Hillary Clinton offers cautionary tale about this election 06:34
Good evening.
After the last election, I said, "We owe Donald Trump an open mind and the chance to lead." I really meant it. Every president deserves that. And Trump walked into the Oval Office with so much set up for him: A strong economy. Plans for managing crises—like a pandemic. (SO, SINCE DAY ONE YOU DIDN’T ATTACK HIM, HE DID NOT WIN ETC)—(HIDE)
Yes, we Democrats would have disagreed with him on many, many things. But if he had put his own interests and ego aside—if he could have seen the humanity in a child ripped from her parents at the border or a protester calling for justice or a family whose home was destroyed by a wildfire who happened to live in a blue state—if he had even tried to govern well and lead us all—he might have proved us wrong. And that would have been a good thing, for America and the world. (THOUGHT YOU VOTED AGAINST ILLEGALS ?)
I wish Donald Trump had been a better president. Because America needs a better president than this. (Bill never touched the number Trump put up, what are you talking about---foundations maybe?)
America needs a president who shows the same compassion, determination, and leadership in the White House that we see in our communities. Throughout this crisis, Americans have kept going—checking on neighbors, showing up to jobs at grocery stores and nursing homes. Because it still takes a village.
We need leaders equal to this moment. We need Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. (YOU LIKE HARRIS BECAAUSE SHE REMINDS YOU OF YOURSELF YEARS AGO)
Everyone has a story about Joe's thoughtfulness and empathy. I remember him calling after my mother, Dorothy, died. We talked about being raised by strong, no-nonsense women. When I walked with him through the house where he grew up in Scranton, he remembered every detail—about the house, the neighborhood, the people who lived there, and the values they shared. There is no better testament to Joe's character than his family—including his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, who has said she will keep her teaching job as First Lady. That's outstanding.
And boy, did Joe, pick the right partner in Kamala Harris—another daughter of an extraordinary mother. Kamala is relentless in the pursuit of justice, and uncommonly kind. When her press secretary Tyrone Gayle, a remarkable young man who had also worked on my campaign, was dying of cancer, she dropped everything to be with him in his final moments. Because that's who she is. (BUT WHAT HAS SHE DONE?)
I know a thing or two about the slings and arrows coming her way. Kamala can handle them all. (SO WHAT ARE THOSE SLINGS AND ARROWS—PUT THEM ON THE TABLE)
This is the team to pull our nation back from the brink and build back better. But they can't do it without all of us.
For four years, people have said to me, "I didn't realize how dangerous he was." "I wish I could go back and do it over." "I should have voted." This can't be another woulda-coulda-shoulda election. If you're voting by mail, request your ballot now, and send it back as soon as you can. If you vote in person, do it early. Bring a friend and wear a mask. Become a poll worker. (SO HOW MANY BNALLOTS WE THE DEMS SEND TO PEOPLE WHO NO LONGER LIVE THERE, OR THAT ARE “DEAD”—I’D GUESS A COUPLE MILLION)
Most of all, no matter what, vote. And convince everyone you know to vote.
Remember in 2016 when Trump asked: "What do you have to lose?" Well, now we know: our health, our jobs, even our lives. Our leadership in the world and, yes, our post office. As Michelle Obama and Bernie Sanders warned us on Monday: If Trump is re-elected, it will get even worse. My friends, we need unity now more than ever. (RIGHT WE WILL NOT BECOME A SOCIALIST NATION---DEPENT ON THE GOV FOR EVERYTHING!!!)
But let's set our sights higher than getting one man out of the White House. Let's vote for the jobs Joe will create, and for emergency relief that lifts small businesses and hardworking people. Because it's wrong that the wealthiest Americans got $400 billion richer during the pandemic while 40 million people lost their jobs. (TUNNEL VISION)
Vote for parents struggling to balance their child's education and their safety. And for health care workers fighting COVID-19 with no help from the White House. Vote for paid family leave and health care for everyone. Vote to protect Social Security, Medicare, reproductive rights, and our planet. ( ALL YOU GOT TO ATTACK WITH IS THE COVID-19 SICKNESS----YOU SURE AS HELL COULDN’T HAVE DONE ANY BETTER)
Vote for DREAMers and their families. For law enforcement that serves and respects communities of color. Vote for justice for George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, because Black Lives Matter. (WHAT THE HELL ABOUT WHITE LIFES MATTER, POLICEMAN LIFES MATTER, STORE OWNERS LOOTED AND KILLED, ROBBED, NOW OUT OF BUSINESS, I GUESS THEY BE CALL UNEMPLOYED WOULDN’T THEY---BACK AT YOU)
Vote to make sure we—not a foreign adversary—choose our president.(YOU MEAN LIKE THE BILLIONS TO A CERTAIN COUNTRY IN THE EAST)
Vote for the America we saw in the roll call last night: diverse, compassionate, full of energy and hope. Vote like our lives and livelihoods are on the line, because they are.
Remember: Joe and Kamala can win 3 million more votes and still lose. Take. It. From. Me. We need numbers so overwhelming Trump can't sneak or steal his way to victory. So text VOTE to 30330 and let's go win. (STILL HURTS DOES IT HILLARY, THE BEST LAID PLANS ETC)
One hundred years ago yesterday, the 19th Amendment was ratified. It took seven decades of suffragists marching, picketing, and going to jail to push us closer to that more perfect union. Fifty-five years ago, John Lewis marched and bled in Selma because that work was unfinished. (AND YET YOU FORGET WHO HAS VOTED AGAINST THE REPEAL OF SLAVERY, DO YOU REMEMBER BYRD?)
Tonight I am thinking of the girls and boys who see themselves in America's future because of Kamala Harris—a Black woman, the daughter of Jamaican and Indian immigrants, and our nominee for Vice President of the United States. This is our country's story: breaking down barriers and expanding the circle of possibility.
So to all the young people: Don't give up on America. Despite our flaws and problems, we have come so far. And we can still be a more just and equal country, full of opportunities previous generations could never have imagined. (FREE STUFF TOO)
There's a lot of heartbreak in America right now—and the truth is, many things were broken before the pandemic. But, as the saying goes, the world breaks everyone at one point or another, and afterward, many are stronger in the broken places. Joe Biden knows how to heal, because he's done it himself.
So come November, we will be strong together. We will heal together. We will redeem the soul and promise of this country together. We will elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris—together. (THE END)

A crooked Zombie, endorsed by crooked Hillary. The greatest moment in the Trump vs Hillary debate and had the longest applause was when Donald Trump responded to Hillary with"because you would be in jail." That IS where she belongs.

That was her speech? It read like "Kiss my ass, you weren't smart enough to choose me!" I noticed she kept Benghazi and Ovomit out. No way to make those look even one quarter like she wasn't a TRAITOR!!!!!!!

No, she belongs at a firing squad begging for her life only it's too late. The drum has started.
