Hillary Clinton is Trying Really Hard to Make You Think She’s Okay
Heat Street ^ | April 11, 2017 | Emily Zanotti

Hillary Clinton is enjoying retirement. Really enjoying retirement.

I mean, really enjoying retirement.

Or, at least, that’s what Hillary Clinton wants you to think. Over the past week, since she’s crawled out from the woods near her Chappaqua home to rejoin society, Clinton has been so visible, you almost forget she suffered a major electoral defeat just a few short months ago, and is now forced to watch while her opponent, a real estate mogul turned reality television star turned politician, handles the job she wanted.

Clinton lost the election, we now know, largely because she was unable to convince Rust Belt voters that she was interested in taking their concerns seriously, preferring instead to focus on identity politics. In the wake of her loss, she seems unable to process that voters just simply didn’t like her, has embraced her celebrity side, and doubled down on her claim that she lost because she was a woman.

Just last week, Clinton claimed that sexism among voters was her biggest challenge, and struck hard at President Trump, on the apparent theory that she might have handled foreign policy entanglements better.

She’s hammered away at claims that she couldn’t have won the presidential election because of internalized prejudice, patriarchal tendencies and all-out bigotry, but seems to forget her campaign outspent Trump by more than $300 million, and couldn’t even lock down Florida.

Fortunately for Clinton, though, there are plenty of opportunities to live a fantasy, and plenty of celebrities willing to indulge her self-delusion.

These last two weeks alone, Clinton has been extremely visible, in an effort to prove she’s fine with her new lot in life as a political commentator and feminist icon. She debuted a new haircut that everyone seems to be afraid to tell her looks a little like she sat out in the rain too long.

Not to mention, it’s so cliche to get bangs after you’ve been through a devastating life event. They even call that haircut, “breakup bangs.”

For her first appearance out of the gate, Clinton didn’t choose a subtle-yet-striking number designed to help you understand that she still values looking good even though she’s struggling to get out of bed in the morning. She chose a too-small, wide-lapel leather blazer that made her look like she was recording a stand-up comedy special for network television sometime in the vicinity of 1996.

More recently, Clinton has shown up to red carpet events wearing Katy Perry-designed namesake acrylic heel pumps ($175, if you’re using Hillary as your fashion icon), and has appeared at so many Broadway show openings people are wondering if she’s homeless and lives in the theater.

It’s all…a lot. It’s okay to mourn, Hillary. Its okay to show up to events in nothing but a stained sweatsuit and dry-shampooed hair for a few months. Heck, Amy Schumer has made a career out of it. All the high-profile brunches and suburban shoe shopping expeditions won’t fill the empty hole you have in your heart. You have to do that for yourself.

Killary hasn’t been OK since NASA (pffft, right) rejected her application to be an astronaut when she was a little girl.

3rd times a charm or will it be three strikes and your out. If the hag runs for the WH again the election will be so rigged in her favor that it could result in another civil war.

Had Hillary won the election and been inaugurated, she would be dead by now. She would be found keeled over atop her desk in the Oval Office or sprawled on the floor or she would have collapsed at some public function.

Trump is about a year ahead of her in age. His health is by all accounts robust, frenetic, and excellent. Barring some unforeseen circumstance, he will likely be in just as good a health after eight years.

Hillary Clinton is merely an old woman. Old before her time. Almost as if something has eaten within her, sapped away her vitality and whatever beauty she had.

She would not have survived this far into her first term, much less four or eight years. Not in a position as stressful and strenuous as President of the United States.

President Trump doesn’t drink, smoke or use drugs. There’s the difference.

I do not care. She needs to get lost.

Nothing worse than a Hillary who has been defeated and blames everyone else unable to see what a awful clown she is.

Is it possible there is a body double doing public appearances.

Hillary was not a well woman. Add in the alcohol addiction and she must be in a bad way

No "as if" about it. A lifetime of lies, deceit, stealing, plotting, scheming and hating has created what she is today…if it weren't for a battery of plastic surgeons, wigmakers and makeup artists, you'd be able to see the real evil witch.

Something has happened to the old bag over the years. Look at pictures of her in say 1992 and today and it’s almost a completely different person. If she had won the presidency she definitely would have had a stroke by this point. I’m hoping she has one soon.
