A plurality of American voters – tens of millions – may be about to elect Hillary Clinton, a candidate widely described as the most corrupt person ever to run for the U.S. presidency, preceded by over three decades of wall-to-wall scandals, sleaze, corruption and outright criminality, including an ongoing FBI investigation into the wildly corrupt Clinton Foundation. How is this possible?

That’s the question veteran journalist and WND Managing Editor David Kupelian asked – and answered – late last week while guest-hosting the “The Jesse Lee Peterson Radio Show.”

Could it be, Kupelian wondered aloud, that Bill and Hillary Clinton are so sociopathic that the average American can’t even comprehend their dark motivations, since they don’t harbor such impulses or feelings within themselves?

“I don’t think people get criminality,” said Kupelian, an award-winning journalist and best-selling author of several books on evil, including “The Marketing of Evil,” “How Evil Works” and, most recently, “The Snapping of the American Mind.”

Most voters, explained Kupelian, size up candidates according to their politics and worldview. “We are so used to thinking about liberal/conservative, big government/small government, you’re against gay rights/you’re for gay rights or gay marriage, and so forth. We get that – and then we vote accordingly.”

But truly sociopathic or criminal thinking is foreign and opaque to the average voter’s thinking, he said.

“We understand people because of what we have in ourselves. We can extrapolate,” he said, citing for example: “We understand somebody who’s got envy, because we’ve had envy. We understand a person who got really angry and killed somebody and went to prison. We maybe have never gotten that angry, but we have been angry – and so we sort of understand that person.” However, he said, “We don’t really understand people who dream of controlling entire nations.”

It’s hard for “everyday Americans” to understand how Hillary Clinton could laugh after declaring, “We came, we saw, he died,” referring to the death of Moammar Gadhafi; or how she could lead a NATO bombing effort that killed thousands in Libya and destabilized the country; or how she could look Gold Star parents directly in the eyes at a casket ceremony three days after the Benghazi terror attack and lie to them about why their children died.

“We don’t understand,” said Kupelian, “the mentality of people who are so into their own ambition and what they want that they are willing to literally sacrifice thousands of people. We don’t have thoughts like this, we don’t have fantasies like this, and so therefore we don’t understand” when such foreign and dark forces motivate others, especially when they have such a cultivated and civilized exterior.

“The danger of this,” said Kupelian, is that in Americans’ “innocence or naïvete, we give other people that are truly in the grip of evil, we give them a pass, because it’s not on our radar – we don’t see it in ourselves, we don’t understand criminality. I think people don’t understand Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton.”
