So sure of a Hillary win, her aides stuck around through thick and thin amid the surmounting Clinton debacles.
There was of course a Big Payoff.... astronomical paychecks, perks, pensions, power and influence ....all of it entitlements the self-absorbed groupies felt were theirs.
She was not supposed to lose. The billionaire Clintons had bought and paid for everything in sight including the media, foreign influence, voting blocs.....you name it, they bought it.
It does explain the inexplicable....why Hillary could actually disdain Americans and call them deplorable.
These same derided people voted for Trump.
SCHADENFREUDE!
You’ve nothing to fear from the devil unless you’ve sold your soul to him.
Gotta love it, dontcha.
Hillary in a nutshell. And I mean nutshell.
Bingo!
Vile and petty, nothing like humiliating one of loyalists. Bullet dodged.
It’s interesting that these staffers wanted the Clintons’ approval so much that they would take this abuse without giving some back. What type of person could experience what these criminals were really like, and still want them to be President? It’s almost as if the Clintons surround themselves with very weak people. The sort who would leak damaging e-mails to get back at their abusers.
She never had a chance in fly over country. Did you see the one picture that made in onto the internet from Williamson, WV? That along with the anecdotal info around Pittsburgh told me months before the actual election that Hillary was dead.
rofl, both Clintons blaming the campaign staff for Shrillary’s own failings, this is hilarious.
Why not just recognize that the candidate sucked?
If Hillary had not married the scumbag Bill Clinton she’d have spent her life as an obscure lawyer in some NGO. She is not “presidential material.”
Imagine if she had become President.
..............campaign in flyover country, and her refusal ended up turning off way too many voters.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You don’t subscribe to the theory that every campaign appearance harmed her rather than helped her?
Anybody who would work for Hillary Clinton is a masochist.
Hence my mention of the 1992 Presidential campaign of her husband. Bill Clinton realized that the campaign MUST appeal to "flyover country" voters, and worked closely with both Begala and Carville to make sure it was that way.
Hillary's total arrogance in dependence on the "bluest states"--essentially the US West Coast, the Northeast, Minnesota and Illinois--did her in. This is why the Founding Fathers created the Electoral College--they wanted to make sure even the smaller population states had an important say in the Presidential election.
Clinton failed because nobody likes her.
There are lots of reasons why Hillary lost, but I can narrow it down to two:
1) Hillary. She was a horrible candidate who didn’t have a cohesive message, was hiding an illness, and expected people to vote for her simply because it was her turn/time. That’s not a winning message.
2) Barack Hussein Obama. Eight years of poor job growth, escalating racial tensions, the rise of ISIS, etc., did no favors for Mrs. Clinton. But her real problem was how the Dems set up the rules in 2007 when Obama was running for President. ANYONE who challenged him, on anything, was branded a racist - and that went for Hillary, too. That rule was still in effect in 2016 and really destroyed any chance she had of winning the Presidency. Instead of being honest and telling the American people how crappy things were (as Trump was doing), she had to make out like everything was coming up roses. Obama and his narcissism did her no favors.
“the biggest damage was done by her health.”
My take is her poor health helped her In two ways.
First, the more people get to know Hillary, the less they like her. Her heath reduced her exposure which I think actually helped her.
Second, the health problems, which she hid fairly well, helped take the focus off her record, other issues, and perhaps garnish her some sympathy.
All progressives are like that. No personal responsibility, no self actualization.
Exactly — Out of the public eye, Hillary is like Hitler at Nuremberg. I also thought of Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu, Romanian dictators, and the book about them titled “Kiss the Hand You Cannot Bite”. The Clintons chew out their staffers because they can. They try to project how nice and caring they are, but would devour us all given the opportunity.
The fact is, this was obvious from ANYONE who was paying attention to the election cycle; HOWEVER, the media was too busy trying to tell you that the Republicans were splintered and could never win because they don’t have too much bickering, etc...
