Wasn’t it just a week ago that Hillary Clinton was in India telling a receptive audience that the reason she lost the 2016 election is because of all of those backward states that voted against “black people getting rights” and “women, you know, getting jobs.”
There was also the problem of white women voters listening to their husbands, sons, and male bosses, and feeling compelled to vote Trump.
But like we said, that was last week. Now, with news of the Cambridge Analytica “scandal” making the rounds, Clinton would like more answers as to why she lost.
Hillary Clinton wants to know if Cambridge Analytica and Russian operatives worked together to derail her presidential campaign https://t.co/bEOe5FM7c3 pic.twitter.com/yFLSO8fBGg

Hmm … Russian operatives and Cambridge Analytica might have worked together to derail her campaign — which was firmly on track otherwise, right?
Hillary Clinton, in an interview originally recorded last year, questioned whether Cambridge Analytica and Russian operatives may have worked together during the 2016 US election.
…
“The real question,” Clinton said last year while promoting her book about the 2016 election, “is how did the Russians know how to target their messages so precisely to undecided voters in Wisconsin, or Michigan, or Pennsylvania.”
Clinton continued: “So if they were getting advice from, let’s say, Cambridge Analytica or someone else about, ‘OK, here are the 12 voters in this town in Wisconsin — that’s whose Facebook pages you need to be on to send these messages,’ that indeed would be very disturbing.”
Most disturbing, though, is how Russian operatives managed to conceal all of Wisconsin from the Clinton campaign.
Oh dear God, this will never end! #Hillary https://t.co/6fTb47nUqe

It’s year 2044: Hillary’s harvested brain in a robot has blamed space aliens for her loss in 2016. American media covers the story extensively https://t.co/ljMtHthjRS

There MUST be someone other than Hillary responsible for her failed campaign. https://t.co/qIYIpTRnyt

My guess: they didn't work together to derail her campaign nearly as hard as Huma Abedin and Anthony Weiner did. https://t.co/PiiX1zmVQ1

Yes, they tricked the Democratic Party into nominating Hillary Clinton. https://t.co/QlqgBNcRCi

You'd think Hillary would've gotten wise to Cambridge Analytica and Russian operatives' scheme to keep her from campaining in Wisconsin by September. https://t.co/i7sz2v078Q

Did they hack the airline reservation systems to prevent you from booking flights to Wisconsin? https://t.co/RChR1MrfkI

Yes, Mee-Maw, they hacked all your campaign maps to not show Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania, then hacked your TelePrompTer so you’d call half the country deplorable.https://t.co/t2wAmwda3k

Narrator: What actually derailed the campaign was running a terrible campaign for a terrible candidate. https://t.co/7T1YLj9TXE

When Obama used big data to swing votes in key seats he was a genius. When others do it's clearly a conspiracy. Come off it Clinton, you just didn't win enough votes in the right places… https://t.co/TvE35gYhge

People who actually know something about technology (which does not include Hillary, as leaked emails hilariously demonstrate) show that CA had zero impact. Zero. https://t.co/yLHtBb691v https://t.co/Haye0inrS2
