Hillary Clinton urges Democrats to ‘do a better job’ of telling voters of successes
The Guardian ^ | April 3, 2022

Hillary Clinton has called on Democrats “to do a better job” of selling themselves to America’s voters to avoid humiliation in this year’s midterm elections where Republicans are widely expected to perform strongly and likely grab control of Congress.

The former Democratic presidential candidate was speaking frankly on NBC’s Meet the Press on Sunday, saying she thought last summer’s chaotic US withdrawal from Afghanistan was harmful to Joe Biden. The US president’s approval ratings have slumped in recent weeks to the lowest level since he took office.

“I don’t think it helped, that is obviously the case,” Clinton, the former New York senator and secretary of state, told host Chuck Todd when asked if she thought Biden’s political troubles started with Afghanistan.

“But there are a lot of good accomplishments to be putting up on the board. And the Democrats in office and out need to be doing a better job of making the case.”

“The best politics is doing the best job that you can do. And there’s a lot that Democrats can talk about in these upcoming midterms. We’ve got a great story to tell. And we need to get out there and do a better job of telling it.”

Clinton believes that Democrats are holding themselves back by constant introspection, which she said was “always the chorus in Democratic party politics.”

“Hand wringing is part of the Democratic DNA. That seems to be in style whether we’re in or out of power. We’re in power and there still is hand wringing going on,” she said.

Wow. I have to admit though, any voter that stupid enough to even think of voting for a Democrat is going to easily buy in to the concept that the democrats are doing things right and just not selling themselves correctly.

Easily.

Lie more. Make stuff up. Say bad things about Republicans. As long as they can’t be disproved, they’re true for all intents and purposes.

Democrat successes hurt people and make the leftist elites emboldened and wealthier. They should just continue keeping their mouths shut.

And letting people dangle from air transports and then plunge to their deaths. They could show the footage to demonstrate the success of their Afghan operations.

The only things Demonicrats, like Hellary, have been successful at are lies, murder, and treason.
