My Thoughts Go Out to Hillary Today

From a military perspective the 1st wave of an assault often takes massive casualties. The Allied attack at Dieppe during WW2 came at great cost, but the lessons learned led to the successful assault at Normandy.

Hillary took on a fortified position defended by Putin, Comey, an enthralled MSM, and a candidate without shame. Her defeat led to 4 years of figuring out how to defeat this formidable position, now also defended by the power of the DOJ and the White House.

Joe and the Second Wave won. Thank you Hillary.

Your sacrifice will never be forgotten.

In that election everything was aimed at making it about one person, Hillary, something that she never did, ever. An over-the-top fictional Hillary that had nothing to do with the real person and her work as a public servant. She was left to deal with everything alone.

This time Democrats knew to aggressively present a unified party and have each others' backs. No third party threat, conspiracy theories and lies pretending to be "holding feet to the fire" from the Left that encouraged apathy and "both sides are the same" nipped in the bud. Many lessons learned.
