Synopsis

The Hunting of Hillary traces how an entire industry of hate, lies, and fear was created to persecute Hillary Clinton for decades and profit from it.

In The Hunting of Hillary, presidential biographer Michael D’Antonio details the years of lies and insults heaped upon Hillary Clinton as she pursued a life devoted to politics and policy. The worst took the form of sexism and misogyny, much of it barely disguised.

A pioneer for women, Clinton was burdened in ways no man ever was. Defined by a right-wing conspiracy, she couldn’t declare what was happening lest she be cast as weak and whiny. Nevertheless, she persisted and wouldn't let them define her. As The Hunting of Hillary makes clear, her achievements have been all the more remarkable for the unique opposition she encountered. The 2016 presidential election can only be understood in the context of the primal and primitive response of those who just couldn’t imagine that a woman might lead.

For those who seek to understand the experience of the most accomplished woman in American politics, The Hunting of Hillary offers insight. For those who recognized what happened to her, it offers affirmation. And for those who hope to carry Clinton’s work into the future, it offers inspiration and instruction.

I have become deeply engulfed in politics since Trump took over. I am not a fan. I have read many of the anti-Trump books that have come out in the last few years and have also the intelligence reports released such as the Mueller report and various house reports surrounding impeachment.

Ok overview of Hillary Clinton’s political life from becoming First Lady of Arkansas to losing the 2016 Presidential election. It’s accurate and easy to read. Best as an introduction to the topic. As a person who knew just about everything, not so interesting. Still well written and informational.......more

Goodreads review by Tyler on November 28, 2020

Essential reading for women, men, including young men and women just starting to form their opinions about the political process. This is two stories. The first is said in the title and the jacket. Trump and his base didn’t simply take down Hillary with their misogyny and screams of lock her up. She......more
