Dear Hillary Clinton,
Americans all have different reasons to be giving thanks on this Thanksgiving holiday — and there’s one thing we should all express a little gratitude over.
Let’s take a moment and GIVE THANKS that you, Hillary Clinton, didn’t win the election in 2016!
While hindsight is often 20/20, the two years since the election have proven that American voters had a perfect vision for the future.
Here, in the spirit of the holiday, The Horn presents…
The Top 10 Reasons To Be Thankful Hillary Lost
- It’s the Economy, Stupid: That was her husband’s 1990s rallying cry… and one she seems to have forgotten. She vowed to take the country in the opposite direction of Trump. Nearly two years, Trump’s “opposite” approach has led to massive expansion and staggering growth.
- Jobs, Jobs, Jobs: That economic expansion has led to unemployment reaching its lowest level since 1969. If you want a job, there’s one out there for you right now as employers are literally struggling to fill all their openings.
- Check Your Wallet: The weak Obama economy and its sequel in a Clinton Administration would not only lead to fewer jobs, but also stagnant wages. Under Trump, wages jumped 2.9 over the past year, the fastest rate of growth since the end of the 2008-2009 Great Recession.
- Everyone Wins: It’s not just the overall jobless rate that’s falling. It’s falling across the board, with record lows for African-Americans, Asian-Americans, Hispanic-Americans and more. These are all traditional “liberal” groups left behind by the elitist policies of Clinton and Obama. No wonder more of them are supporting Republicans!
- If You Like Your Money, You Can Keep It: The massive tax cuts backed by Trump and passed by the Republican Congress means that not only are wages growing, but Americans are keeping MORE of that cash. That’s more to save, and more to SPEND which fuels even more growth, more jobs and higher wages.
- Lock Her Up: More than a year into the Robert Mueller investigation, and there’s STILL no evidence linking Trump or his campaign to any wrongdoing with Russia. But there’s plenty of evidence of Clinton corruption – enough to cripple her presidency and tank the economy, had she been elected.
- Peace On Earth: The liberal left claims Trump is a dangerously unhinged lunatic, yet he’s presided over one of the most peaceful eras in more than a generation! Clinton, on the other hand, has a long and ugly record of backing the needless use of the military, putting troops’ lives on the line for no reason.
- And Goodwill To All: The leftist media focuses on images of angry mobs, because that’s what they want you to see. But the FBI announced recently the crime rate is at its LOWEST level since Lyndon B. Johnson was president! Think that would happen in a Clinton administration hostile to law enforcement? Think again…
- North Korea: Speaking of peace and goodwill, Trump has done what no one has foreseen and gotten the lunatics in Pyongyang to dial down the rhetoric, stop testing and give REAL HOPE for a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula. There’s not a chance in the world that would happen under Clinton given her history of belligerence as both a senator and secretary of state.
- America First: Trump’s been accused by the left of igniting “trade wars,” but his policies have had the opposite effect. He’s already used sanctions as leverage for successful renegotiations with Mexico and Canada, and more favorable deals are expected soon with China, Japan, the European Union and more.
All of that good news spells what will likely be the start of one of the best holiday seasons of all, for retailers, consumers and families alike.
Happy Thanksgiving!
