The moment Hillary Clinton was forced to give up her dreamThe moment Hillary Clinton was forced to give up her dreamEvery detail was designed to mark Hillary Clinton’s moment in history — from the glass ceiling at Manhattan’s Javits Center, where her supporters were gathered, to her and hubby Bill’s suite at The Peninsula hotel, selected so she could personally see Trump Tower, home to the foe she was set to crush. ( How'd that work out for you hilliary?)Then came the voter returns. In this exclusive excerpt from their fascinating new book, “Shattered,’’ political reporters Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes take readers inside Hillary Clinton’s world on the night that changed her life — and the nation — forever.

You just know that the details about how Hillary couldn't make her speech to her supporters account of her crying uncontrollably and being inconsolable was music to the ears of the family members of those killed at Benghazi whom she accused of lying about what she said regarding what they said. 

Hillary deserved, more than anyone, the defeat that she suffered at the hands of a non-politician and most of all Donald Trump.  This is a woman that from all accounts feels herself superior to all those around her and everyone else is sub servant to her.   She only tolerated being around those who voted for her because she could get something from them.  Her own entourage of Secret Service agents told stories about a very ugly person that thankfully will never see the White House (hopefully). 

Given her disdain for most everyone else other than her closest friends and the way she snubbed many feeling that the election was all hers and that she couldn't possibly lose makes the loss all the more appropriate.  You just know that she seethes in anger every time she  hears or reads about President Trump.

 “It’s in real bad shape,” Schale warned his friends. “What the f–k are you talking about?” Anzalone asked. Hillary was on her way to turning out more Sunshine State voters than any previous candidate of either party. Yeah, Trump was winning exurban and rural areas, but surely Democratic hot spots like Miami-Dade and Broward would erase the deficit.

No, Schale explained, Trump’s numbers weren’t just big, they were unreal. In rural Polk County, smack-dab in the center of the state, Hillary would collect 3,000 more votes than Obama did in 2012 — but Trump would add more than 25,000 votes to Mitt Romney’s total. In Pasco County, a swath of suburbs north of Tampa-St. Petersburg, Trump outran Romney by 30,000 votes.

****************

Hillary sat stone-faced, trying to process the unexpected and abrupt reversal of her fortunes. “OK,” she said over and over as she nodded. It was all she could muster.

 

"The night they drove old hilliary down
And all the bells were ringing
The night they drove old hilliary down
And the all the people were singing
They went, "Na, na, la, na, na, na"
