What do Obama and Trump have in common ?
They both clobbered Hillary when she ran a lame ass campaign.
Sometimes, (all the time) it seems the 2008 shellacking goes forgotten and unremarked upon. And yet it sowed the seeds for her 2016 debacle too. As noted in HRC, Hillary's displeasure with fellow Dems (Congressional Black Caucus excluded) for their sincerely offered support of Obama was to dump them all onto the infamous Clinton Enemy List. Guess what, 2016 rolls around, Hillary 'looks' like a sure bet regardless and those same shit listed Democrat office holders then offer tepid, wan and flaccid support that feeds right into the hearts and minds of disgruntled Democrats who had supported Obama in 2008/12 but who couldn't bring themselves to vote for Hillary (without some enthusiastic in party cheerleading, at least) and found themselves in the 'disgruntled democrat' category and either stayed home election day or realized a vote to 'drain the swamp' was the least wasteful course for themselves. And that Hillary couldn't fudge a win in a election contest she herself had rigged, damn, what kind of smoking gun do we need to universally and unanimously decry her for being a suck ass shitty candidate?
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
