2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Hillary .... Fighting for the 99% [View all]HopeAgain
(4,407 posts)21. Thats fine, now let's move on.
it's simply not about Hillary anymore. if we keep her in the conversation, the Repubs will respond to all Trump criticism as if there's still a campaign going on and do same ole dodge by deflection. I have no interest in the moot discussion of Hillary v. Trump.
Now when I discuss Trump with a supporter, I ask "Yes I know how you hate Hillary. But can you defend, without considering Hillary who is now out of the picture, Trump's (insert stupid Trump thing here)? Turns out most of them haven't any justification for his stupidness when they can't just say he's better than Clinton.

I thought the speech remark was a weak attempt to insinuate that Hillary only gives speeches

What Trump gives a shit about is wholly irrelevant and does not reflect on Clinton in any way.
