People have probably forgotten that Clinton had some 30 or 40 thousand Cuban refugees penned up at Guantanamo for years to keep them off of US soil.

And Clinton banned Vietnamese refugees also.

I’d really forgotten all about that.

The State Department, with Hillary Clinton in charge, stopped processing Iraq refugees for six months in 2011.

Oh wait....

Gee, Hillary says she stands with these people, but her fat ass is parked in warm chair in Chappaqua,NY.

She’s not that far from Kennedy Airport.

Her limo can get her there with no problem.

She is not “standing” with anyone.

Next year this time, she can stand in her jail cell in the
federal pen.

If it wasn't for double standards they'd have no standards at all.

It’s not just her hypocrisy.

She paid for violence at Trump protests and then complains about it.

Her campaign worked with Jill Stein’s and her pointless recounts.

Her campaign worked with the Hamilton Electors group to intimidate electors.

Now this.

I’m sick of her sedition.
