is little more than a parrot. He has never broken a story, he has never successfully dug up the inside dirt on any scandal.

I suspect he is wrong again. The trumpenstein army will focus on health, not her comment.

Be more likely to hurt HRC and help him than the opposite.

What surprises me is that pretty obvious bribes of AGs and the entire donations issue seems to not get traction. Didn't Al Capone get caught on tax fraud?

Damning polls. On everything from birtherism to racism within the Trump camp.
The evidence is all there for good journalists and voters to see.

It should have gotten a lot more recs and maybe been pinned to top of greatest page. But was posted on the weekend when things are quiet around here. Maybe someone will post it again?

I think some of the more sane GOPers are totally unaware of what happens at Trump rallies and the company they keep by supporting him.

Could change at least a few minds and also force the MSM and commentators/surrogates to address this disgusting behavior.

It was mostly complimentary and truthful.

One interesting point I'd forgotten about the Clintons was that when they first came to Washington back in the 90s, they didn't do the social rounds with the established set, avoiding the cocktail parties and the schmooze fests with the who's who of the D.C. like Andrea Mitchell. It was very alienating for that crowd to not be able to rub elbows with the new first family.

That's when the hate began. I think that's when she lost Mitchell.

Add in Hillary's attempt to carve out space to have a little more influence as First Lady than her predecessors and well, we all know how that went. DC elites didn't want a First Lady with political opinions or an office in the West Wing. She must be destroyed.

What a waste of a resource trying to bench her. But 'last laugh' and all...

Makes total sense. "I hope she gets better" rings so sincere after you've told your gun-toting supporters to shoot her.

I think it hurts Trump. I think it causes voters to look at who she's talking about and I think he bleeds female and college education whites even more because of it.

It's a common known fact that many of Trump's supporters are racist, xenophobic, sexist, homophobic, and a hateful bunch of assholes.
