    I mean, if I were her I’d feel drained and devastated. Everything that happened during the election and people still picked Trump over her…

      I have a hard time feeling sorry for her after leaving the left hanging and going after conservative votes. She made an incredibly poor strategic choice and it cost all of us.

      Obviously she’s not the only one to blame here, conservatives deserving the majority of blame followed by people that stayed home, but she doesn’t deserve pity.

        … not to mention she didn’t ask for a recount. That one was a red flag for me.

          A recount requires a vote to be close, it wasn’t. Trump won every swing state. And with the margins he won by, every recount in the world would not overcome the 86 EVs she trailed by.

            The election results were very close - and it was a big election, some ballots were rejected, there were bomb threats and there were also statistical anomalies. She should have asked for a recount.

        Pity maybe not, but understanding definitely. If that were me ya’ll picked Trump over I’d tell all ya’ll to fuck right off while I prep a boat to Europe. Then all the people saying I should stay out of it would be bitching that I’m not participating anymore.

          Exactly. If I were her, I’d fuck off to Europe and send a big fat middle finger to everyone asking for help.

          Is that in the best interests of the American people? No. Is it an entirely understandable reaction? Yes.

            Sending a big fat middle finger to everyone asking for help was basically her campaign.

      If she’s still drained and devastated months after losing, she’s not emotionally mature enough to be president. What’s going to happen the first time a soldier gets killed in combat? At least Hillary has some cajones, Harris never gave me that impression.
