In another world, she could have been in the White House on Friday 3 June, heading into the final third of a two-term presidency. Instead she was in Colmans, a chippy in South Shields on Ocean’s Road, a weathered North Sea boulevard half an hour east of Newcastle.
Hillary Clinton – the first female senator for New York, and a former first lady, US secretary of state, and Democratic presidential nominee – is now a private citizen, but she keeps a retinue fit for the powerful: four bodyguards perched nearby as I approached her, seated for supper and surrounded by local dignitaries.

Scandals in Little Rock, scandals in the WH, failed health care plan (thank God!), nothing burger Senate career, beaten like a drum by 0bama, scandal ridden Sec. State and let’s never ever forget how Donald John Trump kicked your frumpy rear end from one coast to the other. LOLOL
You’re the biggest loser to never hit the big time.
Furriners like himself will never understand what it takes to be an American.
These young fools who think that by hanging around slugs like HRC, somehow, they are going to be “enlightened”, elevated by the experience. We are a unique people in a unique country. People like HRC want want to destroy or severely cripple us-it’s the only way they think they can rule over us. PATHETIC!
And this little clown is standing on the sidelines watching, with one thumb in his mouth and the other up his ass.
I actually read (well, skimmed) the entire article. The lies and distortions are real. In Commie circles, the vote supression, right wing media complex (you know, 5% of all media) and J6 are all just the bad GOP being racists and haters.
This kid’s mind is full of Commie sh-t. He is a hopeless, useless Frog.
