“He drew a distinction between his own personal history, which includes
three marriages and public admissions of infidelity, with that of the
former president.”
And, one allegation of a violent assault and rape, by his ex-wife, Ivana, under oath. But who’s counting.
She does not and should not “engage” with Trump.
When you argue with a fool, observers cannot tell which one is the fool.
She should just pound him on policy, policy, policy and shoot him an occasional zinger that will drive him batshit crazy for a few days every week. Leave the mud-wrestling with the pig to the surrogates.
Trump will self destruct spectacularly as his ego grows under the constant stroking by the Reich-Wing Media and his skin gets thinner and thinner under the increasing scrutiny of the rest of the MSM.
I expect him to dodge ANY debates with Hillary because he KNOWS she would destroy him in a debate he does not control all aspects of (which the Hillary camp will never agree to.)
He will be shown for the coward and ignorant, privileged bully he really is.
Trump supporters are counting on Sanders supporters…
This is definitely the best way to go – let Clinton laugh him off and have the surrogates defend her.
My advice to Mrs Clinton is that, at the first sign of Trump’s nonsense in the first debate, she should kick him unremittingly in the balls until impeded by the onset of patellar tendonitis.
(But that’s just me.)
I suspect that’ll be a mistake.
By all means let Trump display his single trick vulgarity. He will never notice he is drowning. The trick is to throw him a golden anvil. .
Every Democratic candidate from President down to School Board will benefit from their clear contrast of ideas and policy. Republican candidates must agree or at least not disagree with whatever Trump spews. Nice. Very nice.
I agree with that approach. Skillful use of surrogates will be key…because Trump cannot tolerate attacks from anybody…he must respond personally if someone gets under his skin. She could, theoretically, have him spend the entire campaign taking swings at surrogates, without ever landing a punch on her.
In reality, it won’t play out quite like that, but that approach is still sound.
I don’t however, think Trump will try and dodge the debates…at least the first one. His ego won’t allow that, and perhaps just as importantly, his entire “meta” message is he is dominate and no silly little girl is going to challenge the manly man that he is. There is just no way that those two factors will allow him to refuse to debate her.
Now, once he gets his clocked cleaned royally in the first debate…then yes, he will try to make excuses to not attend any more (moderators were mean to him, etc.). But, the way its always worked for General election debates is you agree to all of them and schedule it all at once.
Nope
Yes. Just ask Jeb that worked so well.
MSM and HRC surrogates tell us what Clinton is thinking…she doesn’t give speeches apparently.
Yeah, I do too. In fact, Trump seems to already be shying away from the left wing attacks on Hillary. The GOP, which he desperately needs to be fully behind him in numbers, simply won’t stand for their nominee taking up positions to the left of Hillary.
Mostly what he has been doing/will be doing is trying to say that their is a deep split on the Democratic side…while turning a blind eye to the chasm on which he is teetering called the republican party.
At the end of the day, the vast majority of Bernie supporters are going to back Hillary. We may see a bit higher disaffected percentage that stay at home compared to the “PUMAs”, but that is more due to the fact that a higher percentage of Sanders supporters don’t vote at all.
But whatever happens, they won’t be backing Trump in November.
After all the crap she has had thrown at her over the years, Trumps attacks in the form of juvenile tweets are trivial.
I know, right?? Why won’t she talk to the press?
Trump is already pulling out anti-Hillary chestnuts that have long been totally discredited. But the credibility doesn’t matter - Trump has already proven he’s able to spew so many lies and no one seems to care. Soon we will be seeing supposed eye witnesses describing how they saw Hillary screaming this or Hillary throwing a vase or whatever. It will be like the swift boaters - these people will believe what they say and their words will be fodder for damaging tv spots. Kerry ignored the swift boaters - in retrospect that was a mistake.
Hillary is good and ready to charge against Donald J Trump in her race for the President of the United States!
Once she get this Democrat misogynist who is challenging her for the Democrat nominee to bow out gracefully.
Besides, Hillary is closer to reaching her delegate requirement and to be formally announced as the Democrat nominee than Trump is in earning the delegates he needs to officials clinch his RepubliCANT nomination. He must not lose hindsight, that if he has not reached his delegate pledge, then he could be challenged on the convention floor…those are the rules!
Trump is on record saying that he will consider nuking Europe, if the need arises.
He has also made statements which imply he believes the US should default on its debt obligations.
And on and on. Trump offers an all you can tweet buffet of rich and meaty targets.
For dessert one has the tax return problems, his business practices, his bankruptcies, and on and on and on.
If he lasts until the Republican convention without a serious meltdown, I will be mildly surprised.
“I couldn’t believe it, you blame the woman for male infidelity?”
That’s the re-puke way! (party of personal responsibly “cough”)
Always, always, blame the woman!
Just don’t underestimate how nasty and off-the-charts insane and unfounded the attacks on Hillary will be. They’ll be so sensational that issues like Trump’s mixed up ideas on nukes and Europe won’t get through the noise. There are so many poorly informed voters out there. All the faux hoopla over the non-issue of Hillary’s email server confuses people and makes them think there must be something to it.
