'To stay silent is to be complicit': Hillary Clinton questions why her former GOP colleagues won't challenge Trump

WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton expressed exasperation Friday with Republicans she previously worked with who have refused to stand up to President Donald Trump and have instead remained silent.(snip)

“I don’t understand what has happened to them,” said Clinton, who added that she keeps looking for a senator like Margaret Chase Smith, a Republican, who stood up to Joe McCarthy.

"When Russians are interfering in our election, when they’re putting bounties on American soldiers, to stay silent is to be complicit,” she said. “That’s what I don’t understand — why do they want their place in history to be tarred by this apology for Trump at every turn or the silence that marks them when they’re asked a tough question.”

Clinton said that the new Senate Intelligence Committee report about Russia, for example, “paints a very clear and damning picture” of representatives of Trump’s campaign in 2016 and representatives of the Russian government who participated in the election interference efforts. She said it’s “troubling” to hear from Trump administration intelligence officials that this foreign meddling is still going on.

Clinton said that other than Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah, and a few others on some Senate votes, there has been “no consistent willingness” for these people to stand up for facts and evidence.(snip)

Clinton said she’s spoken to Joe Biden, now the 2020 Democratic presidential nominee, throughout the campaign about running against Trump. Her advice is that Biden should make sure not to let any attack go unanswered and correct lies being told. She also said that he should be prepared on the debate stage and not get dragged into Trump’s “reality show.”

How funny Hillary doesn’t understand certain things.

Would she understand if someone explained it to her?

“When Russians are interfering in our election, when they’re putting bounties on American soldiers, to stay silent is to be complicit,” she said. “That’s what I don’t understand ........................Yeah, and I still don’t understand why Doughty and Woods were left to die, and why?

LOL! True dat! Butt, as usual, she’s full of crap. There are plenty that try daily to disrupt the work that he’s putting in. Despite obxxx’s admonishment that Trump isn’t “putting in the work” that a president should. As if he would know. Guess that’s one of the new catch phrases the round table brain trusts came up with. Fidiots.

Go **** yourself you fat disgusting Rapist supporting b****

Yes sorry for the language it’s hard when it comes to her

if ever two people needed to be murdered by the government it’s Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Try them and murder them.

God knows what the hell they do with little kids and children. Things we probably can’t even imagine in our worst nightmares.

antifa and BLM shouldn’t be on the streets destroying homes and businesses and lives. We should. Because there are real monsters on the other side. Monsters are real. We were right when we were kids

They are two worthless disgusting POS and I wish hell on both of them, that daughter and that kid is just going to grow up to be an animal too.

I don’t know how many spawn she has

But they will be evil trust me

It’s embarrasing enough to be the world’s sorest loser - but then she continues to think she’s relevant.

Shut up and chug your chardonnay you used up old hag!

She sold her soul to get the presidency and it didn't work. That's why she is so bitter.
