Hillary Clinton expressed her belief that a second term for Donald Trump would lead to the “end of our country as we know it.”

She highlighted her initial attempt to support Trump after her 2016 loss, but later criticized his actions, suggesting that he would be even more unrestrained in a second term.

“I can’t even think that. Because I think it would be the end of our country as we know it,” Clinton began. “And I don’t say that lightly.”

“You know, I hated losing. And I especially hated losing to him because I had seen some of the warning signals during the campaign,” Clinton added. “But I immediately said, ‘Look, we have to give him a chance, we’ve got to support, you know, the president we have,’ and I meant it.”

“I tried really hard, but then literally from his inauguration on, it was nothing but, you know, accusing people of things, making up facts,” she went on. “Everything that I worried about I saw unfolding, and so I think that he’d be even worse now because he was somewhat restrained — believe it or not — in the first term by people who he hired because he thought they would go along with him and they stood up to him.”

“Now, he’s going to — if he were ever near the Oval Office again — find people who have no principles, no conscience, who are totally tied to his fortunes, literally, and therefore would do whatever he said. And so the wreckage is almost unimaginable.”

She warned of the potential consequences, subtly comparing Trump to Hitler and expressing concerns about the erosion of democratic institutions.

“You know, when I was secretary of state, I used to talk about one and done, and what I meant by that is that people would get legitimately elected, and then they would try to do away with elections, and do away with opposition, and so away with a free press, and you could see it in countries where…well, Hitler was duly elected,” Clinton said.

“Trump is telling us what he intends to do,” Clinton said. “Take him at his word.”

Clinton’s comments were later blasted on social media.
