For Hillary Clinton, political life has brought a series of trials and tribulations. The repeated embarrassments of her husband’s infidelities. A failed first presidential campaign. The ceaseless – and to her supporters, baseless – investigations into her tenure as the country’s top diplomat.

Clinton didn’t mention any of this during her speech to the black parishioners at a Baptist church here Sunday. But the theme of perseverance was threaded through the remarks she delivered two days after the FBI said it was examining additional emails related to her private email server.

“Suffering produces endurance,” she said, quoting Romans 5:3. “And endurance produces character. And character produces hope.”

As Clinton often does, she traced the lesson of endurance to her mother, who was abandoned by her parents and suffered a difficult childhood....

Crooked Hillary must not believe in an afterlife.

Count it a blessing when you suffer for being a Christian. This shows that God’s glorious Spirit is with you. 15 But you deserve to suffer if you are a murderer, a thief, a crook, or a busybody. 16 Don’t be ashamed to suffer for being a Christian. Praise God that you belong to him.

Oh, poor Hillary! How she has suffered! Perhaps if she hadn’t stolen so much, and lied so much, and drunk so much, and murdered so much, and betrayed her country so often, . . . she might have suffered less! Poor little thing!

That’s funny. Somebody must be short on endurance, because in the character dept., not so much.

All - ALL - of the suffering Illary has had to endure has been the result of her own iniquity. Let her rot and don’t shed a tear.

She wants the FBI to put it all on the table. This from the woman who delayed, lied, destroyed, misrepresented, covered up, threatened and, well, uh, forgot.

Did Hillary make this sermon before or after she downed those two bottles of Jack Daniels?

Just like she whined about being “Dead Broke” while they were paying off women $850,000.

Cry me a river. Never has someone gone so far without any actual accomplishments and never taking responsibility for anything in their entire life.

Everything she touches goes to sh/t.

When tyrants rule, the people groan. When the righteousmrul, the people rejoice.

Heres hoping I can stop groaning for awhile.

I wish the FBI would say, we can’t put it all on the table , but we can tell you that we are looking into Huma being a Muslim Brotherhood Agent and Bill Clinton going to pedophile island.
