Hillary Clinton on Wednesday blamed deep cooperation between Donald Trump and Russia for her loss and said she hopes investigators will quickly connect the dots that show Trump's culpability.
She admitted that during the campaign, people rejected her and her team's assessment that Russia was working with Trump to hand Trump the White House, but that she was dismissed.
Clinton said based on what she's seen so far, she is "leaning Trump" when it comes to who was to blame for her election loss.
"I think it's pretty hard not to," she said. "I think the marriage of the domestic fake news operations, the domestic RNC Republican-allied data, you know, combined with the very effective capabilities that the Russians brought, you know, basically, the group running this was the GRU, which is the military intelligence arm of the Russian military, and they have a very sophisticated cyber operation."
"In bed with WikiLeaks, in bed with Guccifer, in bed with DCLeaks, and you know, DCLeaks and Guccifer which were dropping a lot of this stuff on me, they haven't done anything since early January," she said. "So, I mean, their job was done. They got their job done."
"I believe that what was happening to me was unprecedented," she added.

Do you have a link to a transcript or video of her saying this? The article you posted has no reference links.
Not saying I doubt it, but anything without referenced sources I doubt.

ETA: They had this video at the top of the article, which was its own kind of hell to watch, but the video was not what the article was talking about.

Trump is the reason you lost, Hillary. That's because he was better than you. That's how elections work.

So, lets break it down and see who is still remaining that can be blamed for her loss.
1. It was Comey - check (1 person)
2. It was the Russians - check (144 million people)
3. It was Pepe - check (1 meme)
4. It was the deplorables. (66-67 million people)
5. It was the fake news media. (ehhh - lets call it 2000 people)
6. It was Wikileaks. (200 people)
This is a total of a littler over 200 million people and there are 7 billion in the world therefore theres a #-load more blamin' to do yet before she gets it right.
Wow. Clinton on @DNC: "I inherited nothing from the party. It was bankrupt... its data was mediocre to poor, non existent, wrong.
