After spending nearly a week in isolation, pulling the wings off butterflies and jabbing pins into a little James Comey doll, Hillary Clinton returned to the public eye on Wednesday night. Not that the public eye was particularly delighted by what it saw.

In marked contrast to her campaign appearances, Mrs. Clinton appeared to be wearing almost no makeup (causing a brief panic among building contractors that this might have been indicative of a spackle shortage), had puffy red eyes, lank hair, and in general looked about 10 years older than the last time we’d seen her.

Hillary’s supporters, still active on Twitter because, frankly, what else do they have to do with their miserable lives – seized upon Hillary’s low-glam look as a victory for feminism because Hillary was boldly bucking our patriarchal society by not tarting herself up as a sex object to please male eyes.  All we can say is “Mission Accomplished!”

Hillary was speaking at a fundraiser (no, really?) for the Children’s Defense Fund, a group which presumably tries to keep the young and innocent from swapping online photos with Huma Abedin’s husband, or climbing aboard a private jet to “Pedophile Island” in the company of Bill Clinton.

Despite a clear lack of energy, Hillary did address the outcome of the recent election, saying “I know that over the past week a lot of people have asked themselves whether America was the country we thought it was.”

And the answer, of course, is no – it’s NOT the country she thought. It’s not happily dependent on goverment handouts, not willing to accept declining standards in healthcare and education, not ashamed of exhibiting faith nor patriotism, nor is our nation the racist, sexist, xenophobic nightmare which she never tired of condemning.

Whether Hillary wants to go back to wearing makeup is her business. Whether Hillary can make up with actual Americans is our business – and it must never happen. She’s already done too much damage to ever be forgiven.

BONUS: “STAND UP” COMEDIAN

“Well, there was that time when I cut in line in front of Putin to get a shave ice…”

We can’t help but laugh (and it’s that shrill, scary laugh) when we hear Barack Obama telling Donald Trump to “stand up to Russia where they are deviating from our values and our international norms.”

You know, sort of like Barry has stood up to Russia regarding Ukraine, Syria, the build up and redeployment of nuclear missiles, cyber attacks, and the increasing games of “chicken” Russia is playing with its warcraft and the borders of our allies.

Seriously, it’s time for someone to stage an intervention for the Lame Douche – er, Duck – president. He’s out of touch with reality, and he should really look into getting mental help while it’s still covered on his presidential healthcare plan instead of Obamacare.
