Clinton: There are ‘lots of questions’ about legitimacy of Trump’s election The Hill Julia Manchester 2 hrs ago © Provided by The Hill "The forces at work outside of my campaign are not going away," Hillary Clinton reportedly told Mother Jones. Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton says there are still a number of questions surrounding the legitimacy of the 2016 presidential election due to Russian interference in the race. "I think there are lots of questions about (the election's) legitimacy and we don't have a method for contesting that in our system. That's why I've long advocated for an independent commission to get to the bottom of what happened," Clinton told Mother Jones in an interview published Friday. "This is the first time we've ever been attacked by a foreign adversary, and then they suffer no real consequences, and so I'm worried that we're not learning all of the lessons," she continued. "The forces at work outside of my campaign are not going away. Somebody else is going to be running for Congress or governor or eventually president. We've got to know how to protect ourselves." "I think as we learn more about it, we know that the web of connections between people on Trump's team and Russian representatives just gets more dense," she added. Clinton's comments come as federal and congressional probes into alleged ties between the Trump campaign and Russian election meddling make headway. The probes have focused on the roles played by social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube to spread false information on the internet aimed at misinforming voters. Special Counsel Robert Mueller announced last month that former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and his business associate Rick Gates had been indicted on charges of conspiracy against the United States, tax fraud and money laundering. Mueller also announced that former Trump campaign policy adviser George Papadopoulos pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian officials during the campaign. Papadopoulos offered to set up a meeting between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin during the campaign, which goes against Donald Trump's and Attorney General Jeff Sessions' original claims that they had never discussed meetings with Russian officials. Poster Comment: The questions are only in the mind of Billary. She refuses to accept the outcome of the race and is grasping at straws to try and find a way to nullify it. Too late, the election has already been certified by Congress.

The only question I have is why isn't she already sporting an orange jumpsuit.
Not too sure. But you know the reason Vince Foster was found dead in his car at Ft. Marcy Park? He refused to go along with the Clinton Foundation, and that was a mortal sin for the guy that grew up with Bubba. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one."

That nasty BBB should wonder why so long ago the Founding Fathers anticipated the eventual coming of such a being and prepared for it. In case you not know, BBB stands for...BROAD BY BIRTH...
The Founders were wise beyond comprehension and their experience from life's trials and tribulations were why they were so. ;)

I agree with you on this. Hamilton was a co-author of the Federalist Papers, along with James Madison and John Jay. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
