Hillary's Boomerang

The irony. So rich it could give you gout.

At a fundraiser on September 9, 2016, Hillary Clinton made a soul-baring gaffe. With uncharacteristic candor, she stated that half of all Trump supporters are a "basket of deplorables," that they're "irredeemable," as well as "racist, sexist homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic – you name it."

Naturally, with her epic lack of self-awareness (see What Happened book tour, 2017) and a blind spot about herself that rivals a covered wagon's, she said this adjacent to a banner pimping her slogan, "Stronger Together."

Because Hillary Clinton is all about the unifying.

I checked. Page 1 of How to Get People to Like You begins with the following sound advice: "Don't insult, belittle, demean, diminish, castigate, or otherwise excoriate people you want to like you."

Stands to reason.

And yet, if you're Hillary Clinton, apparently this helpful truism is much harder to glean when you have a steady stream of smoke being blown up your symbol for the Democratic Party. Accomplished as she is, the Queen of Pantsuits fell prey to the fawning sycophants surrounding her. You'd think the most qualified candidate in history would've figured out it was a bad idea to middle-finger middle America – but you would've thought wrong. Helpful truism, part 2: The only thing that rivals Hillary Clinton's bred-in-the-bone penchant for lies and corruption is her reliably flummoxed efforts to GPS a clue. She just doesn't get it.

This is sad. And astonishing. And hilarious. And exhausting.

The more i see Hillary—the more pleased I am with my vote for Trump. What would that corrupt hag have done in office? Become rich? Sell out the nation to Russia or China, Kill her way to permanent power? It would have been horrible. She was unstable and foolish enough to start a WW III.

and, viewed as a disinterested party, extremely fun to watch

Trump eggs her on and in a pissed condition she keeps on keeping on

So long as Hillary is, there is no cohesive Democrat party

—— She came way too close to the presidency for my comfort.-—

She won the popular vote. Democrats will probably always win the popular vote until New York or San Francisco or Los Angeles are destroyed

I do the same. And every single time I see a Hillary or Bernie bumper sticker during my ride to work I roll down the window, point at them, and I literally guffaw.

That was no "gaffe," that was a planned line.

Clinton actually said it twice, first during a sit-down interview on Israeli television, and second a day later at this LGBT fundraising event in New York City.

Amen. Well said.

He bagged that nasty bitch, and for that alone, Trump belongs on Rushmore.
