Hillary Clinton is revealing new details about the painful final hours of the 2016 presidential campaign, saying she “was numb” as she called Donald Trump to concede the election.

The former first lady and secretary of state said she took a nap as the voting tallies were coming in, and that the "mood in the hotel had darkened considerably” when she woke back up, according to a copy of her forthcoming book “What Happened” that was viewed by CNN.

In those tense moments, her husband Bill Clinton was “chomping on an unlit cigar,” and that when it became clear that Trump was going to win, former President Barack Obama pushed her to concede and to not drag out the race. She said her call with Trump was "without a doubt one of the strangest moments of my life."

"I congratulated Trump and offered to do anything I could to make sure the transition was smooth," she writes, according to CNN. "It was all perfectly nice and weirdly ordinary, like calling a neighbor to say you can't make it to his barbecue. It was mercifully brief ... I was numb. It was all so shocking."

1. She won the election. The votes in those 4 states were tampered with,

at a minimum hundreds of thousands of would be democratic party voters were prevented from voting due to KGB hacking.

We are in the middle of a violent coup, the bodies arent staking up yet, yet.
