    Someone must have thrown a bucket of water at her.

    Oh what a world!

    I only managed to watch about 15 seconds of the video before my blood pressure reached the point I had to shut it off.

    This is what happens when you surround yourself with nothing but acolytes and yes-persons.  You completely lose touch with reality.

    At least she didn’t fall over again.

    You did notice she was sitting down. If she fell over from a sitting position, she would probably land in a rectangular box.

    Here’s hoping she never shuts up. But they should get one of those emergency stair walkers for her trips around the world.

    Peter,

    Hillary isn’t interested in the proper handling of classified documents and feels that this shouldn’t cast any doubt on her abilities as Secretary of State or the Presidency. She also feels that stairs are irrelevant. She would surely enforce an EPA ban on stairs if she could only have another chance at supreme power.

    More white wine, immediately.

    Regards,

    Jim

    She should take a lesson from the guy who won the election.  Use the escalator.

    I like how she kicks off her sandals after two near falls as if the sandals were the culprit of the wobbly HRC and not the white wine.

    I think a fair assessment of the incident could believe other factors might contribute to the problem. The stairs are definitely broken and uneven. If the sandals had slick soles, they could very well be the problem. I have two pairs of shoes like that. In my case, I haven’t replaced them because of how seldom I need to wear that sort of shoe. In her case? Who knows? Maybe she had just bought the sandals and they aren’t broken in. Note that she did not slip after kicking off the shoes.

    Second part: note how she is holding her head. She may still be having vision problems that are interfering with her walking down the uneven steps. She is wearing sunglasses when it does not appear all that bright at the moment. You will note that both the gents who are holding her up also have sunglasses, but neither is wearing them. (One has them on his hat, the other with one temple tucked into his shirt.) She has been seen before in public wearing sunglasses at inappropriate times, and there has been speculation that they may be being used to hide the prismatic lenses that she had prescribed for awhile for her concussion. She may still be suffering after-effects.

    I find these factors more likely than a mere surfeit of wine.

    I wear trifocals, and have to carefully concentrate when going down stairs. But Hillary can still stuff it.

    Edison,

    Hillary feels that anything bad that happens to her must be someone else’s fault. She feels that the rest of humanity exist only to be blamed for her problems. Sandals are on the list. She will pass a sandals regulatory act in her first year in office.

    She also will start a US Strategic White Wine Supply Initiative. You can never plan ahead too far.

    As I have state ad infinitum, the left has given up on persuading people. Her speech is just another preening unfunny Jimmy Kimmel speech. The left cannot win without persuasion.

    Sure they can. All they need to do is import enough people from other countries.

    I see zero evidence that non-white people will agree with the gender nonsense and the hatred of wealth that defines the white left.

    My husband comes from Scotland originally, and he is a conservative; he is possibly the only person in Scotland who voted for Maggie Thatcher. Which is to say, he has always been weird :) God Bless Scottish people, I love them, but way too many of them are hard left. If there was a Scottish incursion into America, I would be concerned. I am in favor of hard limits on immigration from everywhere, at least for a while. Until we have assimilated the astounding number of immigrants we have had over the past 20 or 30 years. If you can point to any country anywhere where the people value freedom as much as we do in America, maybe I would reconsider.

    Does liberalism require “open borders”? Is nationalism compatible with individual rights? Is democratic majoritarianism a form of colonialism, with predictably bad outcomes for minority populations? And, can mass immigration be reconciled with self-determination? Dr. Joe Salerno recently addressed these questions in a comprehensive article entitled “Mises on Nationalism, the Right of Self-Determination, and the Problem of Immigration” (https://mises.org/MisesNationalism). It’s a very important piece, and one that every liberty-minded person should read. In this studio interview, Jeff and Joe discuss Mises’s writings on these perennially-timely topic

    She is, quite literally, either as dumb as a box of rocks or so blindingly arrogant as to be a danger to herself. 2008 she won the popular vote in the Dem primaries but lost the delegate count to Obama. Now a normal person … that experience would be seared into your brain forever. You would never, ever in a million years make that mistake again. Ever. Not her. Nope. She did exactly the same thing.

    This bears repeating.  Every time someone brings up the popular vote in 2016.

    I kind of forgot about it.  It is exactly the same thing.  Not only can’t she deliver, she can’t shut up about failing to deliver.

    This statement proves 2 things to me.

    1. Hillary is stupid. 2 years after the “Basket of deplorables” statement she still cant attack her opponent without attacking the other party’s base. She still hasnt learned a simple lesson, you can not convince people of anything after you insult them.
    2. She admits the democrat party is the party of the rich. “She won the areas that account for 2/3 of America’s GDP” the rich voted for Hillary. (Paraphrasing the quote, as I dont want to re-listen to get it right)

    Some chilling attitudes. She represents more GDP areas. Astonishing.

    And those high GDP areas don’t have large numbers of people ( voters) who are poor and dependent?

    And let’s look at federal government spending in the areas Clinton, won shall we?

    And the welfare rolls, the food stamp rolls, and the illegal immigrant numbers, too, while we’re at it.

    And still Governor Moonbeam calls California the “engine” of the American economy. Clinton beat Trump here by almost a 2 to 1 margin.

    And those at the DNC who fix the ballots’ end tallies are wondering what went wrong that HRC didn’t get 100% of Calif’s voters.

    I can see why Democrats would be surprised that it wasn’t a bigger margin. I was recently told by a woman that she doesn’t want to let anyone at her workplace know that she votes Republican. She is a well-educated, talented woman who may now suspect that it was a bad idea to leave Wisconsin for California.
