Clinton: You can't be civil with a party that wants to destroy what you stand for

By Michael Burke - 10/09/18 11:58 AM EDT

Hillary Clinton on Tuesday said "civility can start again" in the United States only if Democrats win back the House or the Senate in November's midterm elections.

Clinton, who made the comments in an interview with CNN, added that "you cannot be civil with" the Republican Party because it "wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about."

"That's why I believe, if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and or the Senate, that's when civility can start again. But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength," Clinton said.

“And you heard how the Republican members, led my [Senate Majority Leader] Mitch McConnell [R-Ky.], the president, really demeaned the confirmation process, insulted and attacked not only Dr. Ford but women who were speaking out," she continued.

Clinton was referencing the confirmation process of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, which was upended by sexual misconduct accusations made by three women, including Christine Blasey Ford. Kavanaugh, who denied the allegations, was sworn in on Saturday following a 50-48 confirmation vote.

Clinton, the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee, also said that the Republicans have "put a lot of time, money, and effort in promoting" lies and falsehoods.

Democrats/globalists/socialists want productive Americans enslaved. Those of us who won’t accept slavery, they want killed. Thank God enough normal people realized in 2016 that you can’t be civil with a party that wants to destroy what you stand for. Thank God we won the election because we recognized the one truth Hillary has spoken in her life.

So, because you are out of power you can be uncivil, and willl only return to being civil when you are back in power???

Yes, makes perfect sense (rolling eyes)

If you are civili, you are civil... whether you get your way or not.

Standard comment by Cankles. “Accuse your opponent of what you yourself are doing” is their stock in trade.

“Russian collusion” anyone?

Said the evil woman representing the party that endorses unsubstantiated allegations of gang rape against an innocent man.

Wants??? Trump has already destroyed the obunghole/illary legacy. Was easy! Live by the EO, die by the EO:-) Take the tax Penalty out of obungholecare and offer limited Insurance for the young and viola, gone:-) Walk away from the Iran deal and Paris accord and viola, gone! Role back onerous regulation to handcuff the economy and viola, 3.7 unemployment and consumer and business confidence through the roof.

So no illary we aren’t trying to destroy all you stand for, we already have destroyed all you and your socialist ilk stand for!

She added: "So when you're dealing with an ideological party that is driven by the lust for power, that is funded by corporate interests who want a government that does its bidding, it's — you can be civil, but you can't overcome what they intend to do unless you win elections. . . ."-HRC

Does anyone notice how easily the tool of "projection" comes to Hillary's tongue?

Whatever she and her Progressive cultish followers are doing, or are involved in, she projects onto her opponents!

Hillary's is the "ideological" Progressive Party, driven by "the lust for power, that is funded by corporate interests who want a government that does its bidding." Yet, in her rhetoric, she recognizes it and labels the "other" Party as the one practicing it.

Is that how she arrived so quickly at accusing the Trump Adm. of "Russia" ties?

If the dems aren’t civil now, they won’t be civil in the future.

President Trump agreed with what the thuggess said, before she said it.

"The main base of the Democrats have shifted so far left that we’ll end up being Venezuela. This country would end up being Venezuela. I think a lot of Democrats are going to be voting voting Republican on Nov. 6," Trump told reporters at the White House before departing for a law enforcement event in Florida.

President Trump has drawn the line in our political sand and thrown this gauntlet down re future elections!

The hard part about the coming civil war is trying not to appear excited about it

Yup, I gave up being “civil” with them years ago

You can’t reason with idiots. The whole failure of their philosophies is right there in front of them, but the still don’t get it.

And that is stupidity+ Just defeat them at the polls, avoid their businesses and blue areas, and hire only conservatives or apathetics.

I will never set foot in a Target or purchase Nikes. I check for voter registrations, make my friends from church and organizations with conservatives. I only fast-food at Chik Fil A (thanks for the heads up in 2012, I had never been to one prior to the “boycott”)

Heck, I’m now up for a nice vacation to Maine’s Cong District 2

I’m getting a strong feeling that the next civil war women are going to start it. How sick are they?

Another excuse not to be civil. Democrats seem to want nothing else anyway.

Democrats blaming the victim.

The Dims were not civil, the last time they were in charge. Why should we expect them to be civil if they regain power in the future?
