It is unclear whether former first daughter Chelsea Clinton is on an international mission to discredit President Trump or a book tour to sell her new children’s book.

The author of “She Persisted Around the World” certainly appears to be cashing in on her disparaging comments of Trump by questioning the competence of his staff and claiming that his presidency is degrading the nation.

It is a good thing she is staying clear of calling him a sexual predator, like other Democrats, during this #MeToo movement. It would be a bit ironic and could get awkward, given the history of allegations against her father, not to mention the criticism that Bill Clinton himself degraded the presidency by having a sexual relationship with a young intern in the Oval Office. A lot of people think that degraded America.

Her interviews so far on the book seem to end up focusing heavily on a topic not mentioned in her children’s stories, which is Trump.

She should have just written a book about how much she hates the current president, since no one seems too curious about what she chose to write — the stories of the powerful women who shaped her life.

But consistency has never been Clinton’s strong suit, so it is no surprise she wrote about the empowering story of women but spends all her time talking about a strong man.

Here’s an excerpt from an interview with a British media outlet:

“I’ve been to multiple protests since the election,” Clinton said. “If I lived in Britain I would show up to protest, because I don’t agree with what he’s doing to degrade what it means to be an American.”

Clinton’s life undoubtedly took a devastating turn in 2016 when her mom lost the presidential election. All of her power and influence disappeared when Hillary lost, which would suggest Chelsea has a chip on her shoulder.

She’s obviously taking out that anger with comments like this one:

“Not only do I want an administration that isn’t venal, corrupt and focused on making life harder for millions of Americans, I also want a competent administration,” she said. “So for me, the larger question is the collision of cruelty and incompetence and corruption that we see across the administration.”

I wonder if she is referring to the same kind of “corruption” in the Clinton Foundation?

None of these comments seem on par with a children’s book tour, if that is really what it is, rather than another effort to position herself for an as-yet-to-be-determined political future.
