FLASHBACK: Hillary Clinton: 'Civility can start again' when Democrats retake Congress
Washington Times ^

Posted on 01/17/2019 5:25:33 AM PST by TigerClaws

Hillary Clinton said Tuesday Democrats cannot be civil unless they retake either the House or the Senate during midterms.

“You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for,” Mrs. Clinton said in an interview with Christiane Amanpour, “I believe if we are fortunate enough to take back the House and or the Senate, that’s when civility can start again.”

Mrs. Clinton listed a litany of political crimes she says Republicans committed, including some during the 2000 elections in Florida and against Sen. John McCain. She criticized the GOP for spreading “falsehoods” and “lies” that people believed about her.

The former secretary of state and 2016 Democratic nominee for president blamed Mitch McConnell and Trump for tainting the Supreme Court confirmation process and insulting female protestors.

She warned that the GOP is an “ideological party driven by a lust for power” and controlled by corporate interests.

“You can be civil but you can’t overcome what they intend to do unless you win elections,” she said.

It was ludicrous from the start. Socialists tend to be somewhat polite when they are weak, but once they gain power, watch out! You’ll have more purges, show trials and mass murder and less civility.

i.e. we’ll become civil when we are in charge, and not until then.

There are no words to describe how much I despise this brazen, phony woman, and all of her swamp-infested diatribes.

She and her criminal husband made billions off the backs of Americans using the system set up for OUR safety and security.

But that is still not enough for this power-mad beast.

The destructive pathology of these two has never before been seen on the public stage.

None are required. We understand.

It will become civil when that whole generation of narcissist activists are out of politics.

“ME, I SAVED THE WORLD. LOOK AT ME. I DID IT. I TRANSFORMED AMERICA. I BROUGHT JUSTICE TO THE WORLD. FINALLY. I AM THE ONE YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR.”

‘But, “why aren’t I 50 points ahead..”’

“You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for,”

Works both ways, sweetheart. Reckoning is coming.

Old cabbage stench needs to be locked up in GITMO or in a coffin due to whatever disease the wretched stench has....doesn’t matter much which one. Either will do just fine.

It’s beyond crazy.

There is a pathology going on, here.

For their conduct (together and individually) there exists no precedent or protocol in US political history.

This evil and vile woman is still insisting that Trump is a Russian puppet.

I think she (Her Highness), meant both Houses of Congress.

Until December 2018, the Democrats never met spending in a bill that they didn’t like. Now they’re all fiscally responsible statesmen that will spend a wanton dollar to scrupulously save a particular penny.
