So, here I am in Alternate 2018, having to think hard about whether I really was all that happy that I'd gotten my way in 2016 and Hillary Clinton was actually president. The year since she took office has been a series of insane dumpster fires. /1
Multiple Clinton WH aides are under indictment. At least a dozen Russians, too. Some are cooperating with the FBI. The Democrats in the House are openly interfering in the work of GOP special counsel, a former FBI Director of impeccable character. /2
The economy is good, mostly because a small minority in Congress had thwarted Clinton's kookiest schemes, but now a liberal protectionist war with China threatens the rural and Rust Belt Americans Clinton hates so much. /3
To add insult to injury, Hillary then had the brass to advocate for helping China's dictatorial president make more tech jobs - in *his* country. WH aides rushed to contain the damage. Too late, as they were busy spinning their own loathsome comments about GOP Sen McCain. /4
And like clueless liberal she is, Clinton is making deals with dictators. The Russians own Syria - which again paid no real price for using WMD, due to her feckless grandstanding. The Russians are laughing at us. As is China. /5
Worst of all, the North Koreans, proving that hostage-taking works, bamboozled her into a summit that no one thinks is a good idea except the North Koreans. They get to keep their nukes, and then shake hands with the President. She might as well have sent Albright again. /6
Sure, she cancelled Obama's Iran Deal...but no one really can explain why, except that she seems to be doing the bidding of the Israelis, which is what her craziest, right-wing, anti-Semitic opponents warned us she would do as President. /7
In fact, she seems determined to start another Middle East conflict, which Trump and everyone else said she would. Maybe they were right. It's almost like she could have just hired John Bolton for all it matters now. /8
And her nasty personality is now on full display. There isn't anyone in America, except her most loyal voters, that she hasn't picked a fight with. But she's tight with Kanye West, which is what you'd expect from an identity politics leftist like her. /9
And, oh, man, the budget. Just as Trump's voters warned us, she gave a tax cut to big companies and coastal elites. She handed millions to Planned Parenthood. She's inflated the budget deficit beyond comprehension. /10
Aides are resigning faster than she can hire them. Leaks are rampant and vicious in a totally dysfunctional WH. She's mired in scandal, to the point where no decent lawyer will touch her, so she's had to fall back on old NYC pals like Rudy Giuliani. /11
Meanwhile, the scope of her financial shenanigans grows. Her abuses of spending on herself, and FEC violations, along with ties to the Russians, mount up./12
Fortunately, the Republicans in Congress are protecting the Constitution by demanding accountability. They're demanding that she talk to the Special Counsel, just as her husband had to. They're supporting requests for information. They're backing Federal law enforcement. /13
It's all so ghastly. Maybe Trump would have been a better choice. /14x
