'Ego blinds her': 2020 Democrats disown Hillary Clinton

DES MOINES, Iowa — Hillary Clinton is finding out what it's like to be on the long list of Democratic also-rans.

The party has, for years, discarded losing presidential candidates such as George McGovern, Walter Mondale, and Michael Dukakis, among others — to the point that they're often treated as contagious diseases, seen at best as cautionary tales about how not to campaign for the White House.

Fair or not, Clinton has, in many ways, had that dishonor bestowed on her. Having lost the 2016 election to President Trump in one of the biggest political upsets in American history, the former first lady, senator, and secretary of state, 72, is a pariah among some Democrats as the party's nominating season kicks off Monday with the Iowa caucuses.

Democratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib on Friday night, for example, booed Clinton from the stage of a campaign event for Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the runner-up in the 2016 Democratic contest. Onstage in Clive, Iowa, a panel discussion Tlaib was participating in turned to Clinton's recent comments bashing the socialist White House candidate, 78.

"You all know I can't be quiet. No, we're gonna boo," Tlaib said. "That's all right. The haters will shut up on Monday when we win."

Clinton angered Democrats when she said in an interview promoting a Hulu documentary, she would be reluctant to support 2016 nemesis Sanders should he secure the 2020 nod.

The pushback against Clinton is now in full force after she's been on the national stage for nearly 30 years. In 1992, Bill and Hillary Clinton were fresh political faces and the object of considerable fascination. As President Bill Clinton's eight years in the White House wound down, Hillary Clinton ran and won a New York Senate seat, then served as President Barack Obama's...

The difference is that none of those individuals still owned the DNC when they were done, and she does.

At this point, she’s probably the best they can do. Obama nostalgics would vote for her (even though she and O hated each other), old line Dems would vote for her, and of course the pussy hat brigade would be out in force.

One thing gives me nightmares, it is the containers built to house an entire launch and warhead system. I think it was called the Gulftainer, or something similar. America has given the control of our ports to China and private companies with allegiance to “other than the US”. How many of these are prepositioned with missiles? How many are prepositioned with automatic weapons, and supplies for a war within our borders? We just cannot know the depths of treachery Obama and those who hate us, have plumbed to.

“Hillary Clinton ran and won a New York Senate seat”
Ah yes, her infamous “I’m not listening” your of NY where everyone yelled at her “go home”.
And she was frauded into her seat, the levers on most voting machines were disabled on one specific side.

It certainly took them a long time to figure her out.

Democrats are slow.

“Victory has a thousand fathers, but defeat is an orphan.” John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Actually, it’s from Tacitus, but he never had the Kennedy family’s PR machine...

JFK probably heard it from one of Mussolini’s diplomats.

We ought to maintain a list of misattributed quotes that are popular with the Left lol.

Yeah I remembered the quote but apparently Google search engine has a leftist bent.
Tacitus didn’t show up on the first page.

Kennedy wasn’t smart enough to come up with that.

I was raised in New York and I still have family there.

Looking at the results of all the OTHER elections in NY, I think it’s unlikely that she needed fraud to win.

It’s NY, shenanigans are normal.
I live in Orange county.
We had a local town official glue a rubber phallus to her own windshield, break her own wipers, and have a horse head put in her pool all so she could claim “persecution”.
She said she “knew something was wrong” so she “sent her husband to check the pool” where he found the horse head.
In other words, she knew it was there.
Such shenanigans, and others, are rampant here.
Vote fraud wouldn’t be out of the ordinary.
