Hillary Clinton: Biden 'is building the kind of coalition that I had'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Hillary Clinton said in a new interview that Joe Biden's path to the 2020 nomination looks similar to hers back in 2016.

“What Joe’s victories on Super Tuesday showed is that he is building the kind of coalition that I had basically,” Clinton said in an interview with CNN's “Fareed Zakaria GPS” that aired Sunday.

“It’s a broad-based coalition,” she said. “I finished, you know, most of the work I needed to do for the nomination on Super Tuesday, and then it kind of lingered on. And I think Joe is on track to doing exactly the same thing: putting together a coalition of voters who are energized.”

Biden stunned election observers last week on Super Tuesday when he won a swath of states by better-than-expected margins against his main rival Bernie Sanders. Four years ago, Clinton also built up a small but significant lead on Super Tuesday when she faced off against Sanders, who stayed in the delegate race through June.

4. She'd be president right now

if it weren't for a stolen election and media ratfucking. She won the popular vote by ~3 million votes... there was nothing wrong with her coalition.

[MrsCoffee]

10. It took treason to keep her out of office.

Mum fucking indeed.

[texasfiddler]

2. I wish she would not say that. I'm having 2016 flashbacks

[treestar]

60. At least we know this time

not to take any swing state for granted.

[Under The Radar]

3. She needs to bow out of the commentary until the general.

Too many hard feelings for her to be bragging about her campaign.

[2naSalit]

5. She won, the only hard feelings are that

she was not inaugurated. That energy should be transformed into making sure our candidate actually makes it all the way to the WH.

[Under The Radar]

11. I was more or less referring to the DNC primary with Bernie

Bernie will lose this on his own merits, and Joe should win on his own. We need Bernie supports to vote in the general election and they were disenfranchised in 2016 and stayed home.
I love the Clintons, have since Bills first term as governor, but Hilary won the popular vote which unfortunately win the presidency, not just one mistake was made but many, and not having young Bernie supporters involved was one of those issues.

[MrsCoffee]

13. No. If any lesson was learned from 2016 it's that no one holds the party hostage.

Not fucking playing with the Bernie Bros this time around.

[StevieM]

19. She did everything she could to win over young Bernie supporters.

She reached out, she talked about her policies, and she even hired his staffers when the primaries were over.

[2naSalit]

58. I think that the

bernie supporters who didn't vote for HRC were the bots and trolls.

[Under The Radar]

59. Could be, plus the young folks didn't show up in '16 and didn't show last tues

[onetexan]

7. Hillary is now a private citizen like the rest of us. She can speak her mind as she pleases.

Bernie will probably insult her as part of the establishment, as he's insulted the rest of us.

[Under The Radar]

23. Fine just don't go on National TV

Make comments that serve no purpose but to make a section of our voters disgruntled. The goal here is not to win American Idol, it is to save democracy from a dictatorship. The message should be we are all together on this one.
It is obvious that Bernie doesn’t have the support to gain anymore delegates, his campaign is dying, why keep shooting?

[onetexan]

35. For all the grief he costed her she's entitled to speak her mind, just as you are to your dos pesos.

[Under The Radar]

53. I doubt that she will stop for my concern

And we are all entitled to speak our mind, but some should realize what they say could have consequences that affect the lives of others, but hey, as long as it is legal.

[MrsCoffee]

12. She needs to do whatever the fuck she want.

I'd brag if I had won an election by 3,000,000 votes.

[Under The Radar]

26. So scorch the earth because she wasn't inaugurated?

[MrsCoffee]

27. She scorched no earth.

How in the hell is saying that Biden would be a more efficient Democrat scorched earth?

So much fucking hyperbole.

[Under The Radar]

29. I am really having trouble seeing who you are pissed at.

I didn’t say Biden was more efficient. I voted for Hilary and Biden campaigned for her. So neither of us are at fault for Hilarys loss.
She isn’t in the game today, plain and simple.

[MrsCoffee]

30. Hillary said Biden was more efficient. That's it.

You are the one who said she was scorching the earth.

That's one of the most ridiculous things I've read today.

She can say whatever she wants. She is one of the most qualified people in this country to talk about our political environment.

Get over it.

[Under The Radar]

34. No Ma'am, I said YOU were scorching the earth

Seemingly upset that Hilary isn’t President

[MrsCoffee]

36. Yeah, because I said I would say what she said.

You are freaking hilarious.

You know how to follow the lines of discussion on a message board right?

[Under The Radar]

38. I know them well but confused on your path

[LanternWaste]

40. Almost as upset as you are because Clinton voiced an opinion, eh?

I mean, if we're gonna indict others for a petulant, unsupported temper tantrum, we really should begin with the mug looking at you from your mirror.

