How long did it take for those “Miss Me Yet?” billboards featuring George W. Bush to pop up, anyway? Regardless, Hillary Clinton supporters aren’t wasting any time letting the deplorable half of America know what a colossal mistake they made letting this one get away.
Just watched Hillary Clinton's speech at the Children's Defense Fund's awards ceremony. Oh America. You made a monumental mistake.

1) I'm even more embarrassed on America's behalf after watching Hillary's speech tonight.

#maddow Hillary's speech at Children's Defense Fund showed what a president should be. Thank you Hillary. I cry for what should have been.

Clinton delivered her first speech since her concession on Wednesday night at the Children’s Defense Fund gala, and to no one’s surprise, was roundly praised for it. After all, the world was put on notice that Clinton is “light itself” and “cannot be faulted, criticized, or analyzed for even one more second.”

speaking at the children's defense fund, nobody's watching to hear her talk about the children's defense fund.

Marian Wright Edelman notes Clinton won the popular vote & current lead is 1.2m votes "We're going to say she is the people's president!"

OK, you go ahead and do that.
Super-fans might take notice that People’s President Clinton didn’t dispute the result of the election, call for the abolition of the Electoral College, or demand that her supporters march in the streets on her behalf. She did, however, admit that she was tempted to curl up into a ball and never leave the house again — even Eva Longoria managed to lift herself out of bed after two days.

One former passenger on Air Hillary was duly impressed.
Hillary Clinton showed tonight, yet again, that she'll just keep going, no matter how devastating the setback https://t.co/0y6BEePDaE

It’s worth a mention that, following Clinton’s loss, charitable donations spiked, although the largest recipients reportedly were the ACLU and (with Katy Perry’s backing) Planned Parenthood.
