Description
The 2016 election was certainly filled with its daily share of surprises. Hillary Clinton ran the most expensive campaign in history and despite the cards being stacked in her favor, the polls showing her winning by a landslide and a strong assumption amongst many that her election was already a given, she lost and lost big.
The shock-waves amongst her followers are still in full motion. Her new book "What Happened" reflects the shock. However, unless you were living in a bubble, you should know what happened. Clinton was living in a bubble of self-entitlement. Her arrogance and smugness were apparent to everyone outside of her bubble. She could not connect with her core base which flocked to Bernie Sanders; an obscure, self-proclaimed socialist.Despite the dirty tricks of the Democratic National Committee and Clinton herself, she never regained the allegiance of her core base. She entered the race with much baggage. Scandals follow the Clinton's and while none have stuck to them, yet the sheer volume of scandals and mysterious deaths associated with those scandals is enough to raise eyebrows of anyone but her diehard supporters. She surrounded herself with people who told her only what they thought she wanted to hear. Either they were inside her bubble or simply did not want to upset her and face her oft reported temper. Many of the people in her inner circle also became subjects of various scandals during the campaign as well. The media fed her delusion as well. Their hatred for the Republican candidate skewed their reporting in her favor through both stories and polls.They also prevented Clinton from glimpsing outside her bubble. This book will help make sense of the 2016 election and the factors that contributed to Clinton's loss. Some things you may already know but others are sure to come to you as a shock.The book is factual but will certainly allow you plenty of room for your own speculation and guidance in finding additional resources. People who actually read this book (Verified Purchase) overwhelmingly loved it. Controversy does bring out trolls though who overwhelmingly gave this book 1 star although they never bought or read the book. Below is a sampling of the reviews from both; the negative ones are worth reading because, well...they are hysterical.
