[Peace-discuss] Good Riddance Killary! Hillary R Clinton. We Came, We Saw, He Died"

[Amanda Bass]

I supported Jill Stein who, as we saw last night, pulled only .9% of the
popular vote. It's thus a red herring to suggest that her supporters were
"spoilers." The democratic party establishment (and those who buy into it)
has no one to blame but themselves for Trump's ascendance to power: it
sabatoged and conspired against the campaign of a populist candidate
(Bernie Sanders) in order to put forward someone (Hillary Clinton) despised
by many--including by many white blue collar workers who spoke loudly and
clearly last night.

HRC 'demonized’ herself by being an enthusiastic participant in murder on

For the first time in 40 years we have a president(-elect) who’s not a
neoconservative (more war) or a neoliberal (more inequality). Clinton is
both.

There are of course serious problems with a Trump presidency (climate
change at the top of the list) and the War Party won’t go away (we still
have two months of Obama) - but the news is surely good for the anti-war
movement - and the world at large.

a war monger/fascist style for a running mate.
