Clintons claim America is on the edge of losing democracy: Hillary says 'everything that everybody else cares about' could 'go out the window' and Bill tells James Corden he fears for the 'structure of government'

Bill and Hillary Clinton both suggested that American democracy is teetering on the edge of existence in a pair of separate interviews.

The pair both said the government as we know it is at risk after the third January 6 committee hearing and a new poll saying a majority of both Democrats and Republicans believe America will 'cease to exist' as a democracy.

Former president Bill told CBS's The Late Late Show host James Corden on Wednesday night that he fears the United States could 'completely lose our constitutional democracy'.

Hillary painted a similarly bleak picture in an interview with the Financial Times in an interview published less than 48 hours later on Friday.

Reporter Edward Luce suggested to her that the Democrats 'seem to be going out of their way to lose elections by elevating activist causes, notably the transgender debate, which are relevant only to a small minority'.

'We are standing on the precipice of losing our democracy, and everything that everybody else cares about then goes out the window

'Look, the most important thing is to win the next election. The alternative is so frightening that whatever does not help you win should not be a priority.

Corden asked Clinton how he stays 'so positive in what has been a very, very dark few years', without mentioning Donald Trump by name.

The Democrat admitted it was 'impossible to be pessimistic about the future' while he was watching his grandchildren growing up, but went on to paint a bleak picture of America's future - just hours after the third hearing from the January 6 committee hearing.

'I actually think there's a fair chance that we could completely lose our constitutional democracy for a couple of decades if we keep making — if we make bad decisions, Clinton added.

Constitutional democracy is a system of government in which the limits of political authority are clearly stated and the electorate has the power to remove poor performing governments.

And yet when the process is working, they won’t let it.

To me a democratic government is mob rule and fast changes with chaos.

A republic is stable slowly moving inefficent government with emphasis on established law.

Everything they say reeks of desperation. The mid-terms scare the shirt out of them.

Curt Schilling said it well today, “You, honestly, need to STFU and thank the Lord you are not in jail. You and your teenage groping mutant are one of the many reasons legal American citizens despise DC. You two represent ALL that is wrong with the left and with politics,” responded Schilling.

I believe that Schillary, Pelousy, Chucky, AOC, and others in that crowd keep using the phrase “Lose Our Democracy” because they believe that many people in this country (their millenial minions) are so stupid that they believe Democrats=Democracy simply because the two words are similar in spelling. And those woke dumfks probably do believe that.

She’s either clueless, delusional, or will say anything to maintain the overinflated importance of government and those connected to it.

We lost our Constitutional Republic when the ineligible Kenyan from Indonesia was sworn in in direct violation of it.

Absolute truth right there....

“Democracy” in this context a term of art meaning that which meets with the approval of the oligarchy.

“we could completely lose our constitutional democracy for a couple of decades if we keep making — if we make bad decisions, Clinton added.”

Fortunately, she’e being entirely consistent with her thinking selling 1/5th of Uranium 1 to Russia and the era in which Billy Bob and Loral sold missile tech to the CCP. Those deals mighta never gotten done without people of the Clinton vision in charge./s

If I were a .gov official, I’d be worried about losing the consent of the governed right now.
