Hillary Clinton said she’s “convinced” that Trump campaign associates cooperated with Russia to meddle in the 2016 presidential election, according to a report.
“There certainly was communication and there certainly was an understanding of some sort,” Clinton told USA Today in an interview released late Monday. “Because there’s no doubt in my mind that (Russian President Vladimir) Putin wanted me to lose and wanted Trump to win. And there’s no doubt in my mind that there are a tangle of financial relationships between Trump and his operation with Russian money. And there’s no doubt in my mind that the Trump campaign and other associates have worked really hard to hide their connections with Russians.”
“I’m convinced of it,” she continued in the interview tied to Tuesday’s release of her book “What Happened.” “I happen to believe in the rule of law and believe in evidence, so I’m not going to go off and make all kinds of outrageous claims. But if you look at what we’ve learned since (the election), it’s pretty troubling.”
The former Democratic presidential candidate said she believes more lurks behind Russia’s hacking of the election, Wikileaks release of emails from the Democratic National Committee and from her campaign chairman John Podesta and the recent revelations that the Kremlin bought Facebook ads to plant fake news stories.
And then there’s the role Donald Trump played, she said. see also Trump says Dems keep running with 'phony Russian Witch Hunt' Trump says Dems keep running with 'phony Russian Witch Hunt'
“Trump mentioned Wikileaks 160 times in October,” she said. “Why? He’s trying to let people know what he thinks is important and also what he’s done and what he knows about? Which I think is a fair question,” she said.
Trump has called claims he colluded with the Kremlin during the election a “witch hunt” and has said the story was created by Democrats as an excuse for losing the election.
Clinton also said Moscow was motivated to interfere in the election because of Putin’s “personal vendetta” against her, which can be traced to NATO’s expansion in eastern Europe during Bill Clinton’s administration and the part she played when she was secretary of state in encouraging demonstrations against him in 2011.
”Yet I never imagined that he would have the audacity to launch a massive covert attack against our own democracy, right under our noses – and that he’d get away with it,” she told the newspaper.

Insufferable, lying bitch!
The only ones getting away with anything are the criminals Billy Goat and Hitlery!
They have left such a pile of corpses in their journey to untold wealth that it's enough to make an honest person puke their guts out. Deep down they're the worst form of trailer trash.

They probably brought out their secret weapon: a pyramid-shaped space elevator.

The one person we all KNOW is not to blame for her losing is her. She is perfect in every way. If you don't believe it,just ask her.

I think Her Thighness will not be pleased when the hook comes out to drag her fat ass off the stage, screeching shrilly about those damned deplorables.
I can't wait.

Not a chance. She will go to her grave believing she should have been the First Queen of the US because she is "THAT deserving of the title,and the most superior being in the world."
Bubba made one of the most brilliant moves ever when he married that woman. No matter what he did or does,he still looks like a bashful choir boy compared to her. She is and always has been a semi-human lightening rod that took all the heat away from him.

BTW,we all understand this book is more about being a legal way to launder pay-offs for political favors by using public money to buy the books for public libraries,but I have to wonder how many copies are being sold to individuals? Other than individuals who are buying them to donate to public schools,public libraries,and to hold up short table legs,that is.
I am betting most non-institutional sales will wind up in public landfills right after being purchased. Writing (having someone else do the work and taking credit for it) books when leaving office is a traditional money-laundering source for politicians. Everybody knows it,but no one in a position to do anything about it wants it stopped and the offenders brought to court.

They didn't. The only tremendous outrage during the election process was the number of non-personages that voted for Hitlery.

So far, most copies seem to have been sold to people bent on ridiculing it at length on social media.
Even the libs are ridiculing it. And her. And telling her to shut up and go away. Including some longtime Xlintonian puppet figures.

I wasn't aware of that,although the left are NOT liberal. They are left-wingers and fascists.
Are there genuine Bubbette! supporters dumping on her,or leftists that followed Bernie and still feeling "da burn"?

It's pretty much everybody.
You recall there was a lot of pent-up Xlinton fatigue even before she lost to Trump. It was evident when she lost to that nobody state senator from Illinois, 0bama.
Somehow this book has created its own shut-the-fuck-up-and-go-away moment for the libs and Lefties.
Of course, she still has some fans. I saw people had lined up for 12 hours to get 12 seconds with her to autograph their copy of her new book. It was at some B&N in NYC.
