Chelsea Clinton Is Not the Great Democratic Hope
National Review ^ | March 10, 2017 | Jim Geraghty

Posted on 03/10/2017 7:55:38 AM PST by detective

The media should stop making the former first daughter out to be more than she is.

Chelsea Clinton is not fascinating. But the repeated insistence that Chelsea Clinton is fascinating . . . is actually rather fascinating. It’s like a giant social experiment, in which everyone who has spent decades building connections to the Clinton political dynasty attempts to make the world see the president’s daughter as someone she isn’t.

Witness the recent insistence that we’re seeing a new side of Chelsea Clinton . . . because she’s tweeting a lot of critical things about President Trump. This is not particularly unusual behavior for a Democrat with a Twitter account. Yet Politico declares that she “lets loose on Twitter” with “a spicy, sarcastic online personality.” CNN concurs that “Chelsea Clinton embraces her Twitter sass.”

lol..
I also read about her ‘spinach pancakes’ didn't look at the photo she posted...the description was enough for me

wonder what other ‘creative’ dishes she makes for Marc and the two kids? Her mother never cooked so natural that Chelsea didn't learn how either...

> Yet it’s ok for Chelsea Clinton to be a millionaire because of her hedge fund husband; nothing is said about how he has money. <

Chelsea’s hubby might have money, but his investors don’t. The average investor in his now-defunct Hellenic Opportunity Fund lost 90 cents on the dollar.

Chelsea is your typical libtard female idiot who has no core values except killing the unborn and believing progressive nonense...

They are a dime a dozen on any Manhatten street...

Nothing special about her... but her last name...

"A father who behaved disgracefully while in office"

Webb Hubble was not a disgrace while in office.

Ya good point. His hedge fund lost lots of investor money. Was he ever investigated for that? Seriously, you could take investor money to Las Vegas and gamble freely, and not lose 90%. What the heck did he do??? I do wonder if there was anything illegal done. Given who he is, he may never face consequences.

If I recall correctly, former Democrat NJ Governor Jon Corzine also lost lots of investor money in funds he ran, but nothing ever happened to him. Some people are just allowed to get away with things, sadly.

Bill Clinton is overrated in the first place. A lot of parallels to Obama in terms of seats lost while POTUS and pathetic candidates to compete with him.

And to pile on a bit, why is she still Chelsea Clinton, instead of Chelsea Mezvinsky??????? Hanging on to that Clinton name overrides everything else?????

I can’t wait for the Chelsea Hubbell campaign in 2020—crisscrossing the country delivering her famous, riveting speech on diarrhea.

Chelsea is getting crushed/”pwned” on Twitter with responses to her posts. I’m surprised she still has a twitter account - seriously, somebody should take it away from her for her own protection .... sort of like kids who run with scissors. She’s a dim bulb .... seems to have inherited a lack of shame/conscience from the people who raised her, her mom’s stupidity & sense of entitlement & none of her ‘father’s’ charm (assuming it’s Slick we’re talking about here, not Webb).

Have to wonder how she handles that Web Hubble question and all the other scandals surrounding Bill & Hill. She must have decided to take comfort in the MONEY - like her mother.

He’s much better-looking than his bizarre-looking father.

Wouldn't he be blue then? Don't both of them call us "pinkies"?
