On Friday morning, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton suggested that President Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee, Judge Brett Kavanaugh, would bring back slavery if he is confirmed to the nation's highest court.
"Let me say a word about the nomination of Judge Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court," Clinton told the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) at its national convention. "This nomination holds out the threat of devastating consequences for workers rights, civil rights, LGBT rights, women’s rights — including those to make our own health decisions."
"It is a blatant attempt by this administration to shift the balance of the Court for decades and to reverse decades of progress," the former Democratic presidential nominee declared.
Then came the kicker: "I used to worry that they [the Republicans] wanted to turn the clock back to the 1950s. Now I worry they want to turn it back to the 1850s."
Clinton was clearly suggesting that Trump and Kavanaugh want to return to the days when slavery was legal in the South. The irony is, originalist Supreme Court justices like Kavanaugh would have agreed with Abraham Lincoln against the South, especially on the issue of slavery.
The American Civil War started in 1861, after a tense decade of increasing hostility between Southern Democrats who wanted to extend slavery beyond its boundaries as established by constitutional laws and Northern Republicans who saw slavery as evil and wanted to keep it within those limits. Republican Abraham Lincoln campaigned on restraining the evil institution, but an activist Supreme Court ruled that slavery could extend into the territories.
Ironically, another Republican president wants to restrain another activist Supreme Court, and Democrat Hillary Clinton is scaremongering....

“Shed’s tired, sick, stupid, mentally impaired, and yet he’s addicted to politics.”
She’s not addicted to politics. She’s addicted to her quest to fulfill her narcissistic need for what she considers ‘greatness’. She NEEDS to be President. She NEEDS people to look up to her as their savior. She is without question a dangerously sick narcissist who will do whatever it takes to pursue her delusions of grandeur. Her personality is so pathological it could easily be used as a thesis for a PhD in psychology. She’s seriously scary and sick.
From the eyes of babes...LOL!
Gee, Oprah. That could/does pertain to blacks’ opinions about whites, too. Aren’t they marinated in prejudice and racism against whites? Do they “just have to die”, too?
That is so accurate!
Hasn’t BHO from time to time accused the political opposition as using fear to motivate their base of voters? I wonder what he thinks about loser HRC’s suggestions?
Hatred has consumed these people; they do not need to be anywhere the levers of power.
Fear mongering and identity politics beyond steroids. This is the “how dare you even think the conservatives are acceptable” overplayed gambit.
Their answer (seriously) to that is all those people went to the Republican party.
Having read all the comments, it is apparent that all who did comment agree the bitch is crazy.
Accusing Kavanaugh of something he has NOT done, the pants suit hag was using an often used Clinton method of accusing their opponent of the things they themselves have done/will do. Trump should decree a national holiday to celebrate that Hitlary DID NOT get elected POTUS!
I think she is a long-term alcohol/drug addict. The brains of such people function more and more erratically over time as parts of the brain responsible for coherent, logical thought are destroyed.
So, stupidity, yes. It is largely self-inflicted.
When I was bedridden after an accident, I watched a lot of daytime tv...those who accuse their spouses/so’s of cheating were usually cheating themselves.
Time to throw a chair! LOL!
Okay. I'm good with reversing decades of un-Constitutional progress. The Constitution was never meant to "progress" except through the Amendment process. It was written in stone and is the original guiding document that countless nations copied for their own betterment since 1787. Sorry Kamala, it was not 1776, you clueless commie.
Then came the kicker: "I used to worry that they [the Republicans] wanted to turn the clock back to the 1950s. Now I worry they want to turn it back to the 1850s."
How removed from reality does someone have to be to even think that, much less say it? This so-called most intelligent woman in the World has lost all perspective, if she ever had any.
Democrat presidential ticket in 2024. Hillary/Maxine. Slogan: Together Towards Socialism!
She’s running in 2020.
She’ll get shlonged.
But she’ll run again in 2024.
Hillary Rodham Methusaleh.
nope
She doesn’t feel no ways tired, she told us so herself.

This might be a top-ten HRC cringeworthy moment.
I wonder if Hillary is saying this just to pressure Kavanaugh to recuse himself on any case where she is brought before the court. Everything those Clintons say is very calculated.
