Hillary Clinton, the backseat driver
The other day, Hillary Clinton sent this tweet from her backseat, or from the trunk, or from a trailer with one broken wheel being dragged behind the country;
President Trump, Sec. Mattis, and DOD should send the Navy, including the USNS Comfort, to Puerto Rico now. These are American citizens. https://t.co/J2FVg4II0n
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 24, 2017
It’s a shame that she wasn’t thinking of the Americans in the Benghazi consulate when she could have actually done something from the front seat. Anyway, the Washington Post helpfully points out;
The Navy already had two amphibious ships off the coast, the USS Kearsarge and the USS Oak Hill, so the few thousand Marines and sailors aboard could launch relief operations. But her call to action took off, with a petition on the website Change.org garnering more than 100,000 signatures in three days and critics expressing frustration with the hashtag #SendtheComfort.
Yeah, those petitions really have an influence on the body politic. Almost as much influence as a loser of the last Presidential election in her tweets.
Either way, the USNS Comfort will be steaming towards Puerto Rico soon. You know, even though Puerto Rico kicked the Navy out a few years ago.
Puerto Rico’s Governor Ricardo Rosselló has complemented US efforts thus far;
“I know it is a challenging situation,” Rossello acknowledged. “This is the most devastating event in the history of Puerto Rico… But we U.S. citizens who live in Puerto Rico, the proud U.S. citizens who live in Puerto Rico, want to work, want to deal with the emergency, but we are also looking forward for a special aid package from Congress.” He urged that the federal government “act quickly,”
Yeah, coming off of two other disaster relief operations in Texas and Florida, helping Mexico with it’s earthquake victims and now Puerto Rico – all within a month, I think we’re doing fine. Maybe not as quickly as the victims would like, but help is on it’s way.

DJT: “knock knock!”
HRC: “who is there?”
DJT: “Not you.”
Today’s culturally appropriated word is NACHO. As in “Hillary is nacho president “.
Amen GO AWAY! lying thieving bitch doesn’t give anything away, she steals all she can get her demonic little hands on imho,
Hildebeest is in way over her head. 1) USNS COMFORT was already underway when she sent out her tweet; 2) Puerto Ricans are NOT U.S. Citizens, they are U.S. Nationals, like Guamanians and American Samoans and U.S. Virgin Islanders, despite what the Hildebeest or the P.R. Guv or anyone else says. It is a technical but crucial distinction. The Hildebeest is a drunken angry vengeful moron, ’nuff said…
Actually, I believe they are in fact citizens since 1917. How are they not? They require no special papers to move about the country, vote the same as me if resident in my neighborhood, etc.
USVI are also citizens, since 1927
I double-checked on the P.R. citizenship thing; a U.S. law in 1941 made natural-born Puerto Ricans U.S citizens, so I stand corrected on that. They can’t vote in U.S. presidential elections if residing in P.R., but they can if they moved to a U.S. state, same thing with U.S.V.I.
People born in Guam and the USVI are also U.S. Citizens at birth. The only ones who are solely U.S. Nationals are those born in American Samoa and on Swains Island. Gotta keep up.
Lets see there is part of an ARG with its complement of helos and landing craft plus manpower in place.
As for the COMFORT, I liken its day to day status to an aircraft carrier without an Air Wing embarked. It doesn’t keep a complete complement of medical Staff and supplies onboard to deploy at a moments notice. Rather it pulls from shore based facilities and Reserves to fill out the medical complement and ad the supplies.
Long ago in a galaxy far away I seem to remember it had a 96 hour response time from after Mobilization complete. Add steaming time to that.
The problem with Puerto Rico and USVI unlike Texas/Florida that bore the brunt of Harvey/Irma is they can’t drive reinforcements in from adjacent States to support. A large number of the vehicles that would be used for reestablishing the electrical grid can’t be driven there nor are the transportable on a C-5 so these vehicles would have to move to a Port of Embarkation (POE) and then get on a boat.
That increases the timeline.
The mid-day news also had a brief piece about Pres. Trump’s planning to pay a visit to Puerto Rico very soon.
The whole island’s infrastructure is a disaster because they have no building codes and Irma and Harvey did not help set up new ones.
Sorry, I just cannot resist posting this video of the Old Bat. I am kind enough to post a spew warning, so put down that adult beverage before you start watching this.
Paul Joseph Watson is pretty awesome.
Great video. That guy is genius. He is the Tucker Carlson of U-tube. Every time I hear Hildy’s screechy voice, I wretch a little. I wonder if she has ever said anything that is provably true.
It’s those EYES! Scary stuff, they are.
