I always like hearing Hillary Clinton speaking about policy. Unfortunately, she didn't do it enough in 2016. She was more focused on talking about Donald Trump. That was disappointing to me because I think she had some good policy ideas. Also, I don't like it when she tries to blame Bernie Sanders for her defeat. I know the primary was very frustrating for her, Bernie was a tough opponent and wasn't always nice to her. But she needs to take responsibility too. As soon as he lost the Democratic primary, Bernie Sanders fully supported Hillary Clinton and campaigned for her until the last day, so he did his job.

[@telanos2492]

One year after the fact, and its amazing how much visceral hatred for Hillary still remains, and the extent to which it colours popular perception. She's written a book exploring "what happened", which, no matter how you slice it, will mean looking at the reasons why she lost. Being able to reflect on that experience, mistakes and all - and learn from it is pretty important for anyone to be able to do. You won't get far in life if you can't do this. But slather this with kneejerk hatred and it suddenly becomes entirely a blame game! I mean, it takes a deep plunge into the the pit of 'alternative facts' to be able to watch this interview and come away with the conclusion that Hillary is simply doling out blame. And yet, here we are. I say this as an international observer - someone who hasn't been caught up with the hyper-partisanship and tribalism that is clearly afflicting many Americans - you guys need to take a step back and have a good look at yourselves and what you're becoming. What you've already become. When you can't tell fact from fiction at the most basic levels - when your prejudices are affecting your judgement to this extent, something has gone seriously wrong. And as alarming as this is - and it should be alarming to just about everyone - it appears like a huge segment of both media and laypeople (as evidenced in the comment section here) alike are clearly more interested in indulging in their hatred and self satisfied criticism, than giving any thought to the content of the discussion.

[@kelvinlim2550]

As a non-American, this was one of the most enlightening and thoughtful conversations I have heard from Hillary. Juxtaposing the flurry of negative comments, one could understand why it was such an uphill battle for her in the 2016 election. It almost seems as if nuanced and pragmatic deliberation of policy development and execution never stood the chance of trumping catchy soundbites. Americans, you really got what you deserved. And that is why America would never be great again.

[@mycenth22]

FAYMprod And like socialized medicine like Medicaid/Medicare... Those are social services... And lest we forget SSI which a lot of our elderly depend on. So yeah some things work. But Sanders wants to universalize minimum wage. Okay. Not a bad idea - a $15 minimum wage for entry level jobs with little to no school... So people working at entry level positions will not need an opportunity to advance their position, or is it just to meet the stagnated economy and increased cost of living? What then, if the economy gets worse? Does the minimum wage keep increasing, driving out skilled jobs that other citizens went to school and worked hard to attain. Ok. But what about federalism and the state cost of living. Do Kansas and California have the same cost of living. Where does a $15 wage come from to adequately adjust an individuals needs to survive? HRC wanted to set a minimum $12 wage and let states decide where to push for an increase. A little fairer, a little less government driven. Oh and how would he have achieved this. Would his presidency be an executive order presidency. His party doesn't have Congress - or I should say the party he hijacked doesn't does not have a majority in Congress. So who is working across the aisle to achieve this legislation? See a lot of Bernie supporters favored an executive order styled president that could just wave a pen and issue handouts to open hands. I'm all for progressive legislation, but you can't make your platform on hard liberal ideas and expect the right to follow suit. The road to socialism is always paved with good intentions.

[@mycenth22]

FAYMprod Stronger working class meaning that more are employed, or the ones employed will receive a higher minimum wage. It's obvious you are out of your depth. You fervently follow the ideas of your chosen candidate because they were the loudest, angriest, most logical to you. The "if my argument makes more sense to me it must be infallible" way of thinking. You shun slow but reliable pragmatism in favor of rage. For you rage = right. That's fine.

[@theJaston9]

Why didn't she give interviews like this when she running? This is obviously late in the game to get a look into her contemplative process. We didn't get much insight into this during this campaign. A lot of this is probably the campaign's attempt to make interviews with journalists as infrequent as possible because that would give another opportunity to probe her email investigation. I think was a mistake. She should have early on been more emphatically apologize for her email probe missteps in a full press conference. This would make it old news, leaving journalists with a different set of issues to cover. Her problem was not Donald Trump. The problem is we heard filtered messages crafted by the campaign and were identically repeated at each rally, meaning the campaign kept trying to recycle the same old news that news outlets treated as such. And for the record she really needs to understand that, yes- people do care about immigration - in has been a hallmark of the Democratic Party's abandonment of working class citizens whom they used to be the strongest advocates. It's citizens you are elected to represent, not the non-electorate. And lastly come to sense with money in politics. Democrats raked in the corporate contributions this past election, so do they really believe in campaign finance reform- the notion of crafting a constitutional amendment to address the Citizens United issue?

