Hillary Clinton Says She Was Right All Along
The Atlantic ^ | 10/9/2020 | Edward-Isaac Dovere

Posted on 10/09/2020 3:33:25 PM PDT by simpson96

Only one Democrat other than Joe Biden has experience running for president against Donald Trump, and she’s not quite over 2016, or confident that Biden will be able to do what she couldn’t.

Hillary Clinton has been in lockdown like everyone else. It feels like Groundhog Day, she told me Wednesday afternoon. But existential exhaustion looks different for a woman who has spent the past four years thinking about the final month of the 2016 election—and who worries that Vladimir Putin, disinformation, and our deep political divides will still threaten American democracy even if Biden wins.

In many ways, Clinton feels vindicated by how the Trump presidency has played out, and by what Americans have learned about him over the past four years—including the recent revelation that he paid just $750 in federal income taxes in 2017. That “was even worse than I thought it was,” she said. But being right is a small solace.(snip) And to those who wish she would just go away? She thinks they feel a bit guilty, she told me: They don’t want to admit that she was right about Trump.

What she’s hoping for over the next four years: Biden wins and gets rid of Trump, Vice President Kamala Harris helps reset some of the American political expectations for women, and Mark Zuckerberg—whom she compared to the sorcerer’s apprentice, losing control of his creation in a way that has done grave damage around the world—ends up facing new restrictions. She’s also hoping that she can step back from politics a bit more.

FTA:

Edward-Isaac Dovere: In the 2016 campaign, you collapsed at an event. Conspiracies sprouted up. When you see President Trump’s COVID-19 diagnosis, what do you make of it and the reaction to it?

Hillary Clinton: It’s apples and oranges, completely. When I was diagnosed with walking pneumonia, I was immediately put on antibiotics. I was told that I was not contagious, and I tried to go on with my schedule. Which proved to be problematic, because I got overheated at the 9/11 ceremony and knew that I was going to have to leave. And so I left and went to my daughter’s apartment—rested for, I don’t know, an hour or so. I don’t even think it’s comparable.

The PIAPS should have been locked up years ago.
The day they let the Toons walk was the day justice in America died.

that woman belongs in a rest home or psychiatric hospital. My bet is that when she utters her words as life drains from her body, those words will be “I was robbed”.

Yeah? Well, revelation here, no psychopath ever thinks he/she is wrong about anything. The inability to judge one’s own actions is a characteristic of the insane/criminal mind.

Pelosi declares Biden incompetent and installs President Harris. Harris appoints Hillary as VP. Arkancide hits the white house and Hillary becomes President with Mooshell as the new VP.

Still pushing the false narrative.

Democrats were the only ones colluding with Russia.

I really feel sorry for anyone who has to be around her on a regular basis.

“In many ways, Clinton feels vindicated by how the Trump presidency has played out, and by what Americans have learned about him over the past four years—including the recent revelation that he paid just $750 in federal income taxes in 2017.”

Another lie. He paid way more than that, because he essentially “prepaid” some of his 2017 taxes by overpaying in earlier years, not taking an immediate refund on that over payment, and getting tax credits for it which he used in part for 2017.

And how much did Billary, Inc. rob from their illegal “foundation” over the years, and how much cashed was passed through it in their money laundering influence peddling operations, disguised as “donations” and “speaking fees” to Bill???

From The Atlantic?

The Atlantic is filled with dead fish, sewage and old crabs.

It’s also the name of an ocean.

She can share a room with Biden in his basement, perhaps he will like the smell boiled cabbage and urine.
