Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton joins Morning Joe to discuss the stakes of the 2024 presidential election, her impressions of the Jan. 6 insurrection and why she says the race is a contest between freedom and oppression and autocracy and democracy.
Oppression and autocracy that she partially enabled by thinking she could phone in her victory. She should just go away. Nobody wants to hear from her anymore.
I don’t think she phoned it in. She ran a campaign that was ineffective against DT because she assumed things like competence and experience mattered.
She couldn’t be bothered to go to – or even send staffers to – Michigan. https://www.politico.com/story/2016/12/michigan-hillary-clinton-trump-232547 Then repeat basically the same laziness with Pennsylvania and Wisoconson https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/11/trumps-road-to-victory/507203/ because she assumed the Rust Belt would just vote for her.
She demonstrably phoned it in.
Ah, the misogynistic punching bag that the left and right share. How noble it must feel to attempt to shout her down.
Honestly, her gender is one of the few things I actually respect about her.
She’s an entrenched neo-lib who thought herself so entitled to the presidency that she got her conference to shut down campaigns that actually had a chance while simultaneously neglecting to consider that the Midwest and rust belt exist and have legitimate grievances with the Democratic party.
“It was her turn” fucking ruined the Democrats.
If she was a man and had the same attitude, we’d all be shitting on him just the same.
It was her entitlement, not the fact that she’s a woman.
Oh no, someone please think about the poor white millionaire’s feelings.
I mean, kinda easily proven wrong by how much people love and rally around Harris. It was Clinton’s condescending attitude and dearth of actual effort that soured people on her. It felt like she didn’t care about the country at all, and just wanted to sit in the big seat.
Contrast to Harris, who expresses, you know, actual care and understanding for what people are going through, and suggests concrete plans even for the little things.
