Al Gore famously did the same thing to Bush in the 2000 debates at one point and he didn't go b*tching about it. That's just how the big boys play with each other sometimes. I mean what the hell would she do if/when she was nose to nose with Putin or these middle eastern heads of state, or the Chinese?
You do recall that she was Secretary of State, right?

Trumpers distort every normal Hillary behavior and see it as abnormal. And they try to normalize every aberrant, bizarre, abnormal, unethical Trump behavior that the majority recognize as totally not within the realm of normal. You can't cure the cult from their delusions.

This behavior used to be described as, "Strain at a gnat, swallow a camel." Only in this case, it's straining at every behavioral equivalent of a miniscule Hillary gnat, while swallowing whole every behavioral equivalent of a gargantuan Trump T-Rex, Stegosaur, Pterodactyl, Mastodon, Sabre-tooth or other aberration. And, boy, are there a bunch of them. Cultishness will do that as it is, in itself, an abnormality and an aberration. Normal people know that. Cult members don't.

I disagree. On this forum maybe. I think you have some paid trolls here & some people who are off-the-deep-end partisan. In real life, most Democrats I know are reasonable & think Hillary is a joke.

Has any major establishment Democrat/media figure/celebrity called her out? Seems they are all nodding their heads

This women should just go away in retirement and be thankful that Obama/Lynch/Comey protected her from serving 10 years in a federal prison.

I could see where it is likely the media hurt Hillary. The coverage was so lop-sided and farcical that people probably stopped believing her alleged positive qualities and only registered the negative ones.

Default Hillary: Trump "seems to want to be... a white authoritarian"

Being called authoritarian is bad, I guess, but adding the word "white" in front makes it super duper bad.
Quote:
Mugabe may be “authoritarian,” but at least he’s not “white authoritarian.”

In the future, instead of accusing Trump of being a “white authoritarian,” Hillary will accuse the President of being an “authoritarian white.” And, then, he’ll just be accused of being “white,” enough said.
But is it any surprise then that not enough white people voted for Hillary to make her President?

I suppose she thinks the Founding Fathers were evil "white authoritarians"?

I'm a white person, so maybe I'm biased, but I doubt that... I just don't see the difference between being a white authoritarian or a black authoritarian. In fact, I'm not so sure why the race of the despot is worth mentioning in the first place. It's not like having your right to vote stripped by a black dictator is somehow less problematic that having it stripped by a white dictator.

It does make me want to read Clinton's book more and more though. It seems like it will be a good laugh and a pretty good weapon to use against the obvious examples of corruption and the lack of focus in the Democratic party.
