clinton specifically addressed how she felt to have now-President Donald Trump standing behind her during a debate at Washington University in St. Louis.
"It was incredibly uncomfortable," she said, describing the moment. "He was literally breathing down my neck. My skin crawled. It was one of those moments where you wish you could hit pause and ask everyone watching, well, what would you do?"
The book -- which is titled "What Happened" and is rendered as a statement, not a question, on the cover -- is set to be released September 12. The excerpts were obtained by MSNBC's "Morning Joe," which aired the audio recording of Clinton reading the book herself. Ref. CNN.
She really needs to take ownership of a lot more than that. She ran an awful campaign. Of course, she was an awful candidate and the Democrats anointed her. She had so much baggage it weighed her down. I can't understand how the Democrats blinded themselves to this. I mean, to lose to Donald Trump is not an easy thing to do. I was hoping Biden would run… but he didn't.
The British publicist who arranged the June 2016 meeting with Russians and Donald Trump Jr. Sent multiple emails to a Russian participant and a member of Donald Trump's inner circle later that summer, multiple sources told CNN, the first indication there was any follow-up after the meeting.
The emails raise new questions for congressional investigators about what was discussed at Trump Tower. Trump Jr. Has for months contended that after being promised he would get dirt on Hillary Clinton, the brief meeting focused almost exclusively on the issue of Russian adoptions, saying there was no discussion with the participants after that session. Ref. CNN.
Something a lot of people seem to forget when producing studies of this kind - correlation does NOT equal causation.Unless this scientist can produce verifiable evidence that the death rate is linked to the voting choices, it is the same as skirt length paralleled to economy. The two, while following the same curves, are not directly linked and could be results of a third (Or other) factors.

President Trump disbands controversial voter fraud commission, blames states for refusing to provide info. Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday to dissolve the commission he set up to study allegations of voter fraud in last year's presidential election, saying he didn't want to waste taxpayer money fighting with state governments over their voter data. Trump has claimed the election included as many as 3 to 5 million fraudulent voters, enough to erase Hillary Clinton's advantage in the popular vote. The commission has come under fire from civil and voting rights groups that charge it aims to suppress voter turnout, particularly among minorities. Ref. USAToday.
Well yeah, at some point one has to realize that just because you say something does not make it true. The elections were what they were the only fishy area is what is being investigated now.
