What’s The Plan, Hillary?


The first time I read a Hillary supporter saying that they think their candidate will make a good president, I was taken aback. It never would have occurred to me that someone would ever pretend to think that. I literally could not believe someone actually took the time to type that nonsense on purpose with their fingers.

Eventually I wrote back something like, “No you don’t. Nobody thinks that. Not even her aides think that. Not even Hillary’s family thinks she’ll make a good president. You’re just saying that in a desperate attempt to whip up some small wisp of enthusiasm for your historically unpopular candidate. You’re not fooling anyone with that ridiculousness. All you care about is getting the chief from your tribe in the throne. You people have avoided thinking about what comes after November 8 at all cost.”

And that remains more or less my response to people in the very, very rare cases that I hear someone making that ludicrous assertion. Not only are Hillary’s supporters avoiding thinking about what comes after her victory in our fake presidential election, but I’m pretty sure her own campaign isn’t thinking about it much, either.

I mean, how could they be? It’s nothing but disaster on top of disaster as far as the eye can see. She already cashed in her “first woman” excitement five months ago, her approval ratings remain dismal, there’s zero excitement around her candidacy, the leaks are going to keep dropping, and people can’t un-see what they’ve seen.

So what’s the plan, Hillary? You just ran a whole entire campaign based on not being Donald Trump. What are you going to do when your big, scary boogeyman goes back to publishing trashy ghost-written books and hosting reality TV shows? Who will be your boogeyman then?

Well, I suppose that’s going to have to be Russia, huh? You’re already calling for military retaliations for the alleged Russian “cyber attacks” and a no-fly zone in Syria, which means shooting down Russian planes. But do you actually think that’s going to bring your approval rating up? Starting a war with a nuclear superpower?

Before the Iraq invasion, George W. Bush’s approval rating hit an astonishing 92 percent. Do you know what his average approval rating was for his second term following the invasion? Same as yours are right now before you’ve even done anything, Hillary. About 37-38 percent. That was low enough to enable Barack Obama to slaughter John McCain on the campaign slogan that McCain was running for Bush’s third term. Low enough for 41 percent of Americans to label him “the worst president ever” in a Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. And Iraq didn’t have the ability to spark off a nuclear holocaust.

And you are starting there.

What’s the plan, Hillary? You know what’s going to be your big problem from now on? Interest. Your apocalypse of a rigged primary election created a whole generation of politically interested people, people who had never considered themselves policy wonks or political junkies before, are now enthused about reading wads of emails. No incoming president in the history of the world has had this amount of scrutiny by regular, everyday people. People who make investigative journalists look like slackers. Normal citizens who are even making their own Freedom of Information requests because they’re interested, because they’re watching, because they’re building a picture of what Roosevelt famously called the”invisible government,” the undemocratic, unelected powerful few that pull the levers of war and Walmart/welfare wage slavery.

That’s your real problem now Hillary, not your abysmal approval rating (although questions have to be asked about how anyone could be elected president on the back of an approval rating so low), but hundreds of thousands of people right now who are watching your every move through suspicious eyes.

These are people who had, in a lot of cases, zoned out from the whole political process entirely. They were marked as independents on voter rolls and many hadn’t voted in years because there simply wasn’t a candidate that ever enthused them. Bernie Sanders changed all that, and he brought all these cynical minds with clear eyes to your inner processes.

And now they’re churning through your docs that journalists call “boring” and finding them anything but boring. To us, they’re fascinating, and not just for what they say, but what they don’t say. The business-as-usual attitude to “oversampling” polls is just as shocking as the fact that you’re able to do that. The casual way a press secretary says he’s going to instruct the press to say this or that makes our eyes widen just as much as the fact that he can do that. Here are people going to work each day and manipulating the entire political process in your favor like it ain’t no thing at all. Without your involvement! Just that is astounding. Are you getting me here, Hillary? Even what you think of as normal stuff is sooo not normal to us. For one small example, $12 million dollar bribes are not normal, Hillary. Sorry you were under that impression and didn’t know until we started looking.

This is going to be your big, ongoing problem Hillary, and indeed the problem of the establishment everywhere. We’re watching, and come November 9, we’ll still be watching. You think the leaks are going to miraculously become uninteresting and we’ll go back to arguing about reality TV? Sorry, lady, you’ve become the best reality TV show we could have asked for because the stakes are real and they directly impact us and we are invested in all your characters now. You make Celebrity Apprentice look like Big Brother. We know all the players now, and all your aides are becoming household names to us. I mean, who knew who John Podesta was a few months ago? He was invisible to us, even though his decisions regularly impact our lives. Didn’t know about his brother. His company is interesting too. Where does that all fit in, we wonder? Tune in next week to find out!

Oh and we will, Hillary. We will. We will tune in, work it out and build a clearer picture, day by day.

Invisible governance is becoming visible like one of those magic eye picture from the nineties, and just like you can never un-see the dolphins, we cannot un-see you now Hillary, and the invisible government structure you are a part of.

And there’s nothing you can do about it.

So tell me again, what’s the plan?
