    I genuinely, deeply, do not understand why anyone lets her speak on these things. I’m honestly very surprised that she wasn’t kicked out of Democrat inner circles for being such a fucking loser and just for sucking.

    She is quite literally the least qualified person on Earth to give advice on beating Donald Trump in an election. She’s the only person who’s lost an election to him! Why would you interview her on this? Why would anyone allow her to be involved in this campaign? The only things you should be asking her is “how does it feel to be history’s biggest loser?” I’m even more on the side of “the democrats want to lose” now, because why else would you take her advice?

    She really is uniquely unlikable, it’s almost impressive. She’s so good at saying the worst possible thing in any given moment. I truly can’t think of a worse answer than the one she gave if your goal is to get people to vote for your guy.

      It's worse than that. She actually built him up and made sure he'd be the Republican nominee. LOL. "The Pied Piper Strategy". Materially supporting the guy she now wants to convince everyone is literally the devil incarnate is worse than simply being "unqualified"; its downright depraved. Gaslighting of the highest order.

        "The Pied Piper Strategy".

        I am so angry at the naming of their little coup. It makes me sound like a nutjob for mentioning it to the libs who know nothing about the DNCs little (and ongoing with a different name) scam

          It doesn't matter. If you mention it to libs, they refuse to engage with it. I'm currently trying to get some moron on reddit to even read an article about it, and all they come back with is

            So??? She's just using Democrat resources to boost the craziest Republicans so everybody sees how crazy that party is and never votes for them again! smuglord

            . . . What do you mean they became the 4th Reich and are now more popular than ever? wojak-nooo

            Or even more awful, they'll acknowledge that they did it but say to look at how well it worked, which, by percentage it did for congressional elections, ignoring the fact that all it allowed them to do was run blue-dog Democrats in those districts. They are actively pushing everything to the right.

            Of course, these will be the same people who are convinced that we can push the Democrats left.

              I can't imagine being so BlueMaga as to be happy my campaign donations end up in the hands of the biggest psychos in the country.

              But I'm sure they can rationalize that too

      Money... she's probably so hooked into the fundraising loops that ostracizing her would risk the DNC and Democratic Party losing a fuckton of cash. And since we know that winning and losing don't really matter to the political parties, only that they can keep the donor money rolling in... shrug-outta-hecks

        That’s exactly what I mean though, why? Why don’t those fundraising loops kick her out for sucking so bad and being annoying?

        If you’re a mega-rich white liberal donor, why would a call from her make you donate that sweet sweet cash? The incredibly unlikable woman who lost the layup election to the scary orange man? I just can’t fathom her being an effective fundraiser.

          She lost to Trump but she is also literaly the wife of the last white good Dem president. Its all team sports along with personal connections. The people she influences are all people perpetually stuck between 1998-2008. Yes she lost to Trump but so what? Its not like the actual Dem leadership or wealthy core actualy lost anything, they're not even embarrassed, they have already admitted it was a fluke and/or it was the fault of those incompetent "pol science" guys Nate copper adjacent grifters.

          They keep telling themselves its all because they hired the wrong people, not because they suck as politicians etc.

          Also go back to the slogan, the people that support her unironicaly believe it was her turn, its not a slogan, its a real belief. I doubt that changed at all, she still "deserves it". Guess why? White, powerful, rich with a long resume and wife of their idol.

          Maybe they threaten their donors with a call from her? "Donate to the dems or else we'll get Clinton on the line."

          spitballing here: what if it's corruption stuff? Like if the Clinton Foundation was talking to Biden to make sure that you're the people they buy high fructose corn syrup from and you're also the one who gets to have mineral rights in Palestine, then you're throwing Biden $2,000,000 because Hilary asked for it.

    Hilary telling me to vote Biden? Oh yeah, I'm convinced. It's her turn to tell me to vote for Genocide Joe

    Blah, blah, blah.

    I guess she's probably trying to talk down at us again, but honestly all I hear is, "I once had literal house slaves."

    Who's this "Biden" guy? I thought we were supposed to vote for Ninety Nine Percent Hitler. Make up your mind, Democrats.

    Just mask off now, no more "democracy is where you choose your representative", now that quiet part is out loud, it's not your choice to make, "get over yourself"
