Hillary Clinton: Trump, GOP’s ‘Lust for Power’ Is Destroying Our Institutions
Breitbart ^ | 20 Sep 2020 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/20/2020 4:33:59 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton accused President Donald Trump and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) of having a destructive lust for power on Sunday’s broadcast of NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

While discussing a nominee to replace the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Clinton said, “I was able to watch your previous interviews with Senators Klobuchar and Barrasso, and Senator Barrasso is doing an epic job trying to defend the indefensible. The system has been broken for quite a while, but clearly, the decision that Mitch McConnell made back in 2016 in the midst of that presidential election, but at a much earlier time when Justice Scalia unexpectedly passed away, should be the standard now. They talk about we had other standards before, well, they made a new precedent and the new presidential which they defended incredibly passionately was to wait for the next president, whoever that is, to make the nomination, but as you clearly heard, that is not what they are intending, and it’s another blow to our institutions.”

She added, “You know, what’s happening in our country is incredibly dangerous. Our institutions are being basically undermined by the lust for power, power for personal gain in the case of the president or power for institutional gain in the case of Mitch McConnell, at the cost of ensuring that our institutions withstand whatever the political wins might be. But they made this decision if 2016, and they held to account for it.”

Why in God's name do they stay together? Life must be hell with a seething psychopath like her...and he's out nailing under age girls.

Must be because spouses can't be compelled to testify against each other.

It was never a real marriage. It was a political partnership.

Hillary likes girls.

Except the Democrats would do the exact same thing if they had the chance. The difference is that Republicans wouldn’t be talking about packing the court if they went through with it.

I am a big Rex Stout fan I have read, (I think) every Nero Wolfe mystery. Most of the episodes of that A&E series are on YouTube btw.

Says a woman whose entire adult life was built on her lust for power and her determination to get it no matter what it took.

I am usually sympathetic to those whose dreams have crashed, but, in her case, I say that her winding up a sad, angry, bloviating, drunken old crank is her payment for a life poorly-spent.

We’ve got the DVDS around here.

I should rip them and make a homemade soundtrack.

This is rich. This vile woman wants power more than air. Someone with such a pathological degree of power lust should never have it. Never.

It’s very nice but shocking that Hillary would share her shrink’s diagnosis of her with us.

That describes her to a T.

Getting so tired of Democrat projection of their own misdeeds, and more so on the complicit media, including Fox now, for their covering for the Democrat lies and projections.

The sooner Hillary Clinton is dead, the better the world will be for it. The problem is Hell won’t have her, Satan doesn’t want the competition.
