Former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton said in an interview with the Financial Times published Friday that the U.S. is on the “precipice of losing our democracy.”

“We are standing on the precipice of losing our democracy, and everything that everybody else cares about then goes out the window,” said Clinton to interviewer Edward Luce.

Translation: “We’re trying to install a totalitartian dictatorship where we never need to bother with elections again. Don’t you understand? If you get in our way, you’re a threat to democracy.”

Clinton emphasized her belief that the Democratic Party should focus on the issues that “help you win” rather than more controversial issues important only to minorities.


Read that slowly and let your lips move....................

What does “losing our democracy” even mean. Even playing fast and loose with correct terms for our form of government, I still don’t get it.

We are talking about public opinion and voting. Right?

She doesn’t think the Army is going to take over. Does she?

What is she talking about?

She’s just upset because they didn’t steal the election enough in ‘16.

Democracy as defined by the leftists in the US = ‘Rats.

They need to be unelected forever as the oppressors that they are.

“Democracy” in this context is a term of art meaning that which is approved by the oligarchy.

Democracy exists only when the Democrats get to choose who they elect, and the Democrats get to choose who the Republicans elect too.

“We are standing on the precipice of losing our democracy, and everything that everybody else cares about then goes out the window,” said Clinton to interviewer Edward Luce.


Who is “we”? What is “everything that everybody else cares about”? Does she mean “everything that the liberal care about” goes out the window? Does she think she speaks for all of us? Or speaks for America in general? Who the heck does she think she is?

She is equating the health and survival of our American constitutional republic, with the electoral prospects of the Democrat party, of one political party within our republic? Who the heck died and made her boss????

Don’t worry, she does not mean they should leave the poofters in a lurch. The DNC will hold fast to the faggots even if the wrath of the Lord is going on all around them in the tribulation.

You ever notice the left always says “democracy” instead of constitutional republic? Why do they do that? I think it’s because they don’t support the constitution.

This “losing our Democracy” crap must have focus grouped pretty well because the rats use it a lot.
