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.”

Of course, she’s lying in traditional Clinton style. No child would touch that garbage.

From “What books are on your shelf?”

Chelsea: (blah blah blah)... “I don’t want even the most realistically rendered stories to intrude on my lived, quotidian reality.”

LOL. Deliver us from the pompous elite. I admit I had to look up quotidian, though.

After she noted a slew of things she is reading, I noted that the Bible was not among them.

“But the repeated insistence that Chelsea Clinton is fascinating”

As her “possible father” would say, “It depends on your definition of “fascinating!”
Personally, she is an amalgamation of the two biggest political criminals of modern America, and that’s providing the Slick is actually her father.

Damn it I DETEST those frikking things that stick out of people’s nostrils.

Followed closely by those big circular things people put in their ear lobes. Those I can live with.

Those nose things should be pulled out with pliers, IMO.

She appears to be as mentally astute as...Caroline Kennedy.

Perhaps she was being fed fare from Michelle Obama’s school lunch menus...

The one positive thing have to say about Bill was that he will willing to sell out the left when it benefited him.

I don’t think his daughter is smart enough to recognize a beneficial sell out opportunity.

Sorry to say, but a Caroline Kennedy / Chelsea Clinton Ticket would probably get the same number of Votes as Hillary just did.

That is how bad Liberalism has infected this Country.

One of the things that always stuck with me was her characterization of the Secret Service as "trained pigs".

When the Secret Service agent in charge of her heard her say it, she called her on it and said "How would your parents feel if they heard you say that?"

Chelsea said: "I don't think they would mind. That's what they call you."

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.

It still frosts me that Corzine got away with paying a pocket-change fine. The traders proprietary accounts that were supposed to be segregated from the firm trading were raided for his own benefit and he lost YUGE, but not in his account. I know several traders who have not received a fraction of their funds back.

Lock him up!

Be a mother and raise your daughter, Chelsea.

You have a chance to break the cycle of your mother's neglect.
