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.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I came here just to upvote this comment. Thank you.
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.
She couldn't be bothered to go to -- or even send staffers to -- Michigan. https://www.politico.com/story/2016/12/michigan-hillary-clinton-trump-232547 Then repeat basically the same laziness with Pennsylvania and Wisoconson https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/11/trumps-road-to-victory/507203/ because she assumed the Rust Belt would just vote for her.
She demonstrably phoned it in.
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
Fuck's sake, who gave her a mic?!
I would thank her to fuck off into the sunset.
Shame she didn't feel the same way when she was running. Maybe she would have tried. Maybe she wouldn't have enabled Trump.
STFU and please stay in your cave until after the election
IDGAF what hillary clinton has to say.
I'll never take this prison labor enthusiast seriously.
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
As an expert on oppression and autocracy, she would know

Sit the fuck down Hillary! Nobody has ever wanted to hear from you.
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.
Well that was ordered wrong i assume
Autocratic freedom or democratic oppression?
