Hillary Clinton is learning that sometimes it’s better to have nothing to say at all.

She’s finding her advice isn’t welcome at all.

And Hillary Clinton got the worst reality check of her life from one unexpected source.

Hillary Clinton lectures voters

During an appearance on The Tonight Show, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton showed why she turned off voters in two different Presidential campaigns by scolding them about voting for former President Donald Trump.

In response to host Jimmy Fallon asking her what she would say to voters reluctant to vote for President Joe Biden because of the border crisis, inflation, or his scheme to force them to buy electric vehicles, Clinton snarled “Get over yourself.”

She then claimed there was no choice for voters since Trump faced 91 criminal charges.

ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith responded to Clinton in an interview with CNN’s Abby Phillip.

Smith said Clinton insulting voters was silly and an example of why she lost in 2016 because she was rerunning the failed “this is not normal” message her campaign employed eight years.

This message, Smith explained, ignored the fact that voters care about what politicians are going to do to make their lives better and just shouting about a bunch of politically motivated criminal charges against Trump made Americans see Democrats as out of touch.

“I don’t think it was a very wise statement on her part,” Smith stated. “Look how that worked out for her in 2016.  I think that’s something we have to recognize. Yes, you won the popular vote, but at the end of the day, she wasn’t the President of the United States. It was him [Trump]. You can look at her not campaigning in Wisconsin in the last days, not campaigning in Pennsylvania in the last days. You can look at some of the stuff they were staying about her to sort of distract things from where it should’ve been in terms of Comey and the report from the FBI. You can bring up a whole bunch of things but at the end of the day, the last thing you need to do is to do anything that could agitate a particular voter in this particular election.”

“The voters, a lot of them out there, tens of millions of them out there, by the way, don’t care what he’s going through right now,” Smith added. “They don’t care about his guilt or innocence, his perceived guilt or innocence. They don’t care about the 91 counts. They’re thinking about their lives and a lot of times we see politicians taking the positions that they’re taking and while we can respect their candor and their honesty, they do seem a bit detached that time from what the voters are actually feeling and what the voters are actually thinking.”

In the closing stretch of the 2016 Election, Clinton was running to prey on the anxieties of voters by claiming Trump was abnormal.

Biden is running a similar campaign by falsely claiming Trump’s a threat to democracy.

Like in 2016, Trump is running against Biden on a message of putting the forgotten men and women of America first by securing the border, lowering inflation by rolling back Biden’s Green New Deal, and ending the war in Ukraine.

And polls show he is in an even stronger position than he was in 2016 because he’s speaking to the problems faced by the American people.
