Clinton and Trump aides start shouting in post-election panel
Mandy Grunwald, a top communications aide for Clinton, said that the Trump campaign had used dark online communities to inflict “a very impressive gassing” of Hillary Clinton: “I don’t think you guys give yourself enough credit for the negative campaign you ran”.
“No, you wouldn’t. No, you wouldn’t”, taunted Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway.
“You did, Kellyanne. You did”, Clinton spokeswoman Jennifer Palmieri shot back.
“He’s done that many times; now you’re just lying”, Conway complained.
Sanders beat Clinton in the Democratic primaries in MI and Wisconsin – states that Trump won in the general election. She added: “They see Donald Trump as their standard-bearer”. She stuck to that message Friday morning when she appeared on the Fox News show “Fox & Friends.”
“I said, Greg, you gotta help us out here”.
The founder of the petition said he knows it’s unlikely Trump will be blocked from becoming president, but he had to express his reservations about the election results. “Will you tell your protesters that he’s their president too?”
A post-mortem on the presidential race, a staple of every campaign since 1972, erupted in a series of extraordinary exchanges at the institute of politics at Harvard University’s Kennedy school of government. “How did we win?”
“Oh, that’s how you lost?”
The Clinton staffers pointed to Trump’s decision to bring in Steve Bannon ― who has boasted that his Breitbart News website had become a platform for white nationalists who call themselves the Alt-Right ― as the campaign’s CEO in August.
Although it’s been nearly a month since Donald Trump won the presidential election over top rival Hillary Clinton, negative feelings on both sides have not yet dissipated. “All I saw was ‘road to 270, ‘ I never heard ‘road to the popular vote'”.
Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook placed the blame for his candidate’s defeat on FBI Director James Comey, who sent letters to Congress in the waning days of the campaign related to his agency’s examination of Clinton’s email accounts.
It was a bitter campaign and clearly the bitterness hasn’t faded for some members of the Clinton camp. Conway retorted to the Democratic presidential nominee’s team.
David Bossie, Trump’s deputy campaign manager, condemned the statement – and boasted about the real estate mogul’s “unique ability to go past the media and speak directly to the American people”.
