REVIEW: What I Learned From Hillary Clinton’s Master Class on ‘The Power of Resilience’
WFB ^ | 17 Dec 2021 | Andrew Stiles and Matthew Foldi

You've probably heard the saying: Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach. In this day and age, those who really can't become Master Class instructors on how to fail.

Scholars beware: Hillary Clinton's new course on "the power of resilience" is not for the faint of heart. Completing the three-and-a-half hour Master Class requires an extraordinary amount of preexisting intellectual resilience. Your humble reviewer, for example, was forced to confront his own lack of resilience when his failure to overcome the soul-destroying tedium of Hillary's lectures caused him to miss his original deadline. (Disclaimer: Unless you're getting paid to review it, do not attempt.)

Maybe the producers were trying to make some kind of meta artistic statement, because sitting through an extended PowerPoint presentation from one of the least charismatic public figures in American history will inevitably make you more confident in your ability to overcome life's challenges, which will seem so facile by comparison. Plus, thanks to Hillary's imparted wisdom, you'll already know the answer to questions like, "Should you get back up after getting knocked down?" and "Should you have a mission statement for your life?"

“You almost have to feel sorry for Hillary Clinton. Not really, but for the sake of argument. As recently as 2016, she was a multimillionaire feminist icon on the verge of making history. Now she’s just an irrelevant failure and ‘toxic white liberal’ who is despised or ignored by everyone outside the Acela corridor cocktail circuit. Her days of charging $225,500 to give a speech at the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries are long gone, yet she is either unable or unwilling to bow out gracefully. The Master Class gig seems like another step in Hillary’s inevitable evolution from failed politician to moderately successful self-help guru to extremely successful multilevel marketing executive to federal inmate.”

a lot of people lost all respect for “Master Class” when they brought in the Clintons as “experts”

what a great way to kill your credibility!!

"...Hillary’s inevitable evolution from failed politician...to federal inmate.”

Com'on now...she will never be an inmate and she is far from finished with her quest for the Presidency. She thinks it's her destiny, she will not go quietly into the night - the era of Hillary is far from over.

Herself lost to a black junior senator who never held a job and a novice politician who never ran a campaign. Just sayin.

... which just shows how powerful the deep state really is, that she could lose to someone like that.

The only thing I want to see of Hillary is the secret videos of her meltdown on the night of November 8, 2016, when Trump beat her and she realized she wasted money on a video of a glass ceiling breaking rather than stuffing ballot boxes in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

I worked for a Fortune 500 company based in WI. About a decade ago, our company wide focus was on our public image. We all received presentations, posters, stickers and T-shirts about our 5 company values. I don’t remember them all, but the first two were: 1. Do the right thing, 2. Build customer trust every day, and others dealing with integrity. We capped it all off by paying Bill Clinton $500K to be the keynote speaker at our client conference.

I’d love to see a Trump-Clinton rematch. They could put that on pay-per-view. Watching him defeat her again would be great.

Her full-auto stream of platitudes reminds me exactly of Hilllary (oh, wait!). She is a waddling aphorism.

“Discovering Your Mission,” “Taking Criticism Seriously, Not Personally,” and “Overcoming Setbacks,” “Aim for a win-win,”
“You are the only you there will ever be,” she says. “Be the best you you can possibly be and be true to who you are.”

My mind immediately drifted to the scene in “Wizard of Oz” where he was remediating the troupe’s individual deficiencies. “Lion, you have courage; all you lack is a medal”. “Scarecrow, you have brains; all you need is a diploma.” “Tin Man, you have a heart; you just need a testimonial”. “Dorothy, just click your heels and repeat: ‘There’s no place llike home’”

So profound.

the era of Hillary is far from over.…..

Until she is dead and burned to ashes, and then scattered somewhere, perhaps in a field of garlic.

Perhaps they can sell small vials of her ashes that we can flush into our septic systems.
