Trumps biggest weakness is his insecurity and he cannot handle any criticism, at all
All Hillary has to do is say.. here is what the leaders of his party have said about him in just the
last 24 hours.
She could start with repeating quotes from McCain, Lindsey Graham, Paul Ryan condemning Trump
The GOP rats are jumping ship left and right, the list of quotes is endless
Those quotes alone would drive Trump completely nutts, believe me!!!!

Look, I know everyone expects me to address this, at least in some way. But I really don't need to say ANYTHING about it.. let me read a few quotes in just the last 24 hours about you from the top leaders of your own party ....
and read off a few GOP leader quotes completely condemning Trump

"Who cares what that senile old prisoner of war thinks? He's a nobody."

(8,969 posts)Is that kinda like asking Sara Palin what newspapers she reads is a media 'gotcha question' ?
Well ok, your concern is noted
Thanks

(13,390 posts)It's a question and answer town hall style. A moderator or an audience member is bound to ask. The problem with the media and party driven debates is that they have turned them into foolish banter. It's up to the candidates to elevate the content and dialogue. I hope she will.
KelleyKramer
(8,969 posts)OK, thanks for that advice

(13,390 posts)Slamming the opponent rather than taking an opportunity to talk broadly about policies and plans is indeed childish.
It is also where you see contrast between their levels of maturity and knowledge.

(15,543 posts)I hope Hillary says that again. It indicts not just Casino Donnie, but the whole frikken corrupt & corpulent Republican party. And it's kinda catchy.
When she made that stingingly true remark the first time, it got just a nano-blip of attention. There was too much else going on. And of course that's the case now, as well.
But to say it a second time - now in the midst of the raw Republican self-inflicted sex shitstorm - will remind voters that when it comes to bread-and-butter issues like taxes and money, the whole perverse, soul-twisted Republican Party is (as always) pissing all over the American people.
