Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer had choice words for Hillary Clinton in an interview over the weekend, blasting the Democratic presidential nominee for blaming Russia for her loss to now-President Trump -- who picked up on the jab in a Monday morning tweet.
“When you lose to somebody who has a 40 percent popularity, you don’t blame other things -- Comey, Russia -- you blame yourself,” Schumer told the Washington Post. “So what did we do wrong? People didn’t know what we stood for, just that we were against Trump. And still believe that.”
Schumer, D-N.Y., was referring to comments Clinton has made tying her November election loss to multiple factors -- including former FBI Director James Comey’s decision to re-open the investigation into her private email server as well as the email hack of her campaign chairman's account.
The president echoed Schumer’s comments on Twitter early Monday, using them to suggest the probes of Russian meddling in the election and possible coordination with his associates are going nowhere.
“After 1 year of investigation with Zero evidence being found, Chuck Schumer just stated that ‘Democrats should blame ourselves, not Russia,'” he wrote.
Back in May, Clinton said she would take “absolute personal responsibility” for losing presidential campaign -- but went on to blame Comey and Russian interference.
She also mentioned WikiLeaks, the antisecrecy website which some analysts believe to be connected to Russia and which posted the hacked emails of Clinton Campaign Chairman John Podesta.
“I was on the way to winning until a combination of Jim Comey’s letter on October 28 and Russian WikiLeaks raised doubts in the minds of people who were inclined to vote for me but were scared off,” Clinton said at the Women for Women International luncheon in May.
She added: "If the election were on October 27, I'd be your president."The botheads STILL don't
GET IT......... goodness me.
Even Chuckie is finally tossing off the lead brick Clinton baggage, bout time, eh boy.

You know, the ones botheads label with all sorts of negativity
Chuckie, as you stated, hag lost to a chump, the Bern woulda prolly won.
An old man of no reputation, to his benefit, that SHOULD tell you something....
Its NOT Trump, but ANYBODY else but you guys who brought us on the clusterfruck.
You understand now Chuckie?
The repubs are sackless nobodies scared of their own shadows....
They couldn't ever buck the status quo, but you guys are stuck with the dictates of Hollywood and New York elitism, how about some real life folk getting a chance?
PS: Chuck, show me you have a set.....
Please get rid of the San Francisco mummy.....
Nancy shoulda been playing with her clapper years ago, like, " HELP.....I HAVEN'T HAD A VIABLE IDEA IN YEARS AND CAN"T GET ONE."
Her matriarch appointment of herself, over MY PARTY, has steered it away from blue collars for decades now......
I really don't care that much about where to pee, where to stick it, or how to dress, for remember when it first became an issue to confront the draconian laws of sexual issues, do you?
Our argument was it belongs in the bedroom, where consenting adults have the FREEDOM to behave as they please.....
Its where it should still be, between folks, not forced upon anyone in the public arena, with a new twist, instead of using morals as reasons, we now use tolerance, to force folks to their will.
GET RID OF HER.......NOW!
