With due respect, it is time for Hillary Clinton to be taken less seriously. Look at who she let win the presidency? A dynamic candidate that could connect with more voters could have flattened Trump. She came across as arrogant and entitled. She is a shrewd and intelligent person, but clearly disconnected from most normal concerns.

The candidate who delivered Trump his first term, still doubling down on her "deplorables" strategy 7 years later.

For the love of all that is, that has been, and that will be, get out and vote. Hillary opened her fucking mouth and the last time she did this shit Trump won. Every Democrat should now be rushing to the polls. The cycle is trying to repeat.

I think Godwin's Law now dictates that she has already lost the 2024 Presidential Election.

I'm not sure how historically accurate that is. I mean, Hitler was appointed, not elected right? NSDAP members were elected, that is how a parliamentary system works.

Also the 1933 German elections were the result of a massive campaign of violence and intimidation against opposition parties and voters. I would hardly call that "duly elected".

Think of it as like: if we had 100x as many Proud Boys in the US, and they were posted at every polling location to decide who gets to vote or not...

Considering her accuracy with him, this should make everyone who cares about the nation worried.

Are people seriously voting for trump? There is no reason other than authoritarianism. It's kinda disturbing.

As she defends neo-librealist neo-facism at home and neo-facists in Israel...

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
