| schestowitz | How is Hillary better than this KKK president? I really have to wonder about people who could ask that. | Nov 23 06:23 |
| schestowitz | Well for one thing, she certainly “understands the responsibility of being a POTU[S]”. better than this monster does. She was a diplomat, who believed in diplomacy unlike this monster who has left the diplomatic corps unstaffed. She didn’t go around talking about “fire and fury like the world has ever seen”, or wiping entire countries "off the map. She would not have appointed those neoliberal, corporate, Federalist Society, ALEC | Nov 23 06:23 |
| schestowitz | judges to complete the neoliberal corporate coup that the Republicans started under Ronald Reagan and are now completing. The Citizens United case was against her and they won 6-4. The next rightist corporate victory in SCOTUS may be 7-2 or 8-1, if the greater evil party continues it’s assault on the USA and the world. | Nov 23 06:23 |
| schestowitz | She did not “throw a party” over Gadaffi’s death, but she did make that horrible statement “we came we saw he died” and then chuckled about it. I guess that must be the incident you are exaggerating… | Nov 23 06:23 |
| schestowitz | Bernie was pushing her to the left, and she was more liberal than Obama to begin with. | Nov 23 06:23 |
| schestowitz | She wouldn’t have appointed that Nazi Stephen Miller, or that notorious neocon warmonger, John Bolton. | Nov 23 06:23 |
| schestowitz | But she was still a US imperialist just like every other successful Presidential candidate, just not as bad. You clearly prefer evils to be greater rather than lesser, and you love to gloat about those evil American people getting what they deserve. But there is much more at stake than the well being of the American people, anyway. You don’t seem to see that. | Nov 23 06:23 |
