Eleven months on from foisting her second grabby megalomaniac on the United States, Hillary Clinton has resurfaced. Not to apologise for losing the presidency to an angry hairpiece who mimicked the disabled for laughs at campaign rallies — no, Clinton has a book to spruik. What Happened is published by Simon & Schuster and will be on the shelves from Tuesday.
Clinton appeared on CBS Sunday Morning to promote what, if the trails are to be believed, will be a standard Clinton exercise in self-justification and blame-shifting. It takes a village to take the fall. She will blast primary opponent Bernie Sanders for enabling Donald Trump’s ‘Crooked Hillary’ meme and get snippy with Joe Biden over her campaign’s middle-class bona fides. In today’s Democrat Party, attacking Joe Biden is like punching the family dog and no doubt Rover will eventually be fingered as a member of the vast right-wing conspiracy.
In her CBS interview, she took a swipe at former FBI director James Comey for his investigation into her use of a private email server to receive classified communications during her time as Secretary of State.