Unfortunately for the citizens of PR, they took a double-hit squarely on the chin from Irma & Maria. Reaching the island and its devastated infrastructure will add to the level of difficulty.
We all know the relief efforts in PR are going to turn into a political football. It doesn’t matter that the Navy & Marines are already there.
Hell, it wouldn’t have mattered if the relief effort began before the last rain drop fell because the Left will say Trump didn’t act quick enough because the island is full of brown people.
Cankles McPantsuit probably already read the below link that The Comfort was preparing to get underway, so she sent out that tweet & than will try to take credit when she arrives.
https://news.usni.org/2017/09/26/fema-hospital-ship-usns-comfort-prepares-depart-puerto-rico
Yeah, and it takes weeks to prepare a hospital ship for deployment, and Navy did it in one week.
The request for a capable hospital ship was already in the plan.
And the Navy answered “YES” and will deploy early and mission capable.
Is she sending aide in any form too Puerto Rico thru the Clintoon Foundation like they did Haiti ?
Has she ever helped anyone ? besides herself ? didn’t think so
Never let a crisis go by, it could be a money making opportunity…scam
The Clintoon philosphy
PHUCK the Clintons, all 3 of them suck BIG TIME, must be that tainted gene pool
I thank God everyday she is not our commander in chief.
Who’s Hillary Clinton, and who gives a fuck? /sarc/
Who gives a fuck?
“Bill”
Not to Hillary. To anyone else of the female gender, yep. But not to Hilldog.
If only there was a Navy Base close by that had thousands of Sea Bee’s that could be right in the middle reconstruction.
Rose Roads has a nice ring to it.
President Trump’s victory in the 2016 presidential elections saved us from Hurricane Hildabeast. 🙄
Something I’ve found to be an ongoing annoyance is that when people quote a Hillary tweet, they’re likely not quoting her directly. She normally doesn’t write the things. They are carefully calculated partisan messages created by people who do them for her.
The same is true for her recently released book What Happened. If memory serves, there were at least six people involved in writing the book including two ghost writers and a research assistant. For her to claim authorship is roughly similar to Al Gore’s claim he invented the Internet.
All of which has to do with, if you think about it, a pathetic attempt to maintain and augment the Hillary Clinton “brand” which we’re supposed to believe is the same as the person, and which is a form of phoniness. Why it’s tolerated is a mystery.
Say what you will about Donald Trump. No matter how goofy some of his Twitter rants might be, at least they’re the real deal.
sadly. Someone needs to give him one of those numbers-only flip phones… if he would stop tweeting every random thought that entered his brain once in a while, he would get a lot more respect. I’m glad he got to BE President, I just wish he would learn how to ACT like a President.
Be careful what you wish.
Check historical behaviors of past presidents.
The playbook for being POTUS has been rewritten by DJT.
He will never gain any respect from the media, liberals or any libidiot on Planet Earth.
It is beyond their capability to think like real thinking human beings…
I am glad to see someone finally firing back at the morons on the left.
Both Bushes, McPainintheass and Romney refused to get in the mud and fight with the libidiots and just let the blows from them land and continue to do horrific damage to their presidencies and America as a whole.
The Bushes are the reason we got both demonrats slik willie & oblowme.
So he basically has nothing to lose at this point in time and we white nationalist supporters like the way he fights back.
Please be careful, Gitarcarver has the only definition of how a president should act. He is going to throw the straw man arguement at you. You can NEVER mention what anyone else in the past has done when it comes to Trump.
“Straw man” has more sooped-up powers than a year’s worth of Marvel team-up books.
Das Hildebeast’s latest ghost-written book is titled “What happened”, at this point what difference does it make? PRESIDENT TRUMP GOT ELECTED, that’s what happened, and I’m so glad we were spared from having that monster as POTUS! As for her continued attempts to stay in the limelight, I’m all for it and ditto with Pelousi, Schumahh and the others as they continue to drag the D-rat part down the sewer pipes!
Thank God this she-devil isn’t POTUS:
The real question here is, would IDC/Sarc hit it ???
I know he has pretty low standards, but i have often wondered about this one…
Ummm… he might, but then he’d have to get stinking drunk beforehand, and then scrub himself with lye afterwards.
If we gave a shit what Hillary Clinton thinks (or wants us to thinks she thinks for purposes of public image), she’d be stashing her [sex toys] in the drawers of the Resolute Desk (underneath which Monica Lewinsky performed similar functions for Bill). She ain’t, ergo, we don’t.
