‘Hillary’ lands in Sundance — and the 2020 election — like a hand grenade

PARK CITY, Utah — Hillary Clinton threw a hand grenade at the 2020 Democratic presidential primary election Saturday with her new documentary, “Hillary.”

The one-sided, four-part Hulu series about her life premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, and everything you’ve heard is true — Clinton comes off like Rambo when she talks about current Democratic candidate, and former rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders.

In behind-the-scenes footage from the night of the 2016 Iowa caucus, we see Clinton seething over the shocking success of her competitor, whom she sees as little more than a Vermont snake oil salesman. On Feb. 1, Clinton and her team were enraged that Sanders had gotten to within a percent of her victory in the Midwestern state, and sought to deprive the man of even a sentimental victory.

“I just don’t want him to get out there and say the revolution is working, [that] people ‘felt the Bern,’” she says, before quickly leaving the room to beat him to a speech. Clinton adds that she found his socialist proposals unrealistic and phony. “I had people in my campaign say, ‘Just say ‘‘Free college.’’ Millennials love it,’ ” she says. “And I said ‘no.’ ”

Whenever Sanders is onscreen, his underscoring is brooding and villainous, like Darth Vader just took off his helmet for a breather.(snip)

Suddenly magnanimous, Clinton pivoted on that passionate stance Saturday, when an apparent Sanders voter in the Sundance audience took her to task.

“It’s no surprise that you’re not a big fan of Bernie Sanders,” he said. “So what would you say to the Bernie Sanders fans? … Who should they vote for?”

“Once we have a nominee, close ranks,” Clinton responded to loud applause.

“””Clinton adds that she found his socialist proposals unrealistic and phony.”””

“The grift is a far better angle” she went on to say.

Sundance has a carbon footprint larger than a lot of countries.

I have long applied this test for a politician to get my vote:

Would I buy a used car from this candidate?

If the answer is “yes”, I would vote for them, If “no”, could never vote for them.

My test is the media barometer.

If the media hates them, then they get my vote.

Reagan, Palin, Trump/Pence.

She wants to be president. You can be sure she hasn’t been weeping in her beer for the past 3 years. I think she has been plotting what to do during the present election cycle. I think she will use her power and money to become the nominee.

The “impeachment” show was designed to weaken Trump. It’s about getting even with him, and making it harder for him to get votes.

I think the other dems will be forced to quit by the democrat party, and that hillary will be the one.

But bloomberg will fight her.

Imagine going to Park City where you could be enjoying the late January skiing (always have a January thaw there, so the wx is nice) but instead, you went to see a damn movie about Hillary Friggin’ Clinton.

Talk about self torture.

Hillary Clinton is a lying, cheating, bullying, thieving, dirty little snot whose best purpose in life would be serving as a toss-bag for a Cornhole game.

Redrord is drowning in a sea of drool, having named the film as the big winner almost before the screenplay was written. Maybe she’ll reward him with a scratch behind the ears.
