Bless her heart: At her pity party, Hillary laments the scourge of 'fake news'

Ain’t no party like a Hillary pity party, cuz a Hillary pity party don’t stop!

Seriously. It just. Doesn’t. Stop:

Maybe if she hadn’t been among the worst presidential candidates in history, she’d be giving a different speech.

And maybe she’d have a little more credibility when it comes to warning about “fake news”:

Clinton: “It’s now clear that so-called fake news can have real consequences … it’s a danger that must be addresses and addressed quickly."

That Hillary. She’s something, isn’t she?

Serious question: Is she implying here that fake news is why she lost? https://t.co/bd4Om5ZjUx

Apparently she was referring to something specific:

But still, you’ve got to love the irony of someone like Hillary bemoaning the “epidemic of fake news.” She is, after all, Hillary Clinton. A woman who clawed her way to the top by lying and peddling false narratives.
