Hillary Clinton: How Much Dumber Will This Get?

She was better than good enough to be president but the sexist people in our nation said she wasn't.

"Don’t let the swagger fool you. Mr. Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth (of group chat fame) are apparently more focused on performative fights over wokeness than preparing for real fights with America’s adversaries. Does anyone really think deleting tributes to the Tuskegee Airmen makes us more safe? The Trump Pentagon purged images of the plane that dropped the atomic bomb that ended World War II because its name is the Enola Gay. Dumb." https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/28/opinion/trump-hegseth-signal-chat.html?unlocked_article_code=1.8E4.XFM2.0dQ3nKpp9nqb&smid=url-share

Everything we've seen to date is the stuff they've had four years to plan and it's still grossly incompetent.

Now that they have recruited the survivors of their bleach-instead-of-masks thinking, the wave they're riding seems wholly resistant to any move that might be deemed even vaguely intelligent, or even crudely thought out - not that there is much risk of that, when RFK Jr is one of your avatars.

There can be intelligent people who are also 'pathetic'. He's just not one of them.

Which is particularly idiotic given the fact that there is no such thing as ‘woke’ and ‘DEI’ as misrepresented and lied about by conservatives.

There is a ton of better adjectives than that to describe this.
