Clinton says she is concerned about those who ‘would try to do away with elections, and do away with opposition, and do away with a free press.’
"Authoritarians, Hillary Clinton explained Wednesday, don’t “usually telegraph” what they’re going to do, but when they do, you should “take [them] at [their] word.”
She then proceeded to telegraph exactly what Democrats are doing, and plan to continue doing, to bring about — as she put it — “the end of our country as we know it.”
"Of course, in Wednesday’s appearance on “The View,” she accused Donald Trump — whom Clinton has clearly not forgiven for foiling her presidential aspirations — of being responsible for all those things. Trump, Clinton said, “means to throw people in jail who disagree with him, shut down legitimate press outlets, do what he can to literally undermine the rule of law and our country’s values.”
"Let’s unpack that accusation."
Throwing dissidents in jail: Trump, after winning the presidency, declined to have his Justice Department prosecute Mrs. Clinton, despite the massive evidence of her illegal activity and the Obama Justice Department’s decision to come down on her classified information scandal with all the righteous indignation of a butterfly.
On the other hand, as “The View’s” Joy Behar admitted, Trump has been “criminally charged with 91 counts,” roughly half of which have been brought by his doddering 2024 opponent’s Justice Department, with the other half brought by state and local prosecutors like New York Attorney General Letitia James, who literally campaigned on bringing Trump down. . . .
Shutting down the press: During Trump’s entire presidency, practically the entire corporate press worked rabidly to malign him. No less prominent outlets than The New York Times and The Washington Post were lauded with Pulitzers for their fallacious “reporting” about Trump’s supposed collusion with Russia. Trump routinely gave the media access with twice as many personal press conferences per year on average as his hapless successor. Far being “shut down,” corporate outlets that hated Trump prolifically set a false narrative about him and were rewarded with reach by their allies in Big Tech. . . .
Undermining the rule of law: Contrary to Democrats’ unhinged predictions, Donald Trump did not chain himself to the Resolute desk and refuse to leave the Oval Office, nor has he canceled any elections. He did not lead an armed uprising against the government on Jan. 6, 2021, but instead took to Twitter to plead with his supporters to keep their demonstrations peaceful before promptly having his account locked by leftist censors. . . .
"Following a New York Times/Sienna poll that indicated Trump would beat Biden handily were the election held now, Clinton and her fellow panelists were clearly starting to panic during Wednesday’s show." . . .
