Hillary Clinton hits back at Buttigieg over his slap at her failed 2016 campaign
Washington Examiner ^ | 4/12/19 | Naomi Lim

**SNIP**

"I really do believe that we always have to appeal to our better selves because the wolf is at the door, my friends," Clinton said Friday during an appearance at the 10th Annual Women in the World New York Summit. "Negativity, despair, anxiety, resentment, anger, prejudice, that's part of human nature and the job of the leader is to appeal to us to be more than we can be on our own, to join hands in common effort."

"I was well aware that we had problems that we had to solve, but it's been my experience that anger, resentment, prejudice are not strategies," the former First Lady, Secretary of State and senator from New York added. "They stop people from thinking. They don't enlist people in the common effort to try to find solutions."

Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Ind., told the Washington Post in January that President Trump connected with the concerns of ordinary Americans in a way Clinton did not.

“Donald Trump got elected because, in his twisted way, he pointed out the huge troubles in our economy and our democracy,” he said. “At least he didn’t go around saying that America was already great, like Hillary did.”

We’ve got all the RATS in congress and a good portion of the GOP refusing to do what is right on immigration and what the majority wants. They are willing to see the country destroyed for power and money. So it is hard to trust anyone in DC.

...Slam HRC...lose my vote," and another who chimed in: "It is unfortunate when people as smart as @PeteButtigieg engage in this fantasy fiction about 2016. And as a gay American it is disappointing because @HillaryClinton ran a campaign which amongst its many values championed our community,"

Buttigieg's not running as 'President of Gay Grievance Groups' which is mildly refreshing.

Clinton's statement, as quoted above, is like a window into the mind of Hillary Clinton and a perfect example of her lack of self-awareness and ability to be introspective. Have "anger, resentment, and prejudice" not been the motivating factors for her words and actions since the night of Election 2016?

Be concerned about Butt - he’s dangerous. He has Obama’s positions and ‘likability’ and is a member of one of the required groups - plus Hillary does’t like him. Paired with the right veep (or v.v.) he could be a winning candidate.

Clinton will always be a bitter loser. She will go to her grave as a failure but Hell will celebrate her.

I still thank the good Lord that she’s not the president.

Me too. And the more I think about it the more I consider it a miracle. Yes, a miracle.

Hillary's defeat also proves that pride goeth before a fall.

A carpet muncher and a pillow biter. Today's Democrats!

The Dems are showing their true, ugly colors. Hopefully, more and more decent and good people are seeing it and rejecting it. Our survival is at stake.

Regards to you.

Butt-gag can’t connect with most Americans. He may poll well among the leftards, and they will likely make him their VP candidate, but he aint connecting.

Hillary Clinton: Julian Assange must ‘answer for what he has done’

Dammit, the voters weren't supposed to see the truth! Revenge!

Yet.......

He's already making his homosexuality a campaign issue with his remarks to VP Pence. It will escalate.
