HRC is playing a politically detrimental game long term at this point. Politicians do each other like this all the time. "No permanent allies, only permanent interests" as the saying goes. They'll make up and move on to the next political fight.
Out in the country however, where constituencies tend to focus in only periodically, IMO she's done longterm damage to the "Clinton" brand name vis-a-vis Black America. People can respect, and at one time applaud, her campaign and how she waged it, but she's had no endgame for a quite a while now.
Going forward, I think HRC's future ability to attract AfAm votes (nationally) is pretty much nil at this point.
