Really liked the segment where they likened Hilary Clinton to Herbert Hoover

I was watching the Hilary Clinton segment on Counter Points and it really seems to be the case that like Hoover who wouldn't disappear from the public eye, Clinton is doing the same and always offering her opinion like anyone cares. She acts like she is the spokesperson for the democratic party but she is such a divisive character that like Trump she needs to ride off into the sunset.

She lost the 2016 election and has been extremely bitter ever since with very little self reflection on why she lost. Ignoring her pushing the stolen election narrative early she has just been a toxic character for the left always causing leftists to fight among themselves when talking about why she lost. Not trying to get into that here so no Clinton shills or people that are gonna cry about Bernie. I just think she needs to stop going on news shows to give her opinion because it always seems to be a horrible take that gets attached to democrats. If you think Trump is toxic for the right and he needs to go then you can't deny that Clinton also needs to go. These people are both sore losers that can never self reflect and own up to their failures.

TIL that Jimmy Carter has been alive for 39 years since he left office, which is the longest timespan of any POTUS ever. Second place is held by Herbert Hoover, who lived for 31 years after his presidency.

You many not like it but Herbert Hoover was the most historically progressive President in the US.

Just look at his accolades:

  • Successfully opposed Australian mine worker movements for worker's compensation and minimum wage (radicalizing and historically progressive)

  • Saved the Russian revolution with famine relief

  • Successfully exacerbated the Great Depression (historically progressive)

  • Started the Hoover institution (only think tank dedicated to international communism)


TIL in 1927, during the worst flood in the history of the Mississippi River Valley, Herbert Hoover and the Red Cross set up "concentration camps" comprised of African Americans forced to work at gunpoint on the levee, and created a media campaign to cover it up.
