LISTEN TO TLRS LATEST PODCAST:

By Kody Fairfield

A political columnist who voted for then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in last years presidential election has some blunt advice for the twice failed presidential candidate after she announced her intentions this week to remain involved in politics, reportsthe Blaze.

Hey, Hillary Clinton, shut the f up and go away already, wrote Gersh Kuntzman, a columnist at the New York Daily News, in a column earlier this week.

I voted for Clinton on Nov. 8 and thought shed be a good president, he explained. But she lost. And she still wants us to feel bad about that. And, worse, shes still blaming everyone else.

Kuntzmans upsettedness appears to be in response to Clintons recent faux acceptanc responsibility for her loss, in which she quickly turn around and blamed misogyny, FBI director James Comey, and anyone else she could.

In his column, titled, Hillary Clinton shouldnt be writing a book she should be drafting a long apology to America, Kuntzman lays out the reasons why Clinton lost the election, despite her failure to admit even one, according tothe Blaze.

Boo hoo, he wrote. Simon & Schuster may want Hillary Clinton to write the history, but Im not about to let her re-write it. No one deserves more blame for the election debacle than Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Kuntzman instead argued that Clinton lost the race for four reasons:her untrustworthiness, a poorly run campaign, her private email server and her Goldman-Sachs speeches.

Remember her fainting spell at the 9/11 ceremony? Remember how long it took for her to tell the truth? Remember how that reminded every voter in America that Hillary Clintons first instinct is to lie?

Just like she did when she claimed she had taken sniper fire during a First Lady trip to Bosnia. Just as she did when she said she never sent classified documents over her private email server.

He wrote of her untrustworthiness.

He explained that upon Clinton claiming that Trumps supporters were a basket of deplorables,the election was was pretty much over.

On the former Secretary of State utilizing a private email server, Kuntzman said:Its basic. The only reason to set up a private email server and delete some of the emails on it is because you want to hide something from the public. Clinton never provided a good answer to the simple question, Why would you do that?

Lastly, Clinton can blame her tight relationship with Wall Street as a reason she lost to Trump, according to Kuntzman, explainedthe Blaze.

You cant be a prostitute on Wall Street and then go to church on Main Street, he wrote.

The American public does not want a book from Hillary Clinton. It wants an abject apology. And it wants it for free. She got what she deserved: She lost, Kuntzman concluded. Now she needs to shut up and go home.

Bill Maher tells ‘liberal purists’ who didn’t support Hillary Clinton: ‘Go fk yourselves’ – Washington Examiner

Liberal political comedian Bill Maher shared a stern message for the "liberal purists" who refused to support Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election: "Go fuck yourselves."

During the Friday episode of his HBO show "Real Time," Maher argued that the first 100 days of President Trump's presidency provides enough evidence to ask liberals who "couldn't bring themselves to vote for Hillary because she was the lesser of two evils."

"Quite a bit lesser, wouldn't you say now?" he added to applause.

Maher explained that this monologue wasn't about "reliving the last election or my great love for Clinton, which never was.

"This is about winning the next election," Maher said. "And that begins with learning the difference between an imperfect friend and a deadly enemy."

Amid a flurry of rhetorical questions, Maher made the point that Clinton as president, in contrast to Trump, wouldn't roll back climate change regulations, wouldn't be Russian President Vladimir Putin's "bitch," and support a healthcare plan to pay for a tax cut for herself.

"Do you really think if just-as-evil Hillary had been elected conservatives would now be in control of the Supreme Court as they will for decades? Just wait until the 5-to-4 decisions start rolling in gutting unions, making it harder for minorities to vote, siding with polluters, overturning abortion rights," Maher said.

"Then maybe you'll join me in saying to the liberal purists: Go fuck yourselves with the locally grown organic cucumber," Maher said.
