This Man Destroyed the Democratic Party

September 15, 2017 By Debbie Young

What do Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Barack Obama, James Comey, Jill Stein, Vladimir Putin, Julian Assange, Anthony Weiner, sexism, misogyny, the New York Times , lazy women, liberal activists and the “godforsaken Electoral College” have in common? Each is responsible, according to Hillary Clinton in What Happened, for her losing to Donald Trump. The only thing missing from Ms. Clinton’s blame list, adds Kimberley Strassel in the WSJ, is climate change.

Why did he Democratic Party saddled itself with Hillary, an ethically compromised and joyless candidate? Because it had nobody else, Ms. Strassel reminds us.

Mr. Obama aided Mrs. Clinton’s ambitions by decimating his party. By the time Barack Obama finished his eight years in office, his party held 65 fewer House seats, 14 fewer governorships and controlled 30 fewer state legislatures.

Hillary spent eight years planning her first presidential bid, and the next eight warning Democrats not to get in the way of her second. The Clinton Foundation was erected to serve as bank and Rolodex, and to enable the Clintons to retain their grip over the party. And that party was committed to a Clinton coronation, right up to Mr. Sanders’s cheeky assault.

And so the party nominated perhaps the only Democrat in the country who could rival Donald Trump in unpopularity—and beat him in untrustworthiness.
