Poor Hillary. (Just kidding.)
No matter how long or how desperately Hillary Clinton tries, no one (including the Democrats) seems to care anymore. Not that most people ever cared; at least not enough to vote her president in 2016, but, yeah. Either way, Hillary is back—with irrelevant support.
First, as RedState reported on Tuesday, Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), a member of the ridiculous “Squad,” along with the equally idiotic Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN), will almost certainly be defeated in the June 25 New York primary.

So, irrelevant Hillary steps up to endorse controversial Democratic opponent Bowman in the race for New York’s 16th District, as if her endorsement matters. Needless to say, TDS-ridden Hillary also criticized former President Donald Trump (who Despite it lives rent-free in her head, 24/7), the likely Republican presidential candidate for 2024.
With Trump on the ballot, we need powerful, principled Democrats in Congress more than ever.
In Congress @LatimerforNY will defend abortion rights, stand up to the NRA, and fight for President Biden’s agenda – just like he always has. Plan to vote by June 25th!

Frankly, I doubt Hillary Clinton cares one bit about her opponent, Westchester County Executive George Latimer, or that she dislikes Jamaal Bowman as much as she claims. Because one constant remains: Hillary takes care of Hillary, and anyone she sees as standing in her way should go to hell.
Hazel Dukes, President of the National NAACP, said“Bill and Hillary Clinton are still popular in the Democratic Party,” but admitted that she did not believe Hillary’s support for Latimer would make a difference in the race between Bowman and Latimer.
It’s about everyday issues. The economy, inflation. They are bright voters.
Are they? If these so-called “smart voters” are voting Democrat regardless of the candidate, how can you tell?
But former Rep. Max Rose (D-NY) said it was still a bitter fight and Hillary’s support was significant:
Of course they want Hillary’s support. For Latimer, that’s a net gain. For Bowman, it’s politically damaging.
How? Bowman has also proven that he is quite capable of hurting himself.

To Hillary’s credit — who would have thought? — here’s more from the NY Post story (link above).
One factor that has dominated the open battle between Bowman and Latimer is the war between Israel and Hamas. Bowman was an early advocate of a ceasefire and has implied that genocide is taking place in the Gaza Strip.
Latimer, on the other hand, supported Israel and regularly criticized Bowman for his rhetoric, such as as his defense the phrase “From the river to the sea” – generally interpreted as a call for the annihilation of the Jewish state.
The Westchester County executive enjoys the support of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, something Bowman had complained about.
Bowman has also been under fire for a number of controversies, including trigger a fire alarm last year during a tense scene in Congress over government funding.
Last October, the Bronx and Westchester County lawmaker pleaded guilty to intentionally setting off the alarm.
On the other hand, I have just stated my previous position.
Bowman is a clown who does clown-like things. Latimer, on the other hand, seems to be a decent guy politically by Democratic standards.
But the point remains: What the hell does a behind schedule endorsement of Hillary Clinton achieve? Zero. Hillary is just desperately trying to stay relevant – if you consider that she ever was.
