Hillary Clinton’s new memoir about the 2016 presidential election, called What Happened, reveals that Trump’s intimidation tactics during the second debate made her “skin [crawl].” She writes: “Well, what would you do? Do you stay calm, keep smiling, and carry on as if he weren’t repeatedly invading your space? Or do you turn, look him in the eye and say loudly and clearly: ‘Back up you creep, get away from me. I know you love to intimidate women, but you can’t intimidate me, so back up.’” Clinton also shares that she regrets “letting down” the American people when she lost the election. “I couldn’t get the job done. And I’ll have to live with that for the rest of my life.”
