I wouldn't have put it that way for public consumption, though, because it will stick needles in the sides of those who voted for Trump and now regret it mightily. They will hate Hillary for reminding them, though, human nature being what it is. Being right is not the same as being sensible, and I would have been more reticent, seeing as how remarks made by anyone anywhere these days are heard halfway around the world ten seconds later. Hillary may have nothing left to lose, but people like Conor Lamb do. I would have chosen my words more carefully, although I can imagine she has been keeping way more than that bottled up inside her for a long time, now.
