Hillary Clinton carries a grudge the way a new mother
carries her baby: lovingly and in a protective embrace. She’ll probably carry
this one to her grave. Were it possible to run for president as an infant, she
would’ve cradled it from cradle to grave. During her commencement address to
graduating Yale students recently, she made yet another (“joking”) reference to
Russians helping President Trump defeat her in the election of 2016: “Now I see
looking out at you that you are following the tradition of over the top hats,”
she intoned, “So, I brought a hat too.” She then pulled out a Russian “ushanka”
hat and briefly put it on, saying, “A Russian hat, right? Look, I mean, if you
can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em!” Her audience applauded and cheered. Sad, nyet?
This
was at once appalling and pathetic, as it now appears that the Clinton
Foundation and the Obama administration were the only ones heartily colluding
with the Russkies. Even more hypocritically, she went on to list what she
purports to be the dangers to democracy: “Waging a war on the rule of law and a
free press, de-legitimizing elections, perpetrating shameless corruption, and
rejecting the idea that our leaders should be public servants undermines our
national unity.” She also stated, apparently without biting the insides of her
cheek with the force of a crocodile latching onto a large fish, “There are
certain things that are so essential they should transcend politics.”
At
which point, utterly unable to transcend politics, she admitted that she was
not over her surprise loss in the 2016 presidential election that she has ever
since tried to de-legitimize. To the Clintons, nothing transcends politics. Bill Clinton believed that interns
should be leader’s servants, possibly
in public, wink, wink, nudge, nudge. He didn’t care about de-legitimizing
elections, but was furious if a woman attempted to de-legitimize his erection. “Shameless corruption” is now
an actual synonym for “Clinton.”
Just a
couple of days after her performance at Yale, Clinton matriculated to Hofstra
University in New York, and delivered an impassioned speech praising women’s
influence- and participation- in politics… before officially endorsing Andrew
Cuomo for that state’s governor over his opponent Cynthia Nixon. Ironically,
she remarked that women “are making their voices heard like never before” this
election year. Is this the smartest woman who ever trod the surface of the
planet? Or just another bureaucrat…in a hat?
