Hillary Clinton has unleashed a blazing attack on Donald Trump, accusing the man who beat her in 2016 in the race for the White House of cruelty, negligence, corruption, dishonesty, racism and malevolence that have combined to put democracy in America into crisis.
In an afterword to the new paperback edition of her book on her 2016 presidential election defeat, What Happened, Clinton makes her most excoriating takedown yet of Trump’s character and actions since he took office. The essay, published on Monday by the Atlantic, accuses the sitting president of undermining basic democratic values and positioning himself as a tyrant.
In unconstrained language, Clinton charges her former presidential rival with a raft of traits she suggests is anathema to the healthy workings of democracy. He has shown “unspeakable cruelty” over family separation at the Mexican border; “monstrous neglect” of Puerto Rico that led to almost 3,000 deaths; and of “breathtaking corruption” involving his administration’s conflicts of interest and ethics violations.
“Trump and his cronies do so many despicable things that it can be hard to keep track,” she writes, concluding that “right now, our democracy is in crisis … There are no tanks in the streets. The administration’s malevolence may be constrained on some fronts – for now – by its incompetence. But our democratic institutions and traditions are under siege.”
This is not the first time that the former first lady and two-time presidential candidate has spoken out about Trump. In June she told the Guardian that the president was acting as a dictator might in a “third-world banana republic”; and in July she told a conference in New York that his ambivalent stance on the threat posed by Russian interference in US elections was “deeply disturbing”....

Uh, diseased.
YOUR “democracy” might be in “crisis” but with Americans throwing your ass out in the street during the election, OUR REPUBLIC IS DOING JUST FINE THANK YOU.
The Democrats are threatening it again.
Nice rant.....deserves a repeat.
"Nurse Ratched, prepare for a lobotomy."
Hillary:
Welcome to Loserville.
Population: You!
Har!
Go ahead Hillary, burst a blood vessel. We’ve got our popcorn now.
The skank is right. Their “democracy” is in crisis.
Ours is getting stronger than ever and that is the way the founders intended.
Hillary is such a hoot!
Her demons are screeching, knowing that the sword of God is sending them back to hell.
Is there any scripture to cover what we’re seeing now? Just curious. I’m not a fastidious Bible reader.
What she really is saying “ Oh, God am I in trouble!”.
Bill promised lots of things.
False profits of Baal? She knows it is OVER. Trying to rally her loony followers so she don’t get tanked. She owes lots of people favors and if she dont deliver....gonna get squeezed big time...she might opt for jail...be safer than the streets. Trump could be egging in her debtors to make her accept conviction and jail.
Had she said our “Republic” in crisis she would have been more accurate but still not believable.
Bttt
Feel her pain and agony.....Aaaaaah! Soothing!
Because all of her other blistering attacks have been so successful.
Like socialism: THIS time it will work!
She’s lucky I’m not in charge. If the border is such cruelty, and PR is such monstrous neglect now, she wouldn’t have words to describe what I wouldn’t do...
