Who better to bring Americans together and help them find common ground than the woman who sees half of Trump supporters, including those in the rustbelt states she lost, as a basket full of deplorables? A woman who looks down from atop her high perch at “flyover” country and sees swarms of xenophobes, racists, sexists, Islamaphobes, haters, “you name it“?
Hillary Clinton said Friday she’s “ready to come out of the woods” and help Americans find common ground.Clinton’s gradual return to the public spotlight following her presidential election loss continued with a St. Patrick’s Day speech in her late father’s Pennsylvania hometown of Scranton.”I’m like a lot of my friends right now, I have a hard time watching the news,” Clinton told an Irish women’s group.But she urged a divided country to work together to solve problems, recalling how, as first lady, she met with female leaders working to bring peace to Northern Ireland.”What can we do to try to bring people together and to try to find that common ground, even higher ground, sister, so that we listen to each other again and we know that we can make a difference? I’m not sure it will come out of Washington yet, but I think it can come out of Scranton. Let’s find ways to do that,” she told the Society of Irish Women.”I am ready to come out of the woods and to help shine a light on what is already happening around kitchen tables, at dinners like this, to help draw strength that will enable everybody to keep going,” said Clinton, who was spotted taking a walk in the woods around her hometown of Chappaqua, New York, two days after losing the election to Donald Trump.
