As our Townhall colleague Larry O'Connor said on his "Larry" podcast on Tuesday, he wants to erect a statute of Donald Trump because he saved us from Hillary Rodham Clinton. While Clinton is not, and will never be, President of the United States, she still bears the titles of Senator and Secretary of State, which seems to supersede "resounding loser" for those on the Left who still consider her the Second Coming. 

Clinton's latest struggle for relevance is as a Broadway producer. She appeared on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" to talk about her new play, "Suffs," and Fallon steered the conversation in the direction of the 2024 election. Clinton channeled crazy cat lady vibes in her commentary.

Get over yourself, those are the two choices.

...

I don't understand why this is even a hard choice, really, I don't understand. But, we have to go through the election, and hopefully people will realize what's at stake.

Shorter: You are too stupid to understand how evil Donald Trump is. Just do what I say, and vote for Joe Biden. Could Clinton be any more insulting? Why, yes, she can. 

Because it's an existential question. What kind of country are we going to have, what kind of democracy we're going to have. People who blow that off are not paying attention, because it's not like Trump, his enablers, his empowerers, his allies are not telling us what they want to do. I mean, they're pretty clear about what kind of country they want.

And Democrats are not? They want to use the judicial system to target people of faith and their political enemies, they want to mutilate children, they want to stoke racial and economic division, and they want to erase women from existence. Between these choices and whatever "Orange Man Bad" has planned, I think the American people are pretty clear about what's at stake, and why they did not vote for Clinton in 2016. 

As my colleague Brandon Morse wrote,

But Clinton made herself an easy target. She was very meme-able, and no, not because she's a woman. It's because she was a trainwreck being sold to us as a high-performance machine. The scrambling that was constantly being done to make her seem more popular and capable than she actually was bordered on the comical. 

All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't help Clinton look good. She had celebrities sing songs for her, talking heads promise a brighter future with her in command, and every trick in the book was deployed but in the end, Clinton was just too much of a joke. 

Sports commentator Stephen A. Smith also considers Hillary Clinton a punch line. Smith did not support her in 2016, and when asked by CNN's Abby Phillips about her dismissive comments toward voters, Smith expressed his displeasure.

I don't think it was a very wise statement on her part. How did that work out for her in 2016? I think that's something that we have to recognize. Yes, she won the popular vote, but at the end of the day she wasn't the President of the United States, it was him. 

BOOM. At the end of the day, Donald Trump was the 45th President of the United States and Hillary Clinton was not. Talk about making the world safe for democracy—O'Connor's idea of a Donald Trump statue just might have legs.

Smith continued,

You can look at her not campaigning in Wisconsin in the last days, not campaigning in Pennsylvania in the last days, you can look at some of the stuff that they were saying about her that sort of distracted things from where it should have been in terms of Comey and his report from the FBI. You can bring up a bunch of things, but at the end of the day, the last thing you need to do, is to do anything that can agitate a potential voter in this particular election. 

It seems Hillary Clinton is once again failing to read the room and failing to understand voter sentiment—or she doesn't care to. Bottom line, the only person Hillary Rodham Clinton has to blame for losing the election in 2016 is herself. But it's easier to whine, talk about a vast, right-wing conspiracy, Russian collusion, and foment talk about evil plots and misinformation from Republicans, rather than pay attention to what voters are concerned about--and why a President Joe Biden is ignoring them. To be wholly dismissive and tell voters to get over themselves does nothing to draw them in or want to go out and vote for your candidate. If anything, it drives them in the opposite direction. Apparently, Clinton has learned nothing.
