This is rich: Hillary Clinton will be honored with an award from Harvard for her “transformative impact.” I know this seems funny, but I kind of agree with it. She did, after all, transform a guaranteed 2016 democratic presidential win into the Trump White House. She transformed solid blue states into Republican Electoral College votes. She transformed life-long middle-class democrats into Trump supporters. I doubt this is the point of the award, but like it or not she does have amazing transformative abilities.
The Hill reports:
Former presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton will receive an award in May for her impact on society from the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University, according to a press release.
Clinton, a former secretary of State, will receive the Radcliffe Medal on May 25, an award that recognizes individuals who have had a “transformative impact” on society.
“Hillary Clinton’s life and career are an inspiration to people around the world,” Harvard professor Lizabeth Cohen.
She’s a career criminal and sexual predator enabler who couldn’t buy the presidency with a billion dollars. To whom is this inspirational? Losers? Scumbags? Idiots? I guess technically those are all people who exist around the world so perhaps Cohen’s statement is technically true.
“Whether in Arkansas, Washington, D.C., New York state or traveling around the globe as secretary of State, Secretary Clinton has provided a model of what it takes to transform society, often under scrutiny — tireless effort, toughness amid the political fray, and an enduring capacity to envision a better future,” continued Cohen.
This is what you say when you don’t have any concrete accomplishments to point to. The fact of the matter is that Hillary has never done anything positive in all her years in public service. She has a list of bad things like Whitewater, Vince Foster, Benghazi, Uranium One, and espionage, but those are definitely not things people win awards for. Then again, Hillary’s getting one so, maybe it is.
This award announce just keeps getting funnier:
In the statement, Radcliffe added that Clinton was a “skilled legislator,” and “an advocate of American leadership to create a world in which states live up to their responsibilities.”
Name one piece of legislation that Hillary authored as a Senator or any time she has taken responsibility for anything. The list of things she blames for losing the election is very long but doesn’t include herself and everything else she blames on a “vast right-wing conspiracy.”
“We commend Secretary Clinton for her accomplishments in the public sphere as a champion for human rights and the welfare of all,” finished Cohen.
Okay, this has to be satire from The Onion, right? Hillary is a champion of human rights and the welfare for all? She owned black slaves and called half the country “deplorables” who she considered her enemy.
Hillary getting an award for all the great stuff she’s done is like Obama getting a medal for his truth-telling. What’s next? Bill Clinton being awarded for his work against sexual assault?
