Pathetic 'View' Begs Chelsea Clinton: 'Why Not' Run for Congress?

It seems The View hosts just can’t get over their Clinton crush. Every time Chelsea or Hillary appears on The View, they beg them to run for office. On Wednesday’s show, Chelsea Clinton stopped by for the second time in two weeks to talk about this and rave over last night’s Democratic debate.

As Clinton sat down, she was immediately asked if she was running for Congress, (which she denied.) Co-host Sunny Hostin gushed, “Why not?!” while fellow co-host Abby Huntsman wanted to know “Do you think you ever will?” Finally Clinton conceded it was possible, saying, “I don’t know” then adding “maybe.” Finally they got around to talking about the debate.

Clinton praised Democrats for talking about universal health care and "gun violence" ie: confiscating guns, "as something that has to become a reality in our country." Given more opportunity to tout the far-left, ABC then played a clip where Cory Booker passionately rallied men to stand up for abortion as a “human right.” Clinton, who just had another baby, praised Spartacus for that "special" moment:

“So that was kind of a special moment I thought last night,” Clinton gushed. She continued to rave:

Our human rights are our human rights and those should be respected and protected and advanced because we're human beings, not because of your relationship to a woman in your own life, and I was so, so, so grateful that he made that point so strongly last night.

The hosts kept to the far-left while discussing the economy as well. Whoopi again complained that Trump’s tax plan took money away from the middle class, (which is actually false.) The other liberal hosts whined that Republican gave corporations tax cuts. After Huntsman suggested that billionaires could do good for the community, as when her grandfather built a cancer treatment hospital, Hostin argued she "doesn't see this happening" so it must not be true.

In a revealing moment, Clinton lectured that taxpayers can’t be trusted with their own money and the government has to decide that for them, saying: “But we couldn’t trust them just to do that. Right? That’s why we need to have higher taxes on them. So that is then expected of them that they then do that.” She didn’t explain how exactly high taxes incentivizes CEOs to hire more workers.

Unfortunately The View has been largely devoid of any kind of strong conservative arguments as of late. Huntsman and McCain, who have in the past tried to bring some balance to the table, have decided to stay silent or find points of agreement in these conversations lately.

In fact Clinton fit in so well with the liberal hosts at the table, it wouldn’t be surprising if this was a test run for Clinton to have a permanent seat at the table, after her lucrative gig at NBC a few years ago earned her hundreds of thousands of dollars for very little work.

On the whole, I think folks are done with the Clintons.

What qualifications does she have? Second question: does she have a lecherous sexual predator husband? If not, then she is already better than her mother and that is not saying much.

The first off script question from a journalist would have her stammering.

While everyone thinks the retirement of Nita Lowey means Webb’s daughter is heading to the House, I maintain that she’s going to the Senate whenever the Clintons decide to pay back Gillibrand’s MeToo condemnation of Bildo by forcing her out. Then everyone will be gushing over Chelsea taking over her mother’s seat by way of Cuomo appointment to the vacant seat.

According to the BabylonBee - the Catholic Church is official on record :

Watching the View counts as Time Served against Purgatory Requirements.

chelsea spoke correctly, knowing she would be handed a congressional position.

I agree. And I think that when Hillary and/or Bill are gone, any value Chelsea might have as an elected official will be ZERO.

I would think that by now, the upper echelons of Ratdom would be saying "time to move on from that Clinton Arkansas Trailer Trash and go back to being the Party of Kennedys".

Why shouldn’t a spoiled, ignorant, privileged rich thing run for office? Her mom did and then thought she could be president.

Chelsea has no idea what she thinks, but just parrots liberal soundbites. She is not even fit to sweep floors at peter butthead’s campaign headquarters.

It does seem curious. One day, Chelsea is reported close to taking a ‘Listening Tour’ to drum up interest for a political run. The next day; “Nope. I’m not doing it.”
Some particular rocks, she doesn’t want turned over and looked at.

I guess If Hunter Biden can score millions in the energy business without actually KNOWING anything about the energy business.... SHE can be a Congressperson without know anything

I’ve got blown out light bulbs that are smarter than her. I’d love to see her in a debate.

Wasn’t that why Mommy and Daddy bought the house next door?
