Hillary Clinton, Louise Penny thriller: An ex-president as dangerous and magnetic as Trump
news.yahoo.com ^ | 10/12/21 | Jill Lawrence

There’s a moment in “State of Terror,” the new thriller by Hillary Rodham Clinton and Louise Penny, when the protagonist – Ellen Adams, a spunky and fearless female secretary of State – visits former President Eric Dunn at his palatial Florida estate and attempts to describe the spell he casts.

“To be in his orbit was to experience something extraordinary. There was a pull, a promise of excitement. Of danger. Like juggling grenades. It was exhilarating. And terrifying. Even she could feel it.”

What I could feel on that page was Clinton wrestling with how she could have lost the presidency to Donald Trump. Adams concludes that Dunn profited from scheming foreign governments as well as a dark side to democracy. “People were free to abuse their freedoms,” she muses.

And will do so over and over again, she might have added. Because it sure looks like our real-life former president is headed for a 2024 run, and neither he nor his followers have changed a bit.

Trump won because he wanted to help us keep our country when every other politician wanted to keep the illegal alien inundation going.

Simple as that.

It appears the deep state is making up for lost time.

Ugh! I LOVED Louise Penny’s first novel, ‘Still Life.’ Then I read she was palls with The Beast and that was the end of reading anything else she wrote.

Why does ‘She Who Shall Not Be Named’ have to touch just about EVERY aspect of my life? Why? WHY?!?!

When these mindless skanks and pigs talk about “dangerous” and “enemy” and such, they are talking about being those above for animals like themselves.

Its all about ME. That is all they can think of.

Hell, they do not even care about each other in their deranged minds. Us means me.

Hillary Clinton flunked the DC Bar exam, just like Kamala Harris and Meshelle Obama (Illinois bar exam); she doesn’t know scat about the law or Constitution.

I have listened to all of the audio books in the series. Her main characters have always been a bit on the woke side, but I still enjoyed them. Until the most recent one - very anti-Trump and pro vaccine.

Do you remember the title? I'm in the middle of the series, but I'll be sure to stop before I get to that one.

Actually, Hillary Clinton reminds me more of the VP in “Sum of All Fears” by Tom Clancy, but what do I know.