Unless (and this is my guess) you're simply holding others to a higher standard than you hold yourself to.

[Under The Radar]

44. Not upset about her opinion

I just don’t think that she needs to kick Bernie while he is already falling, and do so on national TV.

[LizBeth]

46. His people are spreading Biden has Dementia. Sanders needs to be taken down.

When Sanders was "falling" He and his people promoted HRC was corrupt. Lock her up. Sanders gets no special privileges because he is losing. He damages as a loser.

[Under The Radar]

47. I know, as most can see that this is why he is failing.

His bites at the “establishment” and the Corp Media, it all makes him look bad.
He got his clock cleaned Super Tuesday, All of it because of his bitching about South Carolina.
I am not a Bernie fan although I have respected him since his 1st term in the Senate. He has young support that we want and need, the next generation needs to be progressive. I don’t want to alienate them with profession wrestling rhetoric.

[LizBeth]

21. Never. I value her voice the last four years and can't wait to hear her the next 20 yrs.

[Cha]

51. "Bragging"? Hillary has every right to TALk about

her campaign.. and the "bad feelings" are that we got fucking trump bc the Russians wanted him along with the assistance of Liars like stein and ssarandon,

[relayerbob]

6. Please Hillary, just bite your tongue

I voted for you and appreciate the truth in your statements. But they aren't helpful, in any way, this year.

[MrsCoffee]

14. Please Hillary, do whatever the fuck you want.

Sing the truth from the mountain tops!

[relayerbob]

25. Both times she criticized Sanders his numbers went up 3-5%

This isn't about her truth, it's about the perception others have of her. I personally love both her and Bill, but seriously, they both need to stay out of it, they are too polarizing

[onetexan]

39. and you can empirically prove Sanders' numbers going up because of Hillary's comments?

I'll also add that BS is much more polarizing than the Clintons. Look what's he's done in 2016 and now in these primaries.

[LanternWaste]

42. It does not follow.

Christ. I need to simply go with the underlying assumption that Logic is simply discarded in favor simplistic allegations we can't support with objective evidence.

Like you're doing.

[Go Vols]

8. :/

[BidenBacker]

9. Dear Hillary

Please STFU.

When the clock gets down to 0 then you can unzip it.

Regards,
BB

[MrsCoffee]

15. Yea, she can do whatever the fuck she wants.

Take your own advice.

[BidenBacker]

17. How's the weather back in 2016?

Can we PLEASE take a break from the Clintons for ONE fucking election???

[MrsCoffee]

18. You can do whatever you want. Why do you think you can dictate what everyone else does?

Especially a woman more qualified than most to voice an opinion on politics in our country.

[MrsCoffee]

22. Saying you should take your own advice is offensive to you?

That makes total sense actually.

[William769]

31. Problem solved.

[MrsCoffee]

33. Thanks.

Irks me to no end when people start telling Hillary to sit down and shut up.

[LanternWaste]

43. Tough old world when her experience is louder than our own shrillness.

[Cha]

50. I appreciate hearing from Hillary anytime anywhere..

She would have been our Madam POTUS if not for Russia and all the Liars that assisted them like jill stein and ssarandon to name 2.

[LizBeth]

24. You stfu, I say respectfully. ;). HRC never has to stfu again. She is .... Free!

[rzemanfl]

37. Bookmarking. n/t

[rzemanfl]

41. I always read profiles. n/t

[oasis]

45. "She who knows, and knows that she knows, is wise, follow her".

[William769]

16. Some Biden supporters comments in this thread About Mrs. Clinton

Sound just like some Sanders supporters on who should and should not speak and for who.

Let that sink in.

[Cha]

52. Ikr.. I just read them

and responded accordingly. Booom

[progressoid]

32. If he gets the nom, let's hope he takes a different path to get to the the White House.

[StevieM]

54. All the evidence tells us that her path was good enough to secure a decisive win until Comey

decided to rig the whole damn thing.

[progressoid]

56. Even Hillary didn't blame it all on Comey.

There was also the media, sexism, Russia, her campaign strategy, a bankrupt DNC, etc. etc.

[StevieM]

57. She is wrong IMO. Comey dominated that election from start to finish. (eom)

[Turin_C3PO]

48. True but

hopefully he’ll have higher African-American turnout in some key cities (Milwaukee, Philadelphia, and Detroit specifically). If that happens, then Trump loses.

[StevieM]

55. She outperformed John Kerry in states that have not implemented voter suppression methods since 2004

[Skid Rogue]

49. She's correct...

but hopefully folks will be less complacent this time. Anti-Trump sentiment is very high.
