Hillary Clinton Says She ‘Missed a Few Chances’ in Her 2016 Campaign

Hillary Clinton’s new book What Happened pretty much lays it down as to exactly how events unfolded during the 2016 presidential election, and right now she’s making the rounds promoting it.

In a preview of her CBS Sunday Morning interview, she elaborate: “My mind is going, ‘Okay, do I keep my composure? Do I act like a president? Am I the person that people can trust in the end to make hard decisions?,’” she told host Jane Pauley. “Or do I wheel around and say, ‘Get outta my space. Back up, you creep.’ Well, you know, I didn’t do the latter.”

Hillary was referring to the moment Donald Trump hovered over her during the October 2016 debate.

“But I thought, you know, people say, ‘Well, we don’t know her…’ and I think my composure, which I have developed over years being in the public eye, has well equipped me for being a leader, because you should keep your cool and you should be steady and predictable. But I think in this time we’re in, particularly in this campaign, you know, maybe I missed a few chances.”

The full interview airs this Sunday at 9am EST on CBS.
