Rejected presidential candidate and gun-ban advocate Hillary Clinton apparently believes civility in politics is necessary only when her party is in power.

According to a feature at dailycaller.com, Clinton told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour that it’s not possible to be civil toward an opposing political party that, as she says, “wants to destroy what you stand for.”

“That’s why I believe, if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and/or the Senate, that’s when civility can start again,” she said. “But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength.”

In essence, Clinton’s statement was a not-so-veiled call for disgruntled far-Left liberals to continue ratcheting up the hateful rhetoric, threats and violence they are quickly becoming known for. Such hatefulness and hypocrisy are among the reasons Donald Trump is in the White House, while Clinton is content appearing on second-rate news shows on a failed fake news network.
