Daily Wire "Failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said during a leadership conference this week that her chances of winning the 2016 presidential election were hurt because she was a capitalist.
"Clinton, who made the remarks at the Shared Value Leadership Summit, said that being a capitalist hurt her because so many Democrats are "socialists."
" 'You may be the only presidential candidate since World War II that actually had to stand up and say, 'I am a capitalist.' And you did. Did it hurt you?" asked Alan Murray, who is the Chief Content Officer for Time Inc.
" 'Probably," Clinton replied. "It's hard to know, but if you're in the Iowa Caucuses and 41 percent of Democrats are socialists or self-described socialists, and I'm asked, 'Are you a capitalist,' and I say, 'Yes, but with appropriate regulation, appropriate accountability,' you know, that probably gets lost in, 'Oh, my gosh, she's a capitalist!'"
HELPFUL: In which Hillary Clinton admits the Democratic Party is loaded with socialists… "I’d never defend socialists, BUT — socialists in the Dem Party weren’t the reason she didn’t go to Wisconsin. But add “I’m a capitalist” to Hillary’s super long list of reasons she lost."

. . . "She has laid blame on numerous factors for her eventual general election defeat at the hands of President Donald Trump, Sanders and his diehard supporters among them. Sanders ripped Clinton as beholden to Wall Street interests during the primary, and she wrote his attacks did "lasting damage" to her.
"Clinton also criticized Sanders as unrealistic in his policies and for essentially offering voters a bill of goods." . . .
