Hillary Clinton is a GREAT American patriot and would have been the BEST president of ALL time

[Eliot Rosewater]

or one of them.

GREAT patriot!


Would have had the MOST progressive administration in HISTORY!

[mcar]

1. Happy to kick this

It makes me ill to think of what we could have had and how low we've sunk.

[marmar]

2. "MOST progressive administration in HISTORY!"

A Hillary Clinton administration would be orders of magnitude superior to the current shitshow, but let's not go off the deep end.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

6. She has proven over her career that she will try for the big pie, but work for pieces

She's worked for progressive goals her entire career. Every time she was blocked, she worked to get pieces of the original goal, incrementally advancing for people. See, e.g., education, discrimination, health care.

3. KnR

Absolutely.

[edhopper]

4. She might have been very good.

But if the Senate and House stayed Republican, she would not have accomplished much.

Remember, the 2018 mid-terms were so good for the Dems because of Trump.

[Eliot Rosewater]

5. WE wouldnt be dying...

[Budi]

8. K& R. that demeaning reasoning needs to disappear.

Hillary stands on a level far higher than many will ever achieve in their lifetime. In fact they cannot even recognize such a place.

To put her Name in the same sentence as Trump & his hateful kind is slanderous at best.

[edhopper]

9. Absolutely

she would have been a very good President.
But with a GOP Congress she would not have been able to pass the type of sweeping reform needed for her to be great.

[progressoid]

21. Yep. The first two years would have been investigations 24/7.

[aaaaaa5a]

7. She won the vote. She lost because of outdated rules

In what other democracy can you beat your opponent by nearly 3 million votes and lose?

She should be our President now. And the country certainly would be a lot better off if that were the case.

[Demsrule86]

10. Hillary is and always was progressive...may those that didn't vote for her rot in hell...

She would have been a wonderful president...and 126,000 Americans would not be dead if she was president.

[Eliot Rosewater]

11. Greg Palast recaps the votes that were not allowed to be counted like in Detroit

He didnt win.

And he wont win this time, but will that matter anymore?

[brer cat]

12. K&R

Thanks for the thread, Eliot.

[Eliot Rosewater]

13. UR welcome. I am listening right now rump saying our intel are wrong and putin

is correct, older audio.

Problem with that is if you dont PUBLICLY DENOUNCE him, you support him.

If you dont denounce his willingness to help putin kill our soldiers, you support it.

Amazing how despicable the deplorables are, isnt it.

[ProfessorGAC]

14. Or One Of Them

Glad you added that.
I think she would have been outstanding, but better than Lincoln, FDR, Washington, or even Obama?
But, if she was in that group, that would automatically be in the great category.

[Eliot Rosewater]

16. Had she not had it stolen by our enemy working with the GOP, and had she

had control of both houses like FDR she likely would have been the most progressive.

You cant compare to FDR only because of the obvious SS creation, and thank god for that.

[ProfessorGAC]

17. Managing The Depression

Lend lease. (Fighting a war without fighting a war is pretty clever, AND it stimulated the heavy manufacturing sector)
Decision to fund Manhattan.
Ww2.
Also, all pretty big.
And, like everyone else, she wouldn't be fault free. The rest I mentioned had their foibles. But, the good massively outweighed overcame missteps.

[triron]

20. exactly

[Hortensis]

15. Well, we know she would have been a very good president of

the kind we needed, after 40 years of domestic decline under conservative domination. And still do.
I like Warren a LOT, but her "I have a plan" prep for big solutions to fix and advance America was not more impressive in its ambitions, just different in some approaches, and mostly much less carefully developed, than Hillary's.

[R B Garr]

18. Yes! She did not deserve the constant smears and why

I’ll always call out those groups who lied about her. Look what it cost us.

[ffr]

19. And a prognosticator. She saw right through tRump, calling him Putin's Puppet

She would have been one of the greats for sure. Instead look where we are!!! An entire political party of conservatives working to shield tRump and Putin, while Putin has a price on the heads of our troops! This doesn't get any more treacherous than that. Republicans should be stripped of their citizenship and put on trial.
