Poor Hillary Clinton. After she was devastatingly humiliated in 2016 when, as the “guaranteed winner” and “massive” favorite, she lost to non-politician, New York City businessman Donald J. Trump, one can only imagine how many hundreds of thousands of dollars she spent on therapy so she could finally get out of bed, put on her best pants suit, walk out her front door, and get back to looking down upon working-class Americans.
And lest we not forget, her thoroughly embarrassingly loss came after she conspired with the Obama White House, the Deep State, and the Obama Justice Department to frame Trump for “Russian Collusion.” More than that, her seismically crushing loss also came after almost all the media, academia, and Hollywood went in the tank for her, along with a great deal of the Republican establishment, afraid that Trump would think for himself and cast them and their corruption aside.
Poor Hillary Clinton. One can also easily imagine that right after she purposely stiffed her loyal supporters on election night, she slinked off to her mansion in Chappaqua, New York, where she sat on the floor of her bedroom, rocking back and forth as she began working her way through a crate of Oreo cookies and bottles of wine while cutting out paper dolls while pausing periodically to stare up at the ceiling and scream out in rage to the election Gods: “Why? Why? How could that basket of deplorables defeat me? How?”
But within that imagined -- never accepting any responsibility -- histrionics, we see the answer she refuses to acknowledge. Back in 2016, Clinton snobbishly and dismissively called Trump supporters a “Basket of Deplorables.” Note to Hillary Clinton: I don’t know of any hard-working, taxpaying American struggling to survive who likes to be insulted by a presidential candidate seeking their vote. Additionally, I can assure Mrs. Clinton that those same “Deplorable” Americans living paycheck-to-paycheck are more than bright enough to realize that you don’t insult coal miners and the coal industry when you are trying to win the crucial state of Pennsylvania.
Flash ahead to 2024, and Clinton has dialed up the crazy to a point where some are truly concerned about her mental wellbeing. During an interview with the Kamala Harris supporting CNN, Mrs. Clinton compared former President Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden to a “neo-Nazi” rally. Wow. She has gone from calling Trump supporters a “basket of deplorables” to “Nazis.”
Clinton said in part during the interview: “One other thing that you’ll see next week… is Trump re-enacting the Madison Square Garden rally in 1939…President Franklin Roosevelt was appalled that neo-Nazis, fascists in America, were lining up to essentially pledge their support for the kind of government that they were seeing in Germany. So, I don’t think we can ignore it. It may be a leap for some people, and many others may think, ‘I don’t want to go there. I don’t want to say that.’ But please open your eyes to the danger that this man poses to our country because I think it is clear and present for anybody paying attention.”
Okay. So, let me get this straight. If one happens to hold a political rally in Madison Square Garden, then no matter the facts on the ground, that is a reenactment of a “Neo-Nazi” rally in 1939?
But wait a minute. Then by Hillary Clinton’s own definition, that makes her and Bill Clinton “Nazis.”
As Karoline Leavitt, the national press secretary for former President Trump’s campaign, reminds us, Bill and Hillary Clinton held a political rally at Madison Square Garden. Said Leavitt in part: “Hillary Clinton is so messed up from her raging 8-year-long case of anti-Trump derangement syndrome that she forgot SHE did an event at Madison Square Garden when she was a Senator, and her husband Bill accepted the Democrat nomination there. Putting aside her hypocrisy, Hillary’s rhetoric about half of the country is disgusting."
Indeed, it is. But it’s much more than just “disgusting.” It’s blindingly stupid.
Barack Obama – Hillary’s co-conspirator against Trump – was fond of spouting the quote attributed to Albert Einstein: “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
Does that mean that Obama may now worry that Hillary is drifting ever so closely to “Insanity?” In 2016 she insulted tens of millions of American voters by calling them a “basket of deplorables.” In 2024, she is “doing the same thing over and over again” by calling those same voters “Nazis.”
It has seemed obvious to many that Hillary Clinton’s loss to Donald Trump in 2016 severely damaged her mind. She may have to be institutionalized after Trump’s victory on November 5th.
