Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton joins Morning Joe to discuss the stakes of the 2024 presidential election, her impressions of the Jan. 6 insurrection and why she says the race is a contest between freedom and oppression and autocracy and democracy.

    I know you’re trying to help Hillary but for everyone’s sake I think maybe just laying low until November is the play here.

    Oppression and autocracy that she partially enabled by thinking she could phone in her victory. She should just go away. Nobody wants to hear from her anymore.

      I don’t think she phoned it in. She ran a campaign that was ineffective against DT because she assumed things like competence and experience mattered.

      Ah, the misogynistic punching bag that the left and right share. How noble it must feel to attempt to shout her down.

        “It was her turn” fucking ruined the Democrats.

        If she was a man and had the same attitude, we’d all be shitting on him just the same.

        It was her entitlement, not the fact that she’s a woman.

        Honestly, her gender is one of the few things I actually respect about her.

        She’s an entrenched neo-lib who thought herself so entitled to the presidency that she got her conference to shut down campaigns that actually had a chance while simultaneously neglecting to consider that the Midwest and rust belt exist and have legitimate grievances with the Democratic party.

        I mean, kinda easily proven wrong by how much people love and rally around Harris. It was Clinton’s condescending attitude and dearth of actual effort that soured people on her. It felt like she didn’t care about the country at all, and just wanted to sit in the big seat.

        Contrast to Harris, who expresses, you know, actual care and understanding for what people are going through, and suggests concrete plans even for the little things.

    Hillary please just shut up and keep doing your $60,000 speeches on Wall Street. No one will ever like you and you are poison for the Democratic Party

    Shame she didn’t feel the same way when she was running. Maybe she would have tried. Maybe she wouldn’t have enabled Trump.

    Alright Hill-dawg… if you want to say something helpful please just get on stage and start talking about Benghazi and emails n’ shit. The trumpanzees will lose their shit, and you can be a nice little lightning rod to redirect right wing hatred away from Harris.

    Stop weighing in on current issues. No one wants to hear it.

      Man. If 8 year old me had known that “political lightning rod” was a job my trajectory would have been VERY different

    There’s that Al Franklen quote about Ted Cruz.

    I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.

    Reading this comment section made me realise I feel the same way about Hillary Clinton.

    That may be true but many people aren’t turning up on election day to save democracy. They are turning up to vote to improve their material needs.