As for Puerto Rico, funny how when things go to shit they suddenly can’t get the Navy back fast enough.
yeah TOw, that and “Puerto Rican Independance!!!” Until shit is so F’d up they need Uncle Sugar to bail them out…
Then you hear nothing but “We’re American Citizens”…
I’m not sure I’d agree about Hillary, TOW. In almost all cases in past elections, both the defeated candidate and the outgoing president have mostly faded from public life. The loser in the election normally choosing, one might assume, to avoid further humiliation, and the ex-president as a matter of lending tacit support to his replacement for the good of the country. Whether he agrees with the new president or not.
That’s not what’s going on now. There are current indications that both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are engaged in efforts to have Donald Trump impeached. Whether such actions are in the form of passive support or otherwise is an open question. What’s clear, however, is that both Obama and Clinton are not going to fade into the sunset; both still want political power. Obama’s primary motivations is apparently wanting to maintain his political legacy. Hillary is likely more driven by the need for revenge.
One of the unique characteristics of American democracy is that it’s always been marked by a smooth transition of power. If reports are true, the kind of thing Obama and Clinton are doing now, along with help from a mostly compliant news media, amounts to the kind of palace intrigue you might find in a third-world banana republic.
Personally, I don’t have a particular problem if Hillary wants to continue to shoot her mouth off. To me, it’s just more evidence she’s a poor loser with bad character. It’s also a matter of intel. Better to know what she’s up to than otherwise when the stakes are as high as they are.
I agree with your assessment, Perry, because it’s when the bad guys go quiet that you have to be the most alert.
The more she sluts herself around for attention, and looks goofier and goofier doing it, the worse it is for her and those following her.
Cankles McAsswipe: What happened ???
@RealDonaldTrump: I happened…..
The rest is history…
That insufferable cunt. What a sad sack of shit.
One thing many people don’t know about USNS COMFORT and USNS MERCY is they are MSC vessels kept in a reduced operating status. That means they are minimally manned with minimal equipment in operation. To get COMFORT going they pull Docs, nurses and Corpsmen from the NCR, as well as CIVMARS from the available pool of Mariners. If the President stood on his head and held his breath it wouldn’t make the process of crewing the ship, getting the plant lit off and the ship underway any faster. Maybe the ship should have been activated sooner, but that still doesn’t mean the timeline to get U/W would have been any shorter. It just would have happened sooner, based on the required timeline. Some shit just doesn’t happen with the snap of your fingers.
KEARSARGE is a big deck gator freighter so they should have a pretty robust medical capability if required. Sounds like what they need is subsistence, fuel, water, SEABEES and maybe some JLOTS. Those are not COMFORT mission areas anyway.
NO GAMES, gimmicks, gags, bullshit, pranks or politics, you sound like you know what it takes to get those Vessels up and running!
These are very large ships that do not usually venture close to shore and would surely not enter any ports in PR due to nav aids maybe shifting / being out of position because of the storm. COMFORT will anchor out, so people will either be flown out or taken out by boat. The docs and nurses could go ashore, but with potentially no power in the hospitals what will they do?
Hell, if anything, I’d sent another big deck gator down there, one on each side to support medical / SEEBEA’s doing reconstruction. Then COMFORT can stay in Baltimore and all the FO / GO’s can still have their medical appointments at Walter Reed National Medical Center.
They are redirecting some Seabee missions now to get more on the ground. JLOTS are being talked about. A Seabee Battalions is on it’s way from PH ,and support equipment is being pulled out and sent.There is a Seabee Detachment on the Kearasarge along with ACB Det and UCT with EOD, they are clearing harbor. Point being we are already there clearing roads and Airfield’s along with bridging with Marines.
Yes that dumb but bitch being former Secretary Of State should know Disaster Recovery capabilities and understand that Kearasarge can provide same Medical capabilities as Comfort.
I’m not sure if this will come thru, but here’s a response from Kris Paronto to her above tweet:
https://onsizzle.com/i/kris-paronto-krisparonto-4h-wish-u-had-that-sense-of-18812302
I looked on his feed and it is there, so this is real. A real BURN!
“Wish u had that sense of urgency while u were watching the ISR feed during our 5th firefight in B-ghazi 😑or did u not consider us Americans?”
Huma calls her…
Hillary the “backseat diver”.
Go away skanky whore.
Bitch.
You’re a day late and a dollar short Hillary…
Your tweets, twits or whatever contribute nothing to the discussion. You probably had to google to find out that we do have Navy hospital assets afloat…
You and your husband can’t stand the military, so I’m surprised that you would even mention them.
Perhaps you can get the Clintoon Foundation and your cell phone company bud in the UK to send over some free satellite phones and other donations… just like you did for Haiti… NOT!
HRC is a real loser, many times over.
Whew, I feel better now!
