I was a baby at the time, but I doubt that Dick Nixon went to a different conference every day and blamed every demographic group on Earth for his loss to Jack Kennedy.

I visited the Nixon Presidential Library a few days before this past Christmas. Amazing place.

Despite Watergate, he was a far superior president than most of the recent White House occupants. A true statesman, in every way.

She is such a sore loser, of course plenty of people are going to poke fun of her.

He didn’t. He quietly disappeared (as he did after the 1960 election), wrote books, gave an occasional interview and didn’t whine or spew. He wasn’t perfect but he was a MAN - a WWII vet.

She is utterly and completely bereft of the prime Virtue of Humility

“But the near-universal vitriol she confronts is historically unprecedented among candidates who came so close to victory, and all the more galling in light of what we’ve since learned about the role of the Russian government in crippling her campaign.”

The article was excellent and informative until I got to the quote above. I scanned a few paragraphs after that to see if it got more balanced but it got worse.

For more than two years, Republicans did more than demonize her – they criminalized her, first through the Benghazi hearings (a congressional boondoggle if ever there was one), and later, by representing her use of a personal email server – a politically unwise blatantly lawless decision but one that which would have resulted in not a single felony or misdemeanor charges serious jail time for anyone without Hillary's clout in the Journalcrat Party and a corrupt Justice Department.

Every anti-Communist like Nixon was proven right by history, ironically the vote cheating that cost him in '60 didn't put Mme. Bobblehead over the top this go-round. It's vitally important for Trump to rectify voting and audit all the dead, felon, illegal alien (D) votes of which the shameless Hillary Jill Stein recount only showed us the tip of the polluted iceberg - the "Hillary got more votes" meme needs to be put to bed for many reasons especially keep her from a Nixonian comeback

As an intern, Hillary was dismissed for lying.
She was a shady lawyer, a corrupt first lady in both Arkansas and DC, an inconsequential Senator, and an incompetent and corrupt Secretary of State.
She cheated her opponent to get the Democrat Presidential Nomination.

The thing I don’t understand is why ANYONE considered voting for her.

She has earned that and she deserves that. Evil should be hated.

The word loser fits very nicely when describing Hillary Clinton. Especially in regards to history.

In the Bible, the Apostle John wrote, “We loved Him because He first loved us.” The opposite is also true. We tend to hate people who first hated us. Both Hillary and Obama never even bothered to conceal their disdain for Americans. So a lot of Americans responded in kind.
