Hillary Clinton: Free Thinking Republicans Are a Direct Threat to US Democracy

Hillary Clinton warns free-thinking Republican politicians pose a direct threat to U.S. democracy

Hillary Clinton has warned that free thinkers in American politics represent a direct threat to U.S. democracy.

According to the twice-failed presidential candidate, Republicans who refuse to toe the party line and who hope to win elections are a clear and present danger to America.

“I’m astonished that more people don’t see, or can’t face, America’s existential crisis,” she tweeted, alongside a screenshot taken from an article in the far-left Atlantic. The article warned readers about the dangers of allowing non-mainstream politicians rise to power.

Rt.com reports: In Clinton’s telling, everything has vindicated her 1990s claim about a “vast right-wing conspiracy” working against her husband’s presidency, which has only been made worse since by social media and Republicans “exploiting fear and suspicion in a quest to permanently seize political power.”

The US finds itself in “an existential crisis in lots of ways because there’s no doubt in my mind that the plan on the other side is to win the presidency again, whether or not they win the popular vote and the Electoral College. And the same will be true to take back the Senate, to take back the House. And anybody who thinks that’s not the most important issue facing our democracy is really not paying attention,” Clinton told the Atlantic’s Jennifer Senior during last week’s festival sponsored by the publication.

“We are in the middle of a constitutional crisis. It’s like the frog dropped into the water. It’s boiling,” Clinton said.

People are still arguing about stuff that is important, but not as fundamental as whether or not our democracy will be broken and then taken over. And minority rule will be what we live under, the norm.

There is a direct line from what she “saw and tried to describe” in the 1990s to Trump and his “enablers and others” creating “this absolute cauldron of conspiracy and hatred and anger and looking for explanations and scapegoats,” resulting in the January 6 riot at the US Capitol, Clinton argued.

The vast majority of US media outlets have sided with the Democrats in describing the riot as an “insurrection” against “our democracy” and denounced lawmakers in Republican states seeking to pass voter integrity laws as racist efforts at “voter suppression.” 

Democrats currently control the White House and both chambers of Congress, albeit with razor-thin margins. According to Clinton, however, “commercial financial interests, ideological and partisan interests, even religious interests” have been working with the Republicans since the 1990s to “try to inject doubt and to cause a loss of confidence in our system, to try to tilt both the financial and the political balance toward the right.”

Addressing President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandates, Clinton said they proved threats work, because they cut through social media conspiracy chatter to make the choice “real.” 

There is a reality, and then there is craziness and conspiracy and nuttiness.

She urged the Democrats to get rid of the Senate filibuster, because Republicans were “a political party that does not respect the rule of law, does not even respect the process unless it works for them.”

The public and the press don’t “fully appreciate the determination, the relentless pursuit of power, the design of minority rule that we are currently watching happen,” Clinton argued. As proof, she pointed out she won the popular vote for president but lost the Electoral College because “we saw all this stuff online about the Trump campaign and WikiLeaks and the Russians and all of that.”

She did not mention that the “stuff online” has been traced back to her campaign, though.

While Clinton’s interview did not make that many waves, it was embraced by the extremely online Democrat ‘Resistance,’ who sang praises to her warnings about a “slow-motion coup” supposedly underway.

Others disagreed. 

“The idea that Hillary Clinton of all people stands against some dark political force in this country is obscene,” tweeted Jeff Deist, president of the libertarian Mises Institute. “She personifies it.”

  1. We know that when Obama made George Washington worst fears for American democracy a reality by Anointing the Pope as the Moral Authority for rule of Law exactly the source of “existential threat”.

  2. Luciferians are a danger to every living thing.
    But keep pushing the divide. Keep acting like you all aren’t in the same club(s)

    • You are correct. The real enemy is the nwo, the vatican, the royals and the swiss octogon. The Pentagon, CIA, MI6 and Mossad, KGB, etc all do their bidding.

  3. Every time that I read something Crooked has said, all that stands out is what she’s saying between the lines, “Help me, I don’t want to hang for treason!”

  4. “And there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth”. I remember that quote every time I hear that demon speaking.
