Some Choice Quotes from Hillary Clinton's Book About Collapsing In the Street (And Also, Losing a Presidential Election)

This person has collected some quotes from Hillary Clinton's book, called Dude, Where's My Shoe?.

I'll post some of the awfulness below.

For the TL;DR crowd, here's one of the worst passages:

"Absolution?"

Here is some more of her horribleness, with criticism from a reader.

The quote to set the mood:

On the pain of being awful:

What about all that sweet, sweet chardonnay?

In which the credentials of Hillary's ghostwriter are questioned:

In which Hillary continues trying to peddle her "sunny, optimistic" campaign message, at the same time she impugns America as a racist, sexist nation of deplorables:

Here Hillary claims that she would not go near the "politics of resentment," despite the fact she ran what even 538 called the most negative campaign in American history, and also ran almost exclusively on identity politics resentment at Straight White Men:

Hillary continues nursing old grudges here -- as they say of the bitter and the foolish, "She has forgotten nothing and she has learned nothing."

Here she continues pandering to her Identity Politics Resentment base:

I'm skipping a lot, but you should know that this book is a puddle of hyperemotive wallowing. It's still All About Her. Here, for example:

You have to click on both parts of this quote-box:

Hillary really likes talking about drinking. I always think this is sort of Red Flag. Before someone is willing to admit she has a problem:

Here she extols the virtues of one-notril breathing, before getting right back to extolling the virtues of alcohol:

More about the Healing Power of Alcoholism:

Oh and of course she retreated to the Progressive Electronic Safe Space -- namely, the television, and binge-watching Quality Shows:

It's all very sad and maudlin and emotive and blame-shifting and she still seems to think it's all about her.

Corrected: An earlier draft of this identified "KateReadsBooks" as a Hillary supporter. I thought that based on one bit of commentary she added, which I realized was ambiguous and that I'd probably misread it.

I deleted all references to her being a Hillary supporter -- except one, which I'd missed.

I just deleted that now.

Anyway, apologies for that goof. I tried to take those claims out, which I realized must be wrong as I read more of her commentary, but missed one of them.

Update: CBD tells me her patreon page describes her as a "leftist." Yeah, I kinda got the feeling that she was a pissed-off leftist, but I wasn't sure, so I didn't want to say anything about it either way.
