After she finally emerged from hiding in a New York hotel to deliver her concession speech, Hillary Clinton seemed to vanish just as quickly. Her highest-profile appearance after that historic event was a totally chance encounter with a supporter in the woods of Chappaqua, who posted a selfie of herself and Hillary out on a hike.
That wasn’t the last sighting of Hillary Clinton in the woods by a long shot. In fact, just days ago, Twitter made Clinton sightings in the wild a “Moment.”
People are hiking in hopes of a Hillary Clinton sighting
It appears the chance of running into Hillary during a hike in the woods or during a trip to the grocery store is almost as good as the chance the New York Times would embarrass itself with some over-the-top analysis of the Democrat candidate before she reverted completely to a feral beast.
Some Americans have found a new folk hero in a familiar face: Hillary Clinton, comfortably dressed suburban retiree https://t.co/AN970tKbEt pic.twitter.com/mKXYQtVIx8

Because when Americans think of "folk hero," they think of a millionaire shopping in Westchester County ?

You forgot 2 mention that folk heroes are usually not gazillionaires who got rich by being "public servants." Shark? Jumped. AGAIN.

I think I should be up for the next folk hero piece you run:
✅I grocery shop
✅I wear comfy pants there
✅I have coughing fits— Pushbot (@HanShotThird) December 3, 2016