[@brianmichaels5112]

She makes so so much sense. Common sense. It’s not complicated it’s sensible talk. I love how she is just as passionate about affordable health now as she was in 93 when as First Lady she headed the Clinton health care reform. Back then by he haters said oh “ it’s a power move to show how powerful she is in the administration she doesn’t really care”. But I’m retrospect she has been advocating for some form of affordable health care since the 80’s when she was a law partner / First Lady of Arkansas. Love her

[@GEOFFREYGIULIANO]

[@FAYMprod]

HelloKittyFan 26 "You can't get rich in politics unless you're a crook." Harry S. Truman. civil servants should always choose people over profits but for the last 40ish years they don't. wall st. incentivizes corporations to globally exploit labor and the planet and our Congress and so-called progressive leaders like Clinton are complicit. Her husband tho is beyond complicit - his deregulations and pacts like NAFTA are directly responsible for growing income inequality. today the 1% control historically the most wealth they have since the Gilded Age.

She's more than 60 probably and still so fluently speaking..... Smart

One of my favorite one on one post election interviews with HRC. Clear, concise and informative. If we could have had more interviews like this pre-election (and eliminated the hysterical-Republican noise swirling around her campaign) she would have won. HRC was the right candidate for the job. Hillary dedicated much of her adult life to public service, but was looked down upon for it & raked over the coals to a degree that no other candidate was subjected to. Instead, the media (& many of you) chose to chase after the Trump circus-on-wheels under the guise of wanting to "bring change to the system" or just blow the "establishment" to smithereens when in fact, ironically, many of us are pragmatists in real life. Instead of treating the election seriously, people ran after sensationalized stories that had little truths to them. Politicians should not be here to entertain us. Focus instead on public service - you know, the job they were "hired" to do. This lack in pride in one's work has seemed to permeate so many fields of work that it is now acceptable to focus on entertainment at work instead of doing the work! The people who actually care about their craft are looked at as if they are the crazy ones. Sickening. I wish I had the patience and hope that HRC has, but unfortunately I have a very low tolerance for BS.

[@FruitOfTheSpirit]

00inwiththenew00 "but unfortunately I have a very low tolerance for BS." Then how did you make it through this entire interview?

[@-mw.]

Legitimately, I'm curious, not even trolling. Where in the interview is she BSing?

[@FruitOfTheSpirit]

michael woodham On the issue of getting money out of politics... 29:41 "If Democrats unilaterally disarm and say, 'Well, you know, we're holier than Caesar's wife, and we won't say or do anything that will raise a question...' -- there is *no compunction* on the other side. And there *is such an imbalance right now* in our politics in the amount of money that's on the other side..." *Total Money Raised 2016 Presidential* Democrats: $800,059,726 Republicans: $647,632,718 *Total Money Raised 2018 House/Senate* Democrats: $235,810,173 Republicans: $180,786,709 (Source: www.opensecrets.org/overview/ ) She clearly does not care about the accuracy of anything coming out of her mouth.

This is, without a doubt, the most researched political interview I've ever seen. Ezra, your questions to Secretary Clinton were well thought out and intentional. This is the kind of interview the world should see. Though I am a strong Bernie Sanders supporter, I appreciate the issues brought to life here. Well done.

Stephanie Webb: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

As someone who cares about my political party, please for the love of goodness PLEASE stop giving this lady a platform or interviews or even showing her face anywhere.

[@bobbypendragon7375]

I had my share of doubts about Hillary during the campaign, though I did my part in voting for her. The *intense* hatred so many have for her, though, is odd.

[@AndreTheAstronaut]

nobody in the comments watched the video, i guarantee it

[@mbaustin100]

I’m watching this interview in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. Of the many things I admired of HRC during the 2016 election was how she handled crises whiting her campaign. Many of the things she talked about in this interview are become a strong per selling point for 2020 election. Politically speaking, I hope we don’t let the presumptive nominee of the dems down. He have to unite because now, during this pandemic, Americans have lost their healthcare, jobs, homes, and many more things.

[@Beautiful_Blue_Robin]

Ezra - you did a great job interviewing

[@SaminHam]

@Susan Because he’s a normal, well adjusted adult?

[@SaminHam]

@Mata if you believe punching people in the face is an acceptable way to interact with your fellow man, you’re a psychopath and should be given a timeout from society. Believe it or not, you can disagree without resorting to violence! Shocking, right? Your parents are partly to blame for your attitude, but you need to take responsibility at this point. Stop being an autistic betafag ;)

[@concong4183]

Jazel de Leon ... The interviewer is afraid of her and with good reason.

[@simetry6477]

She and her husband are like a machine. They never thought of reversing our agreements in China. They signed an agreement with Mexico. Democrats lost a 50 year lock on the house. But sure she prays.

Very interesting to see things from Hillary's point of view. Hats off to Erza Klein for conducting such an amazing interview. If you look at it from an objective view point, Hillary offers a deep insight into her thought process during the campaign.

I think it wasn't just her political realism that was hard to sell but rather her credibility- that she would actually take a stand for (especially) the working class because her character was questioned at any given moment.

I used to wonder why Christopher Hitchens (RIP) was so harsh and revolted by the Clintons. The Primaries fleshed out and consolidated the issues he touched upon. An FBI investigation into her management of State Dept correspondence was, in the end, unsurprising. This Whinge tour is, unsurprising

I can't wait for the day quantum computing gets so advance that we can actually see models of how things would had gone with one candidate or the other, because no one actually knows, maybe we would be better with Hillary instead of Trump, maybe worst, but quantum computing could give us a very important idea of it.

[@tommyodonovan3883]

You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. It's not complicated.... Hilly lost because she was hated/disliked more that Trump.
