Clinton concedes she 'missed a few chances' in the 2016 campaign

Hillary Clinton is on the interview circuit to promote her new book, What Happened, which reflects on her loss in the 2016 election. Clinton's first broadcast appearance will air on CBS Sunday, and advance excerpts see the former secretary of state conceding she might have "missed a few chances" in her campaign.

Addressing President Trump's debate tactic of looming into her personal space — "It was so discombobulating" — Clinton praised her own composure, but noted that failing to more boldly repudiate Trump did not serve her well. What Happened will be released Tuesday. Watch two clips of the CBS interview below. Bonnie Kristian
