He’s correct.

The US would still be mired in the Obama Recession.

There are lots of possible counterfactuals to think about had Hillary Clinton won the presidency as all the experts had predicted.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg stepping down to be replaced by Loretta Lynch...

James Comey remaining as director of the FBI ...

No Russian collusion circus investigation...

And so on...

We dodged a barrage of bullets with her loss.

But most important, there would be no collusion narrative — neither one concerning a defeated Donald Trump nor another implicating a victorious Hillary Clinton.

Nonsense.

A few months into her first term, someone in Loretta Lynch's justice department would have leaked the existence of a large-scale investigation into what appear to have been links between the unsuccessful Trump presidential campaign and "several un-named foreign powers."

This would have been used to attack the entire Republican party, and would be ramping up in advance of this November's off-year congressional elections.

If the witch had won, her hit teams would be very active and systematically ruining every conservative organization in the country.

Conservative websites would be shut down, Rush and Hannity would have been threatened, etc, etc.

My favorite Hillary quote. After exiting the Matt Lauer debate:

“If that F*****G B*****D wins, we all hang from nooses.”

If Hillary had won Trump would be ruined by now. The IRS would have taken his money. And the FBI, CIA, NSA, etc would have arrested him for treason for “collaborating” with the Russians. The Clintons always get even. And they’re not out yet. Trump has a lot of guts to take them on. And especially to have won.

Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin thought they were taking zero risks in lying to FBI investigators...

when they claimed that they had no idea about Clinton’s unlawful private server, even though they had, in fact, discussed the server in emails and used it themselves when sending emails.

But why should they have cared...

...given Trump’s certain looming defeat and the fact that Andrew McCabe was somehow involved or would be involved in running, or rather massaging, the investigation?

Their only real danger might have been telling the truth to FBI investigators: that both they and Hillary had known precisely what she was doing. For telling the truth, both Mills and Abedin would soon have faced career-ending payback from a President Clinton.

Our ace in the hole is the arrogance of these deep state criminals... and how easy it's been picking up their droppings.

She would have been killed in a fall down the White House stairs by now.

Jesus had other ideas. Saved generations of sacrifices and restored the Office of President of the United States to the standards of our Founding Fathers.
