Trump is seen speaking at the 50th World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland Wednesday

Piers Morgan, Daily Mail: President Trump’s got Davos cheering the US economy, Hillary beating up a socialist heading the Dem polls, and an Impeachment farce heading towards another big win for him. No wonder he’s laughing his way back to the White House

‘Nobody likes him,’ rages Hillary Clinton in a new documentary film. ‘Nobody wants to work with him. He gets nothing done.’

She expanded on her vicious personal attack in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter: ‘It’s not only him, it’s the culture around him. It’s his leadership team. It’s his prominent supporters….and their relentless attacks on lots of his competitors, particularly the women.’

She concluded: ‘I think people need to pay attention because we want, hopefully, to elect a president who’s going to try to bring us together and not either turn a blind eye, or actually reward the kind of insulting, attacking, degrading behavior that we’ve seen… it’s all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it.’

Wow.

Pretty good week so far.

And she says "He gets nothing done."
Amazing. A damning indictment of some American voters. For some there is nothing a candidate could do to cause a voter to switch or abstain come election time.
I'm voting for Stalin 'cuz I love his moustache.

Hillary should retire to a nunnery, or, something else that would keep her mouth shut and out of the public eye.
