Greenfield: Hillary Clinton is Delusional, Hateful and Insane

Hillary Clinton is Delusional, Hateful and Insane May 28, 2017 Daniel Greenfield

New York Magazine's love letter to Hillary is an embarrassment even to an already biased media. Its thesis is that Hillary Clinton is a victim of sexism. It's littered with absurd photos of a Hillary in yellow striding around campaign headquarters stiffly sorting through mail from her fans. And it gives Hillary a forum to be as delusional as she wants.

But this was an election that was, in many ways, about anger. And Trump and Sanders capitalized on that.

“Yes.” Clinton nods. “And I beat both of them.”

Okay then.

She argues, “what I was doing was working. I would have won had I not been subjected to the unprecedented attacks by Comey and the Russians, aided and abetted by the suppression of the vote, particularly in Wisconsin.”

All that voter suppression in a state she chose not to campaign in. A state that Bernie Sanders also won. A state with a 6.3% black population. But let's not forget the FBI and the Russians who prevented black people in Wisconsin from voting.

When I ask Clinton about the eagerness to blame her and her alone for the election result, she gets impatient. “Oh, I don’t know, you’d have to talk to a psychologist about it. There’s always, what’s that word … Schadenfreude — ‘cut her down to size,’ ‘too big for her own britches’ — I get all that. But I don’t see this being done to other people who run, particularly men. So I’m not going to engage in it. I take responsibility, I admit that I’m not a perfect candidate — and don’t know anybody who was — but at the end of the day we did a lot of things right and we weathered enormous headwinds and we were on our way to winning. So that is never going to satisfy my detractors. And you know, that’s their problem.”

Yes, you would have to talk to a psychologist to understand why Hillary and New York Magazine assume a candidate shouldn't take the full blame for an election defeat. It's clearly sexism.

Having been on the receiving end of the right’s anger for decades, Clinton knows from relentless hate. They still chant “Lock her up” at Trump rallies, just as they did at the New York Stock Exchange as she gave her concession speech. “You know, these guys on the other side are not just interested in my losing, they want to keep coming after me. I mean, think about that for a minute. What are they so afraid of? Me, to some extent. Because I don’t die, despite their best efforts. But what [really drives them] is what I represent.”

Maybe it's because Hillary Clinton committed a series of crimes. But maybe she has a point. It's what she represents.

1. A political dynasty

2. A wealthy privileged politician who thinks she's above the law

3. Unfettered abuse of authority by the left

"But she acknowledges that the message is more difficult than ever to get across: “We’re up against suppression, we’re up against an even greater domination of the media by the right."

Domination of the media by the right? That's right.

“The cable networks seem to me to be folding into a posture of, ‘Oh, we want to try to get some of those people on the right, so maybe we better be more, quote, evenhanded.’ ” When I mention MSNBC’s hiring of conservatives including George Will, and the New York Times’ new climate-change-skeptic opinion columnist, Bret Stephens, her brow furrows. “Why … would … you … do … that?” she says. “Sixty-six million people voted for me, plus, you know, the crazy third-party people. So there’s a lot of people who would actually appreciate stronger arguments on behalf of the most existential challenges facing our country and the world, climate change being one of them!"

Will and Stephens are anti-Trumpers. That's why they were hired. But they dissent to some degree from the left's positions. So, according to Hillary, they shouldn't be allowed a voice. No one except the radical left should.

This is the totalitarian mindset of the left. This is why so many voted against her. They weren't just voting against Hillary. They were voting for freedom.

Delusional seems like a good description without getting too graphic. Not hard to see why she lost the election.

Delusional, Hateful, and Insane. It sounds like a singing group. Once there was Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Now there’s Delusional, Hateful, Insane, & Old.

Whenever, I read or hear about the latest rants from Hilliarly, my tagline becomes even more valid.

All of her excuses for why she lost the election... does she not understand that for months hundreds of thousands of Christians were praying around the clock — literally 24/7 — that she would LOSE? That we covered Election Day with prayer? That America would be rescued? She never considers that God answers prayer.

NOW they notice this?
Hillary was a dishonest intern, a shady, if not outright crooked lawyer, a corrupt first lady in both Arkansas and DC, an inconsequential Senator, and incompetent and/or corrupt Secretary of State. She is an accessory to rape, and a nasty, vindictive creature.
My biggest question is why anyone would vote for her in the first place.

I like to think folks were praying that God’s will be done in the election. I think it was.

God has always blessed the USA. His blessings continue with President Trump. We didn’t “dodge the bullet with Killary. God chose to bless us with Trump. And for that I thank Him everyday.

I think we’re getting close to seeing Hillary’s “Captain Queeg” moment: “Ahh, but the Russians that’s... that’s where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that collusion between Trump and the Russians DID exist, and I’d have produced that proof if they hadn’t of pulled the Scooby Van out of action. “

Hitlery lost because she is a venomous harridan.

Her post-election behavior amply demonstrates her manifold flaws.

We dodged a VERY LARGE bullet when Hitlery the venomous harridan lost!

Lemme sum it up for her. She’s morally evil, mentally insane and too many people hate her guts. She hated decent Americans and they hated her right back. Hate defeated her.

unprecedented attacks by Comey

Comey, oh that guy who the demonrats hated until that big meanie Trump fired him. They can't make up their minds on anything except that Hellary lost because of the everything under the sun but her own low ratings.

What is truly enlightening is how weak the Democratic Party is.

No Democrat with any standing has openly opposed Hillary I in a meaningful way.

WHY?

Hillary still runs the party, which tells me how weak the party has to be if she can still run it.

She desperately grasps at straws to prevent the loss of her financial backers. What makes her appear goofy is her hope that people will actually buy into her nonsense. Greed is the prevailing motive.

Okay, so here's what I walk away with from this piece (it's a good read but this sticks in my mind); Hillary: we worked so hard to make the media an arm of the liberal left and now some of them are being forced to stop pushing our narrative 24/7 because of ratings.
