This is what my wife said after watching on Rachel the fact that John Huber, the hit man Session appointed to go after Hillary basically came up empty. Republicans were screaming someone needs to go after her because, well, it's Hillary.
Mrs. Clinton. I will always appreciate the fact that you were willing to take on the right wing hate machine for the good of my family, and the world. If only the FBI, Russians, and e-mail obsessed "reporters" would have behaved like non scum so you could be making the planet better, rather than watching the daily sh*t show from your couch.
Hillary is truly lucky she doesn't have to suffer the Trey Gowdy's of this world every second of every day. Investigating her Christmas Card List and all the other horrible horrible actions you would have taken. Impeaching you for getting out of bed every single day.
Wishing you well Hillary.
We are collectively sorry we didn't do more when we had the opportunity to help you.
God Bless from Seattle.

(9,966 posts)... when I mention what the investigations against Hillary Clinton. My favorite is to remind them how everyone shouted "Aha!" when they discovered her fingerprints on her own Rose Law Firm records. Imagine that - her fingerprints on her records! I go on to the Trey Dowdy stuff and end with, "They could charge her with anything. She must be the cleanest politician in history!"

(81,461 posts)With everything the bad guys ha we tried to throw at her, youd think theyd have found something-anything. They keep coming up empty, time after time of throwing everything theyve got at her. And still she prevails.
Whats that saying about how you define insanity? Something about doing the same thing over and over and over again but somehow expecting a different result?

(5,943 posts)The 2016 election was doomed to produce a national shitshow no matter who won. With tens of millions of Deplorables driven into a frothing frenzy, and Republican politicians hell-bent on going beyond obstructionism to the point of governmental sabotage and even treason, the nation was doomed to the sort of dumpster fire we now watch in horror whether Trump or Hillary gained the office.
I've often thought to myself that, although the 2016 election was a tragedy for the nation and the world, the outcome was the luckiest break possible in Hillary Clinton's personal life. My hope for the near future is that, as Donald Trump drowns in this cesspool of his own making, he drags the obscenely destructive right-wing propaganda machine down with him.

(14,176 posts)But she would have already been impeached by now, in her first year. Maybe not removed, but I wouldn't have put it past them.
And she would be living a living hell every day with Fox News, and the GOP mouthpieces, and internet trolls, inventing new fake scandals. And don't forget the MSM would never have had Trump as president, and would be full speed ahead with their tried and tested "false equivalency" and would be having on all kinds of character assassinaters like KAC to put nails in coffins.. Hell, it took Chuck Todd 2 years STILL to get woke about Trump Republicans even with him in office! He would be in full denial right now chugging along with Republicans.
You think Obama had it bad? Hillary would be under relentless attacks if she'd been declared the winner. Trump would have still been tweeting every day against her. And the MSM would be taking every tweet as an "important development". He'd be still having rallies for 2020, only using fresh new fake scandals based on her first term.
And there'd be even less enthusiasm for securing the elections from Russian interference. And with only a 'moderate' vision, and any new progressive ideas, including a Medicare for All deemed as "never gong to happen", she'd be in an uphill battle against a once denied Trump cult that would have only grown, especially without any of the gaffes in office on his record, and a full time campaign going from day one.

(217 posts)The movie is free for prime members. It recounts the abusive inquisition
of the Clintons by Ken Starr and tells the sad story of Susan McDougal who was put in prison for year because she would not sign false testimonials about the Clintons written by Starr prosecutors.
btw the book by the same name is much better than the movie.

(333 posts)I saw very few headlines about this, the media is too busy feeding and choking on trump! From now until election Chief News Editors (by order of their CEO's) across this nation and overseas will subjugate every news story to anything that has to do with trump. Every lead off story has to begin and end with trump. And when I say every station that includes msmbc and others that routinely criticize trump. Because even criticism is good for trump. This is what they did before the last election. No story went untold if it had anything to do with trump. The media got trump elected in 2016 and the media will get him elected again. THE MEDIA LOVES TRUMP, EVEN THE ONES TO CRITICIZE HIM.
