Thanksgiving is a terrific holiday. It’s an opportunity to slow down and appreciate everything we have in life. And there are plenty of things to be thankful for in life: family, friends, health, a job, living in a free country, etc.
But, to actually be thankful for a government official past or present, Republican or Democrat, is a little beyond me. Putting total and complete faith in an elected official is a great path to disappointment, they will always let you down.
However, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” host, Joe Scarborough, let it be known what he was thankful for this Thanksgiving: Hillary Clinton.
Why give thanks for Hillary? Because we must all do a better job understanding that the treatment Secretary Clinton has received from Trump and his allies discourages others on both sides from committing their lives to public service.
Hillary deserves better.

Though I’ve not often been on her side politically, I have respected her grit, determination and fierce work ethic. History will remember her as a challenged campaigner but should also remember her as a senator passionate about policy who was respected by Senate Republicans. pic.twitter.com/YPrnqwGO46

He’s really thankful for a woman who still cannot accept the fact that she lost an election. He’s thankful for a woman who called for a lack of civility until the Democrats get back into power. But according to Scarborough, Hillary tried to make the world a better place. Ok?
Well, social media responded to Scarborough’s Thanksgiving declaration.
And we also deserve better than the relentless 24/7/365 attacks by you and the MSM on @realDonaldTrump, his administration and his appointees. It has to stop on BOTH sides!

And the comedy just keeps coming. I would not let this woman run a popcorn stand for me. The refusal of the left to acknowledge all the bad she & her hubby have done is incredible- mainly her. Do the right a favor though and keep her front and center

Joe, we're very concerned. Besides checked, do you have any of the following associated with your recent head trauma: headache, confusion (✓), lack of coordination, memory loss (✓), nausea, vomiting, dizziness, ringing in the ears, sleepiness, and excessive fatigue?

Joe, you can’t really believe this? Often I think – when you tweet such “silly” and divisive things-you can’t really mean it? Are you just looking for a reaction? Ratings perhaps?

She seriously broke our security laws and walked away free with no prosecution. She is not an honest person and deserves more criticisms than she gets.
