She was just a tad shy of calling, Huma Abedin a terrorist. I think she does think this way. She has demonstrated it again and again. Which is why I can't rec this thread. It is too painfully close to the truth to be funny. My jaw dropped when I read that. It took me reading the whole thing and seeing it was from the Onion to figure out it was supposed to be parody. But, again it's too close to what she has actually said in the past and to close to what she seems to believe for it to be actually funny.
