Clinton staffers were so sure she would win they reportedly popped champagne on Election Day

Hillary Clinton's aides were so sure she would win that they reportedly popped champagne on the campaign plane on Election Day.

Hours later, instead of becoming the nation's first female president as polls had predicted, Clinton suffered one of the most stunning political defeats in history, and Donald Trump became the new president-elect.

The New York Times reported the champagne element on Saturday, as part of a story that detailed Clinton's comments echoing a memo from her campaign that blamed her shocking loss on FBI Director James Comey.
