The Hill: ‘Shattered Dreams in Clintonworld’ as Longtime Aides Left Jobless

Quote
Amie Parnes writes in The Hill about the future of the “legions of politicos” who had “hitched on to the Clinton train” for decades. Donald Trump’s defeat of Hillary Clinton “shattered the dreams of thousands of longtime Clinton aides and supporters who hoped to follow her to the White House.”

From The Hill:

This week, the Clintonworld train went off the rails — this time, seemingly for good.

In interviews with more than a dozen former Clinton aides, they expressed a grief and pain akin to losing a member of the family.

…

“For many people Clintonworld is life,” said one former aide.

“They don’t know anything else. There was a lot of measuring the drapes and not just now, it’s been that way for a long time,” another former aide said.

Those in her orbit didn’t just expect Clinton to win. They expected her to win big with the campaign telegraphing that states like Arizona were in play.

“And people thought she was going to win with 300 electoral votes. Everyone was thinking about their own lives in another Clinton administration. It seemed like it was finally happening.”

Weeks and months before the election, many aides, former staffers, surrogates and anyone who had ever worked for either Clinton had been lining up for jobs in what they thought would be a return of the Clintons to the White House.

All those hopes and dreams down the sh!tter.
All those final checks bouncing as Hillary absconds with the remaining petty cash.
All the thousands of aides and working now looking for a REAL job where you have to be more than a yes man...you have to actually produce.
All the DUmmies who thought their loyal postings would be rewarded someday.
All gone. Kaput. Finito.

These sorts of tear-jerking stories make me want to puke.

I recall once--this was many months after the fact, after I returned from the socialist paradises--reading an article from November or December 1994 in Time or Newsweek, describing how the Republican takeover of Congress had led to massive unemployment among former Democrat staffers in the Senate and the House.

Well, a big****ingwhoop-de-do.

I don't recall any stories bleeding tears over other sorts of employees in other sorts of businesses losing their jobs; it's as if Democrat staffers had a "right" to a lifetime sinecure or something.

I think it'd be good for people on governmental payrolls to have to look for another job once in a while.....just as all people on other payrolls have to.

It'd probably be good for the WillyT primitive and Skippy, the now-banned NYC_SKP primitive, to work in the private sector for a while.

  • Yes, really. Liberals DO disgust me.

A higher minimum wage is good as long as it's coming out of someone elses pocket.
Liberals disgust me. (Now I don't have to remember to put it on each post).

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

No kidding. My boss voted to raise the minimum wage. He makes a salary and often leaves early.

Hello! This happens every time there's a Presidential election. So what makes this the least bit remarkable? Besides the fact that, unlike in 2008 and 2012, it's Ds, not Rs who are disappointed and unemployed.

And paid her female staffers less than males.  Nice example.

That photo of all the sourpussed White House staffers made me think of that DU thread from a few months back about how DUmmie women hate it when men tell them to smile.  It would be awesome to go up to each one of those women staffers and exhort them to smile--it would be just the thing to push them over the edge.  Hey sweetheart, hows about a smile?
