7 Revelations from ‘Shattered’: New Book Detailing Hillary Clinton’s Failed Campaign

Hillary apologized to Obama after conceding to Trump – Shortly after calling Donald Trump to concede defeat, Clinton called Barack Obama and said simply, “Mr. President, I’m sorry. Clinton felt she had let herself, Obama, and the Democratic Party down. “Obama’s legacy and her dreams of the Presidency lay shattered at Donald Trump’s feet. This was on her,” the book reads.

Clinton was allegedly dumbfounded by the 2016 election’s populist upswing and her lack of white working class support – Confounded by the success of her Democratic primary challenger Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, Clinton reportedly told her longtime confidant Minyon Moore during the Democratic primaries: “I do not understand what is happening in our country.” She also questioned her staff on her to attract support from the white working class. “Why aren’t they with me?” she said. “Why can’t we bring them on board?”

Well, if the Democrat party spends eight years telling white middle-class voters that they're bigots, rotting from "white privilege," what did they expect the people to do? You can't keep insulting people and expect them to vote for you. Their base became special interests. Clinton's husband told her to reach out to the white middle-class voter, but she thought the Obama coalition of voters would sweep her in on a landslide.

And sadly, they're STILL playing identity politics and appealing to snowflakes who run to "safe spaces" when offended. They have to come back to the center and stop trying to appeal to the fringe. But I think they're married to identity politics by now....
