Well, well, well. If it isn’t Her Imperial Majesty, Hillary Rodham Clinton, once again crawling out from the political abyss to remind us all why she remains the reigning queen of smug irrelevance. One would think that after decades of public embarrassment, multiple failed political campaigns, and a spectacular loss to Donald J. Trump, she’d have learned when to gracefully exit the stage. But no, here she is, still lobbing weak attacks from the sidelines, blissfully unaware that she’s become outdated, unwanted, and entirely useless.
This time, Her Royal Highness decided to take a swipe at Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on X, which turned out about as well for her as you’d expect. Hegseth, being just a tad sharper than Hillary, responded by posting that infamous 2009 photo of her grinning like a schoolgirl while presenting Russia’s then-Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov with the now-legendary “Reset” button.
You remember, the one that was supposed to mark a fresh start in U.S.-Russia relations but instead turned into a complete disaster? Oh, and let’s not forget that the button was mistranslated to say “overcharged” in Russian, which, come to think of it, is exactly what American taxpayers were every time Hillary cashed a government paycheck.
It’s almost poetic, really. Hillary, who literally handed a “Reset” button to the Russians, is now trying to act like some sort of foreign policy mastermind, criticizing Trump’s approach to dealing with Putin. You know, the same Trump who, during his first term, kept Russia in check without starting a war—unlike, say, the Obama administration, which stood by twiddling its thumbs while Putin marched into Crimea.
Wouldn’t want to hurt Putin’s feelings. https://t.co/rK69K8RCBD

But Hillary’s inability to read the room isn’t a new development. Just a few weeks ago, she made the mistake of going after Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, who promptly handed her yet another L. You’d think she’d learn by now that stepping into the ring with members of the Trump administration is a bad idea when you have the rhetorical skills of a malfunctioning Roomba. But alas, self-awareness has never been her strong suit.
Naturally, the replies on X were pure gold. Some noted her strangely chummy relationship with Putin—after all, she did preside over that little “Uranium One” deal, didn’t she? Others pointed out the irony of her attacking the same administration that actually did something to deter Russia, rather than bending over backwards to accommodate it. And, of course, there were the inevitable “Hillary and tigers” jokes, a nod to that awkward photo of her gazing adoringly at a caged tiger, which is still somehow less trapped than she is in her own delusions of relevance.

One user even offered her some sound advice: maybe, just maybe, it’s time to stop embarrassing herself. But here’s the problem—Hillary Clinton is fundamentally incapable of embarrassment. If she had that capacity, she would have disappeared into quiet retirement after the first time she lost to Trump. Instead, she keeps reappearing, trying to take swings at people who are simply better at this game than she is. And every single time, she gets burned.
Hillary, sweet heart, I know is Sunday but hand the phone back to your team, you are embarrassing yourself and taking the chance to newly incriminate yourself 🫡💀😆

At this point, watching Hillary attempt political combat is like watching a retired boxer wander into a UFC ring, convinced she still has what it takes—only to get knocked out in the first round. But here’s the best part: she doesn’t even realize she’s lost. She just keeps getting back up, dusting herself off, and convincing herself that this time she’s going to land a punch. Spoiler alert: she won’t.
