We all died in 2016, and our punishment for our bad decisions is to relive the presidential election every single day, with the exact same cast of characters.
The streaming service Hulu released the first trailer Friday for its four-part Hillary Clinton docuseries titled, Hillary. (Although “docuseries” may not be the best word for it. “Hagiography” seems more appropriate.)
Director Nanette Burstein reportedly shot more than 35 hours of original interview footage with Clinton and used a total 1,700 hours of footage to create what CNN describes as an “intimate portrait of the one-time Democratic presidential candidate.”
'One-time?' Have we already forgotten about 2008?

It should be called "Hillar-iously Out of Touch"
Who in their right mind would have a desire to watch this propaganda?!
Is this "docuseries" a precursor to Hillary's run in 2020? I hope so, as that would be an absolute gift to President Trump.

My favorite Hillary moment was the hang dog look and tears in the crowd at the Javets Center when they learned she was toast. Schadenfreud on steroids.

I am quite sure NBC owns HULU. Enough said? Therefore this is a planned event, in advance of her move on the 2nd ballot at the convention. It is all falling into place. (As they keep her from falling all over the place on the campaign trail until the last possible moment).

If you had any art skills at all and sat down to draw a sketch of what you think a sycophantic filmmaker obsessed with Hillary might look like, you would by accident or design probably come up with Nanette Burstein.
She ticks all the boxes - no makeup, unkempt hair, denim shirt, pinched face that is only faintly feminine, smug expression.
As time progresses it's Hillary herself - along with a dwindling core of deluded supporters - who reveal that Hillary's main interest in the presidency was to have her ego pumped up every day. She would finally be out of the shadow of her 'husband.' In all her unwelcome pronouncements there has been little or no mention of policy, of actions she would or would not have taken, etc. It's merely a long, boring foot-stomping exercise.
This sort of narcissism seems endemic to Democrats and especially Democrat females - Pelosi, AOC/the squad, even burnt-out bulbs like Feinstein and bulbs that never lit like Hirono. The focus is eternally on the self. Disagreements about policy instantly become slanging matches.

May her hagiography tank, like all the other media junk promoted by Her Thighness, especially “Gutsy Women.” Will this feature her harrowing experience with sniper fire in Bosnia? Will she speak with a Southern sharecropper accent with a black interviewer? Will she asked how hard she threw that ashtray at Bill during the Monica thing? Will she reveal what happened to all that earthquake money for Haiti? I wouldn't watch one second of that garbage, even if I’m in an airport terminal on a layover!

The only thing I want to know about Hillary Clinton is how many years is she going to get in prison.

These hagiographies are not without some real value.
The War Room has that powerful scene of George Stephanopolus on the eve of the election threatening journalists on the phone that if they print the breaking stories about Clinton's womanizing, they'll get banned from the Whitehouse and their careers will end. A real #MeToo guy that George.
The recent PBS retro has some former insider explaining, "we didn't want impeachment because there are so many arcane federal laws, you can't function without breaking one." Resonate today?

I am surrounded by hard core liberals, they all voted for her, but they do not like her.
She is an extremely unlikable person and always has been.

Using the words, "intimate" and "Hillary" in the same sentence does not produce a pretty picture or an enticing ad. If the old broad told the truth during her "interviews" they would have to frog march her from the studio directly to jail. Could this be the long-awaited introduction of the Beest as the savior of the democrat party in 2020? I hope so.
Maybe they will delight us with some bonus cameo appearances of Webb's daughter and the Horndog Child Rapist? You never know.

Hagiography-I had to look it up, not being a highly educated person, but the description is apt.
A documentary about Hillary from her and her brown-nosers point of view.
This might be one of Hulu's premier events of the year.
But I sincerely doubt it.

Is she going to hang onto this for another 4 years of Trump? Even the liberals who voted for her have moved on. This is far beyond pathetic.

'One-time?' Have we already forgotten about 2008?
One-time can imply she ran once (which is clearly not true) or that she was a candidate once upon a time (i.e. a synonym for "former").
Ambiguity can be exploited to mislead the simple-minded. Or the reader in a hurry, who skims the headlines and ledes. Easily-avoidable ambiguity irks me. Making a big deal out of this one seems somewhat petty, though.

Ho hulu hoops for me. 1958 was the last time I tried anything with Hulu in it's name. I do realize I am speaking of Hula Hoops, a fad. But, hulu is close enough.

And Hellary really puts the "hag" in hagiography. I am sure that the witch in the image linked above does see her as a saint, while the rest of us just see an ugly, leftist, murdering hag.

Hillary can square off against Al Gore in declaring to be the Former Democratic Presidential Nominee. Can't decide which would be insulted most in the pair.

Honey, if they show the footage of her between 8:00pm and 2am election night, I WOULD PUT THAT ON A LOOP FOR PARTIES.
