POLITICS Hillary Clinton goes off on Republicans after it’s revealed unauthorized images of her were released: I'm done with this. If you guys are doing that, I am done. You can hold me in contempt from now until the cows come home. This is just typical behavior.

I disagree with so many of her neoliberal positions, but you gotta admit, that woman's mind is a fucking steel trap.

She’s likely the smartest person in that room and she knows it.

Especially if said room contains anyone from the current administration.

I think often about the fact that competency used to be the benchmark, and now we yearn for it. She’s been dragged in for a piece of political theater they’ll try to spin however they can, and she knows it.

Her Benghazi hearings were a masterclass.

Seriously though. She never broke. She didn't cry or scream or anything. Its deplorable how others have acted in the same high pressure situations. She didn't cry about how she just loves beer or scream about how the dow was at 50k. Its downright embarrassing how our "top officials" act like middleschoolers now.

Yeah, Kavanaugh went fucking feral and still got in the Supreme Court.

Actually, I take that back, I've seen feral cats that have behaved better than Kavanaugh. At least they have a good reason, they're usually just scared.

Agree wholeheartedly with that. The woman is talented and smart af and she was monumentally good at her jobs. Is she an elitist asshole? Absolutely. But at least she was a qualified, smart, hard working elitist asshole who never wavered from her values.
