| Camille Paglia: ‘Hillary wants Trump to win again' |
| 2018-12-05 |
| [Spectator] Camille Paglia is one of the most interesting and explosive thinkers of our time. She transgresses academic boundaries and blows up media forms. She's brilliant on politics, art, literature, philosophy, and the culture wars. She's also very keen on the email Q and A format for interviews. So, after reading her new collection of essays, Provocations, Spectator USA sent her some questions. You've been a sharp political prognosticator over the years. So can I start by asking for a prediction. What will happen in 2020 in America? Will Hillary Clinton run again? If the economy continues strong, Trump will be reelected. The Democrats (my party) have been in chaos since the 2016 election and have no coherent message except Trump hatred. Despite the vast pack of potential candidates, no one yet seems to have the edge. I had high hopes for Kamala Harris, but she missed a huge opportunity to play a moderating, statesmanlike role and has already imprinted an image of herself as a ruthless inquisitor that will make it hard for her to pull voters across party lines. |

| #4 She failed there, and the journalist for not retorting. She just needed to be reminded of to whom Washington DC votes... |

| #3 the deep state is probably equally populated by Republicans Ahh, the good old false equivalency "they all do it". I thought she would go beyond that. Yes there are so called Republicans there (see also RINOs) but what it really is is the unified inner party of the beltway that is dominated by the Left since the antidote is individualism and the Left don't do that. |

| #1 An off word at work or school will get you booted to the gallows. This is the graveyard of liberalism, whose once noble ideals have turned spectral and vampiric. |
