One Upside To The Clinton Victory: Everyone In Opposition Should Have Been Preparing For It Since 2007
As bad as she is, Clinton has been the POTUS in waiting since Obama's win in 08. She sealed her victory on election day 2012, so the country and the world have been prepping for her administration for a good long time. Hillary will not surprise anyone: she will be an ugly, ignorant neoliberal murderer around the world, and a rock-ribbed conservative at home. Everyone with a stake in the government should be ready to deal with her. The center-left Democrats should be ready to do anything to keep her from the most reactionary of economic or social policy disasters. Labor should not be caught flatfooted when she continues the Democratic Party assault on union rights. The good people who want less war, less killing, and fewer refugees should have their best opposition ready. Not to stop Hillary, but at least to slow her down--in all likelihood that will be the best anyone can do unfortunately. But anyone unprepared to oppose Hillary is frighteningly useless and should find the deepest hole anywhere and jump right the fuck in.
