The Destruction of Hillary Clinton

De: Susan Bordo

Narrado por: Hillary Huber

A play-by-play of the political forces and media culture that vilified and ultimately brought down Hillary Clinton during her 2016 Presidential campaign. The Destruction of Hillary Clinton is an answer to the question many have been asking: how did an extraordinarily well-qualified, experienced, and admired candidate - whose victory would have been as historic as Barack Obama's - come to be seen as a tool of the establishment, a chronic liar, and a talentless politician?

In this masterful narrative of the 2016 campaign year and the events that led up to it, Susan Bordo unpacks the right's assault on Clinton and her reputation, the way the left provoked suspicion and indifference among the youth vote, and the media's unprecedented influence.

Urgent, insightful, and engrossing, The Destruction of Hillary Clinton is an essential guide to understanding the most controversial presidential election in American history.

Very well written

I really enjoyed this book, mostly from the view point from a woman almost my age. I have felt everyone of these situation that happened to Hillary in my adult business life. Women rights and equality is a fight we are still battling though it might have a different face and tactic even from those who believe they are progressive. We have to continue educating those individuals who do not understand, if by want or ignorance.
Thank you for writing this book.

Absolute MUST READ!

I don’t care if you identify with the right, left, center, or otherwise, this book addresses issues we should ALL be mindful of regarding the affects of disinformation, & the media’s influential role in the development of the public’s consciousness. The media’s role is a crucial, bipartisan issue demanding our attention & criticism; as Americans, we must stand up & demand reliable, accurate information from all of our media sources if we have any hope of stabilizing & uniting our nation.

Very biased but worth the read

The author chooses to conclude most things in the favor of Clinton.. ie the Paula Jones case never went to trial because it was baseless rather than reality of the case settling out of court to limit the damage on both Clintons. Bernie supporters imaginary rigging of the DNC to favor HRC. She forgets to mention the women who accused Trump were all found to be false allegations. She is very negative towards Trump in every way. Still it’s fun listening to this book knowing Mrs Clinton will never be President. Had to stop the Epilogue, entirely false and biased from the first sentence. I assume she doesn’t credit President Trump for his numerous accomplishments so I did not waste my time.

Hillary should have won

The real truth behind the 2016 election. How we eelected Donald Trump as President lol

And then there was Hilary!

This was a clear and concise explanation of what happened, when it happened and why did it happen. We all expected a fair and untethered election....it was neither. It was an illegitimate election of a very poor businessman, but a conman, running for the highest office in the world with the help of Russia and our US Press and of course, the FBI (who refused to comment on the ongoing Russia investigation of the president but who did not mind commenting on the ongoing investigation of Hillary).
I never thought I would live to see the day when our Congress would let the Russians decide who would be our president. Yes, Hillary made a few mistakes....but the truth is stranger than fiction. If we survive this administration we can never let this happen again!

I wish Hillary had someone else read it to us, who anger was both a distraction and annoyance, although I can fully understand all of her emotions.
