‘Nobody Likes Him’: Hillary Clinton Risks a Party Split Over Bernie Sanders
The New York Times ^ | 1/21/2020 | Lisa Lerer and Sydney Ember

Posted on 01/21/2020 5:56:10 PM PST by Beave Meister

WASHINGTON — For three years, Hillary Clinton has watched the Democratic Party search for a path forward in the Trump era.

She’s watched as liberals and moderates clashed on how best to fight President Trump and a White House that was almost hers. She’s watched as some voters questioned the “electability” of the six women running for president, doubts that she once faced. She’s watched as Senator Bernie Sanders has risen, after his withering opposition to her in the 2016 presidential primary, to become the dominant liberal force in the 2020 race.

And she’d largely refrained from weighing in — until Tuesday morning, when The Hollywood Reporter published an interview with Mrs. Clinton promoting a new documentary about her that will premiere on Saturday at the Sundance Film Festival. In the documentary, she rips into Mr. Sanders and declines to say if she would endorse him and campaign on his behalf if he were to win the Democratic nomination.

“Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done. He was a career politician,” she said. “It’s all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it.” Asked by The Reporter recently if that assessment still held, she replied, “Yes, it does.”

Bernie beat Hillary in 22 states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, New Hampshire.

Bernie won 13 million votes & 1800 delegates against Hillary, so if nobody likes him, they really think she stinks.

It just cracks me up when one career politician who did nothing in her career attacks another career politician who did nothing in his career.

Ah yes the mask comes off Hillary. She is running... IS Running. Bernie is her competition and she’s trying to slaughter him with slander because she intends to be the front runner 90 days from now positined for a brokered convention with Hillary getting her 2nd chance.
It’s a miracle folks God wants me to win!
I can hear it now and it makes me wanna gag.

She has permitted the love of money and power into the most intimate reaches or her heart. When she meets, at her demise, the Father of Lies, she may for the first time learn despair

pray that before her death that she may learn Humility and Gratitude
that she would meet the source of all Healing and Grace And surrender herself

Eventually she will attack every Democrat candidate because she’s angling to be declared the nominee in a brokered convention. (saves her the trouble of going thru the primaries) The whole Ukraine thing is a Hillary op (orchestrated by her henchman Brennan thru his pawn Ciarmella) to damage Biden and Trump. She doesn’t give a damn about anything or anyone but her own overriding ambition to be dictator of the USA.

At one time Hillary knew how to get Bernie's attention. It worked. Now she's trying a different tactic.

The DNC went all-out and spent maybe $300 on a Seth Rich memorial bike rack. Keeps the others in line.

Nothing like a little Stalin vs. Trotsky to liven things up. I wonder if Bernie will unleash Tulsi on PIAPS again.

“...she was taken down by forces out of her control,”

Yes, the People of the United States took her down. May she ESAD.

I like Hillary. I’d like to see her suffer the same kind of fate some of her victims have suffered.

Well, toots, the feeling is the same toward you. You were the least-likable candidate in living memory.

Least likeable creature on the face of the earth.

I hope the Wicked Witch and Angry Santa cause a schism within the Demon-crat Party. While the two factions fight it out, President Trump would sail to reelection.
