(80,693 posts)At this point shes a non-combatant. Shes no longer a factor, as they say in aviation circles. Why do they feel they MUST torment her? For Petes sake, were almost at the end of 2020! This is NOT Campaign 2016!
CRIMINY! What on earth did she ever do to them?????????
I really feel for Hillary Clinton. She NEVER deserved this shit! And she would have been a TERRIFIC President. Especially when compared to what we got stuck with, instead.

(20,809 posts)statement, a parody of how anti-Hillary the media often is and its relentless focus on and obsession with Dems and progressives always having to "reach out" to the other side with no vice versa expectation.
calimary
(80,693 posts)whenever somebody attacks Hillary. I just default straight into battle-stance.
She got a RAW deal.
She faced what many of us women who were on the frontlines, pushing the boundaries of what women were perceived as able to do (or "allowed to do" ) back in the day. I got my share of shit too, but in a MUCH smaller set of venues. Being one of the first to break into what became my chosen field, back in the 1970s was exhilarating, but also disappointing for what I encountered. And, again, I'm WAY small-time compared to the mountains Hillary had to move, and to climb, and to face.
And I'd defy any of her naysayers to be honest enough to admit that Hillary would have been a COLOSSALLY better President. Absolute Torch 'n' Twang LIGHTYEARS better.

I dont doubt that in the future members of the upcoming Biden Administration will be confronted at dinner or walking down the street; since that became the "cool" thing to do with the trumpettes.

(778 posts)In 2016, when the chant was originally popular, their answers would be because of Benghazi or the email server. They didn't know anything about Benghazi or that diplomats have been killed in the past, but that was their excuse.
Now I would imagine it is because of all the lies of qanon. You know. Child sacrifices and child sex slave trade and things pimped by Alex Jones and others. Besides President Obama, Hillary Clinton, etc. are supposed to be leaders of it.
Personally I think they are just crazy and stupid and evil people.

I got the FREEDumb to say whatever I want.

IowaGuy
(776 posts)while she was a candidate for President here in Iowa. She was having a backyard listening event in our quiet neighborhood area. A few dozen people attending. The SS was in days earlier casing the place, clearing it. checking manhole covers, sewers, you name it. The level of weaponry, security personnel they brought in is incredible and not readily apparent to the casual civilian. Most of these guys are not wearing a suit and an earbud. Those guys are largely for show. It was not readily apparent what a lot of the equipment they unloaded was, but some of those black cases, looked to be carrying RPG's and even bigger weaponry. They got all sorts of electronic jamming equipment, etc.. These are not Meal Team 6 gun humpers strutting around with their plastic assault rifle they bought on sale from Wal-Mart.
Believe me, those dumb ass yahoos were in sniper scopes before they ever got out of their cars.
I also volunteered for the Kerry campaign years ago and often was inside the security bubble. My job was nothing big ...basically just making sure press had donuts, coffee, had modem access for filing their stories, stuff like that. To get inside the bubble, I would have to arrive 8-10 hours earlier at the event, go through 3 separate perimeters of security getting, id'd, checked off on a pre-approved list, scanned, searched, etc each time. I would then having nothing to do for hours until the event started. During that time, the SS advance team would be swarming the area checking every little thing out with bomb sniffing equipment, you name it, mutliple times. Occasionally I would try and engage them in some friendly banter....not a talkative bunch at all.... ice cold dudes with thousand yard stares. Completely focused on their jobs and will not be distracted in any way. The average redneck yahoo that thinks they could take these guys on doesn't even know what he doesn't know.

Bengus81
(6,907 posts)Clinton was here in Wichita dedicating a Welfare to Work site that Cessna Aircraft had set up with that program. Only welfare people could apply and get hired. So...a 17 year old working at a burger joint (of course parroting his parents hate for Clinton) said something along the lines of shooting Clinton, or Clinton would be better off dead to one of his buddies working there.
Customers overheard it, called it in and the KBI and then FBI showed up. That punk got to spend a couple of days in a lock up facility for juveniles and wasn't let out until AF1 cleared Kansas airspace.
He lived across the street and down a bit from a guy I was working with and we started calling his work place Assassin Burger.
