For the record: “Hillary complained … that Trump stoked racial grievances and that ‘millions of white people’ were responsible for her loss.

Political futures: “Imagine being so bitter about losing an election that you launch a publicity tour less than a year later to blame your loss on everyone but yourself. Imagine losing a winnable election to a massively unpopular candidate, and still refusing to concede that you made some glaringly obvious mistakes in the race. That dream is becoming a reality with Hillary Clinton’s newest campaign.” —Becket Adams

Delusions of grandeur: “If I had won, you know, I would have been seen as a genius; my campaign would have been seen as perfect.” —Hillary Clinton

Ouch: “[Clinton] might be the only Democrat who’s excited in Washington about [her new] book right now.” —Politico’s Rachael Bade

Non Compos Mentis, part II: “During a time when it’s impossible to watch the news without seeing violence or racism in this country, just when you think it couldn’t possibly be worse, natural disasters take precious life, do massive damage, and forever change lives. … The effects of climate change are playing out around the world every day.” —Beyoncé continuing the climate alarmism dogma

And last… “Much of the sales pitch for single payer relies upon amnesia about the grandiose promises of the ACA in 2009-2010.” —Jim Geraghty
