I knew it wasn't safe to go looking at political stuff

From Politico: A Clinton administration will be full of Republicans.

From messaging help delivered by Clinton's communications team to direct and regular access to senior staffers and in-person meetings to discuss policy and strategy, Republicans who have abandoned Trump say the Democrat has given every indication that the GOP view will be reflected in her administration.

After she is sworn in, these Republicans say, they expect positions in a Clinton administration that go beyond the one or two seats that are typically reserved for opposition party experts in any White House...

...By embracing Clinton, these Republicans say they've also gained an easy entry point to communicate with the campaign's senior brass on both policy and political tactics. Come 2017, they hope their campaign access translates to a new Clinton administration.

From WaPo: Hillary's first inclination is always war, war, war.

For years, Clinton has blamed Bush for misleading her into voting for the resolution. But an examination by The Washington Post found that her decision was based as much on advice from her husband's advisers as from Bush administration officials. There were also significant gaps in her fact-gathering, most notably her apparent failure to read a classified analysis that other senators cited in voting against the resolution.

Meanwhile, from NYT, the Clinton campaign can't figure out why Millenials and former Bernie supporters are drifting to third parties, and they hilariously think the answer is MOOOOAAAAR SUPERPACS (the rejection of which was the cornerstone of Bernie's campaign):

...leading Democrats have been alarmed by the drift of young voters toward the third-party candidates.

The principal "super PAC" supporting Mrs. Clinton's candidacy, Priorities USA Action, has concluded from its polling and other research that the reluctance to embrace the Democratic nominee among those who intensely dislike Mr. Trump is not going away and must be confronted.

"We'll be launching a multimillion-dollar digital campaign that talks about what's at stake and how a vote for a third-party candidate is a vote for Donald Trump, who is against everything these voters stand for," said Justin Barasky, a strategist for Priorities USA.

goddamn you! i am trying to avoid this shit. anything new will just make me dislike her more and there's pretty much no chance anything will be revealed that will suddenly make me want to vote for her. so there's no point in following anything that is about trump or clinton. just accept that we're fucked no matter what.

delete all those articles from your rss feed without reading them first. you'll feel better. and for god's sake, stay the fuck off twitter!

But aren't you supposed to like her because she's a woman?

I don't think that the Republicans are going to have that much influence in Hillary's administration- they'll have access yes, but in the end she'll make the final decisions.
And yes, the fact that so many Millenials are drifting towards Jill "How do you know vaccines don't cause Autism?" Stein and Gary "Aleppo? What's Aleppo?" Stein is alarming.

It sounds like we might have a few undecided readers, what with the mutual tearing down of Trump and Billary.

To turn the tide, let us consider (and Google), "Clinton is obsolete."

Stein never said that.
