'What Happened,' Hillary Clinton? You Happened! (By Leslie Wimes, President of Women on the Move and the Democratic African American Women Caucus(

A growing number of black people didn't like her: 209,000 black voters in Florida alone decided to tap out in 2016 rather than vote for her. That number alone would have won Florida for her. Calling out Republican racism wasn't going to win it for her. We look at the racism in this country right now. The degree we see didn't just pop up. It was always here. And yet America chose a black man over Hillary Clinton in 2008. Now that we see how Donald Trump is governing, people ask those who voted third party or not all, "Don't you wish you had voted for her?" It wasn't about Trump for them. Hillary was the poison, and they weren't drinking it. White women voted for Trump. This should have been a demographic that Clinton owned. She didn't. She claims these women didn't vote for her because their men told them not to, as if they can't think for themselves. How disrespectful. How misogynistic. This "what happened" book is an example of why she didn't get elected. She truly feels the presidency was her birthright. The people felt differently. I have to wonder if Clinton has been back to Flint, Michigan. They could still use her help. I have to wonder if Clinton still cares about all the unarmed black men who are getting killed. I see a tweet here and there, but the photo ops have stopped.
