Day 1 was a barn burner. I personally think Day 2 was fine, but not to the same level. We’ll see where day 3 takes us!

Please let this be the end of the Clinton dynasty. Just F OFF already!
OK, real talk… What dynasty?
No seriously, what fucking dynasty?
Bill Clinton was president. Hillary Clinton - who is not his descendant and has her own successes from before and after his presidency - has every right to her own career. Their daughter has shown no interest in becoming a politician.
So… what dynasty? Where are the multiple generations of Clinton politicians dominating some aspect of American life? Is there also an Obama dynasty, consisting solely of Barack and Michelle Obama? Their kids don’t seem interested in politics right now, either.
You’re not angry because Hillary Clinton has her own career and ambitions, are you? Because telling the “Clinton dynasty” to “F OFF” sure seems like you’re just angry at a “dynasty” of a single married couple.
Hillary should forever be clowned on. She literally gave the world a Trump presidency. Her ego got us into this mess.
By winning the party’s nomination and running for president? The fact that she failed to beat Trump doesn’t mean she didn’t try.
Or wait… Are you one of those conspiracy theorists who thinks the DNC stole the nomination from Bernie? Bernie supporters stole the nomination from Bernie - and I say that as someone who freaking loves Bernie Sanders and voted for him in the primaries. With all the loud, public demonstrations they did in 2016, you know what they didn’t do? They didn’t 1) fucking register as Democrats, and 2) fucking vote in the primaries. Clinton won the primaries in a landslide.
I have a good friend who worked for the Democratic party in Oregon. He strongly supported Bernie, too. But somehow, all his pleas to his fellow Bernie-or-bust types to actually register as Democrats for Oregon’s closed primaries fell on deaf ears. They preferred to march in the streets instead of march to the ballot dropbox and make a fucking difference.
