Clinton reasures America and the world that she is NOT over he win of the popular vote to beat Donald Trump but the loss of the election by 100,000 or so vote’s….
It’s probably worst everyday she hears more about how the Russian’s and other countries backrolled and helped Trump get the win….

— President Trump seems happy to have her as a continuing foil. One reason she has not faded into the backdrop is that he continues to routinely attack her, at times as if the campaign never ended. Crowds still chant “lock her up” at his rallies. The president called her “crooked” on Twitter yesterday and said she’s the one who should be investigated.
— In her speech, Clinton declared that she was not going to get political. Then, in the very next sentence, she said the right deserves more blame for the radicalization of American politics than the left. A minute after that, she advocated for gun control….
