John Kerry has suggested that Hillary Clinton contributed to her own downfall in the 2016 presidential election by encouraging the Russians to hack America.
The former Secretary of State said that Russian President Vladimir Putin told him he was 'incensed' by a speech Clinton gave in 2014 comparing him to Hitler.
Kerry said Clinton's comments made Putin feel he was under attack and that interfering in the US election was a way to even the score with America.
In an interview at the New York City BookExpo, Kerry also praised President Donald Trump and said that he would 'applaud' his engagement with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

WNU Editor: When Hillary Clinton made the remark comparing Putin to Hitler, I predicted in 2014 that she has just earned an enemy for life, and there was going to be blow-back .... Hillary Clinton Compares Russian President Putin And Russia To Hitler And The Nazis (March 5, 2014). And while she did try to walk back her comments a day later, it was already too late .... Former Secretary of State Clinton Walks Back On Putin Nazi Comparison (March 6, 2014). Doubly so when I re-read the comment that I made at the time ....
.... Someone must have told her that if she wants to hold a high office again in the future .... even President .... comments like that will have consequences. Saul Alinsky tactics of demonizing your opponents on a national level is one thing .... but doing it on on an international level can be very dangerous .... hence it must be done very carefully.
And now 4 years later .... everything has been confirmed .... and from John Kerry of all people.
