  Should there be one? Contrary to the OP, most Democrats have moved on from Hillary. What's strange is that Republicans cant do the same. Damned if I thought more than twice about John McCain after the 2008 election and he was still an active senator making real news.

 

  It really speaks to the hollowness of Trumps victory that many of you all can't get past this.

Don’t remember John McCain going on an apology tour or trying to make money off his loss, Romney either.  Must be a Democrat thing.

So the root of your obsession is not the woman but the party.

They are one and the same

Last I heard they were one and the same.  Regardless, I am glad she is out there keeping it current, I never want the Dems, or the MDL to stop talking.

You’re more for a dictatorship?

Don't think that is what I said at all considering I don't want the MDL/Dems to shut-up.  Seems more like free speech to me.

Free speech but only one party in control. No balance.

Just pointing out the lack of response M.O.

Couldn't we say the same thing about your love for Trump?

 

Trump is more of a "current event" than Hillary, considering he is our current President. So talking about him frequently is more reasonable.

 

That being said, she needs to just stop talking about it and move on. She isn't doing herself any favours.

Hillary Clinton said after the 2016 election that her decision to label many Trump supporters “deplorables” was a “political gift” to President Trump.

Apparently, it's the gift that keeps on giving.

Clinton offered some rather unvarnished remarks in India this weekend that sound a lot like her “deplorables” commentary from September 2016. She played up the states that supported her as more economically advanced than the states that voted for Trump, calling them “dynamic” and “moving forward.” Then she again suggested Trump supporters were motivated by animosity toward women and people of color.

“If you look at the map of the United States, there's all that red in the middle where Trump won,” Clinton said. “I win the coast. I win, you know, Illinois and Minnesota — places like that.”

She went on: “But what the map doesn't show you is that I won the places that represent two-thirds of America's gross domestic product. So I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward.”

Unfortunately for Hillary, Trump isn't the only person who says things that should be just thought quietly. 

 

I'm sure plenty of other Democrats think the same way she does, but they realize they shouldn't say it out loud. Trump gets away with saying whatever he is thinking, no matter how offensive, because we've come to expect it of him and it's become the "status quo".
