Schumer: Dems, not Russia, are to blame for loss to TrumpThe Hill, Jul 22, 2017, Aida Chavez
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) says that Democrats, not Russia, are to blame for Hillary Clinton’s loss to President Trump.
“When you lose to somebody who has 40 percent popularity, you don’t blame other things - [James] Comey, Russia - you blame yourself,” Schumer said in an interview Saturday with 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.”
