Participating in Master-Class lesson on the Power of Resilience, former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton read a portion of the victory speech she had planned to deliver on Election Night in 2016.
If this was her idea of what the Power of Resilience looks like: chalk-up another loss in her presidential run tally.
I am not going to “fact-check” Hillary’s speech because quite frankly, the facts that I care about weren’t in it.
Let’s go back five years and remind Hillary why she lost the 2016 election and what is missing from her memory and from her “victory” speech.
America Didn’t Trust You
The 2016 election demonstrated one major fact that Hillary didn’t address: America’s increased lack of trust in her ability to lead our nation. The lack of trust had nothing to do with her being a woman and everything to do with the aura of dishonesty surrounding her, especially her time in the State Department.
It was not just that truthfulness. Humility and remorse was missing from her testimony during the congressional hearings investigating the terrorist attack on the consulate in Benghazi. It was her display of malice and superiority which turned the stomachs of American citizens.
In the aftermath of that barbaric attack, while family members and America were shaken with unspeakable pain, America was fed a boatload of lies and disinformation—the standard mode of operation for the establishment caste always out to protect their position of power.
Additional deceitfulness is obvious in the FBI’s summary of their interview with Hillary regarding her unauthorized use of a private email server while Secretary of State: “she could not recall”, “did not recall”, “did not remember”, or “had no recollection” 41 times.
As head of the State Department, which is primarily responsible for our nation’s foreign policy, I find that reprehensible incompetence, if true, and an act of cowardice self-protection if not. Especially given that she advocated for and eventually helped oversee U.S. military intervention in Libya that led to the killing of Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. While Hillary celebrated her successful regime change, Libya was being terrorized and destroyed by the Islamic State as they filled the political vacuum and began ethnic cleansing— torture, execution and enslaving black Libyan citizens en masse.
Not exactly the flourishing democracy Hillary had promised.
Clinton had been made aware of this through private emails from her unofficial advisor Sidney Blumenthal.
So, Hillary, on behalf of Ambassador Chris Stevens, Glen Doherty, Tyrone Woods, Sean Smith and tens of thousands of Libyans, I must ask one question about your speech: what difference, at this point, does it make?
My advice to Hillary and to all establishment elites:
You will never be seen as the leader you so desperately desire until you ditch the superiority complex into the nearest dumpster big enough to contain it.
Americans crave authenticity, truth, courage and appreciation for America's great principles.
Americans are so done with fake news, emotional manipulation, lies and people of weak character representing our beloved country.
Humility, courage in confessing wrongs, a show of redemptive actions and genuine respect for America's charters of liberty, are the qualities Americans seek in their elected servants. So, until you exhibit these qualities, you stand zero chance in gaining the trust of your fellow American citizens.
If this was indeed the speech she planned to deliver, why did she have to guide her finger across the pages to read it word by word as if reading The Night Before Christmas to a classroom of preschoolers?
If this was indeed the speech, where was the mention of Donald Trump and the immediate impending danger of Russian collusion that she and the media convulsed over prior to election night? I mean, my goodness, if she had won, surely, she would have acknowledged saving us from that impending doom, with the fake dossier, right?
Americans know the truth. They didn't believe Hillary Clinton when ran in 2016, they didn't believe her when she attacked the Convention of States movement, and they don't believe her now.

In fact, ever since Clinton tried to fear-monger about Article V, more Americans than ever have joined the movement. Today, over five million Americans has voiced support for a Convention of States, and over two million have signed the Convention of States Petition.
