5 takeaways from day 3 of the DNC: Clinton has an ‘I told you so’ moment
aol ^ | Aug 20th 2020 | DAVID KNOWLES

During the 2016 presidential campaign, the Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton, repeatedly warned that electing Donald Trump posed a risk to the safety and security of the nation. On Thursday, Clinton returned to the spotlight with a message that, at times, seemed to say, “I told you so.”

“I wish Donald Trump knew how to be a president,” Clinton said in a live speech from her home in Westchester County, N.Y. “Because America needs a president right now.”

Clinton, who, since losing a close election to Trump in 2016, has often spoken out against the president and those in his administration, recounted what she had heard from Americans distraught over the direction the country has been heading.

“For four years, people have said to me, ‘I didn’t realize how dangerous he was.’ ‘I wish I could go back and do it over.’ Or worst, ‘I should have voted,’” Clinton said. “Well, this can’t be another woulda, coulda, shoulda election. If you vote by mail, request your ballot now, and send it back as soon as you can. If you vote in person, do it early. Bring a friend and wear a mask. Become a poll worker. Most of all, no matter what, vote. Vote like our lives and livelihoods are on the line, because they are.”

Clinton won the popular vote in 2016 by more than 2.8 million votes, while losing the Electoral College to Trump, and on Wednesday, she reminded those watching that history could repeat itself in 2020.

“Don’t forget: Joe and Kamala can win by nearly 3 million votes and still lose,” Clinton said. “Take it from me.”

The nation’s current miseries can all be laid at the feet of Democrat Mayors and Governors.

One thing is clear. The “risk to the safety and security of the nation” is the Democrat Party’s revenge against the American electorate which dared elect a pro-American President.

What’s with this liberal meme that “our lives” somehow depend on our voting Democrat????? What’s with this nonsense that four more years of Trump mean America as we know it will be destroyed????

Political rhetoric gets absurd sometimes. yet there are true believers out there, such as Hollywood idiots, who drink this kool aid.

The only people saying things like this are the same Left-wing nuts who voted against Trump the first time. Really think Trump is more dangerous than the kooks in charge of Blue Cities and States?

They can’t look past the most recent crisis (COVID). Idiots. The country was doing great the three years before that mess hit. And it’s rebounding quite nicely now.

Take it up with the framers, honey. They devised the Electoral College to protect the country from people like you.

Anything Hillary is always just regurgitation of her failures to get what she sought to ultimately achieve - the First Female Presidency.... She lost and that is and will always be her legacy.

I’ve actually been watching this dull, amateur hour convention. Even though it was short, Hillary’s speech was the most enfuriating and hardest to sit through—and that’s really saying something. She really reminded me of how happy I am that she isn’t president.

You really think that DOJ is going to find enough evidence to charge anyone above “peon” level? When the intelligence agencies (by design) have an entire layer where there is zero oversight, even from the President?

Let me tell you what a former CIA director told a sitting President when the President asked him directly if the CIA was involved in Watergate (keep in mind the President is supposed to have access to 100% of all classified information, on demand, and the CIA is supposed to be subordinate to him):

“President: Was the CIA involved in Watergate?

CIA Director: There is a layer in the Agency which you can never really find out what is going on. So you don’t ever want to give them a clean bill of health. I am not sure Bill [Colby] knows all, nor that I did.”
