Discussion: Clinton Urges Action On Climate Change Over Protests In Miami

Brava, Madame President!

Now that Drumpf is toast, your campaign and the DNC need to start pouring money and effort in to the toss-up Senate races to ensure we take control of the Senate to allow you to accomplish great things!

And the House - if we control the House, we can make sure that funding goes towards infrastructure rebuilds and green energy initiatives.

Clinton was frequently interrupted during her address by protestors screaming “Bill Clinton is a rapist!”

Probably Jameis Winston fans who insist that women who allege rape are lying bitches.

Congrats, GOP, here’s another thing you’ve built.

For all the people who keep claiming that both candidates are the same and never talk policy, that they just attack each other, that Hillary only campaign tactic is to tell us we have to vote for her because she’s not Trump, look at the above story and her effort to put climate change in the story.

Then check out her new policy on helping families in extreme poverty.

I am so sick of people on the left and the right demonizing Clinton for being policy free when she is out there every day pushing ideas and proposals. She’s a fricking wonk, people, which is part of the reason why she’s not as relatable as, say, George W. Bush.

More of this coverage please. Trump has enough large issues (Russian puppet, lying, bigotry, misogyny, etc.) that we don’t need to hear every little thing he or the alt-right do, stick to the big items and give us more positive news, which Hillary seems to excel at despite the media narrative these past 15 months.

Wait, what? Hillary didn’t demand that the protest be ejected from her rally? Hillary didn’t say she wanted to punch him/her in the face and encourage the crowd to beat up the protester? Hillary didn’t offer to pay the legal fees for any assault charges?

Free speech? Well, that’s just not gonna make America great again…

It’s only free speech because Donald’s not going to pay that plant whatever he said he was going to.

I would have liked to have the last paragraph expanded. It’s nice to read the transcript of some parts of her speech, but they are all about the need for action and not the solutions. The last paragraph indicates she proposed solutions, but doesn’t give us any.

Wait, she didn’t have the protestors tossed out while shouting “Get 'em outta here!” What’s wrong with her?

I wouldn’t mind if I never saw an article about Trump again.
By the way, have people here read the MoJo article about Trump’s phony 2015 FEC income estimate? In the UK, where expenses of his golf courses are public record, he LOST money where he is claiming $26 million in “income”.

And the house! Republicans will not admit it was their positions that caused the defeat if it will simply be an electoral vote landslide, if it will be a popular vote landslide, if the Senate flips to Democrats. The only chance to hammer something into their heads is to have a clean sweep of the presidency, house, and senate so they are a true minority party. Maybe than they will understand that they will have no power until they reform. Or maybe a new second party forms instead. But the country needs a total landslide from all possible perspectives.

If you watch MSNBC/CNN these days all you see is dirt from both sides and horse race…and almost no policy.

This while AGW/Climate Change is the issue of our children’s lifetimes.

Amen!! I’ve been reading all her detailed proposals from the get go and they are really solid and important. But tell that to the media and to the NYT!!

God knows what other environmental timebombs are out there too. Microfibers, for instance? Agriculture/monoculture?
We need a leader who considers stewardship of the planet a top priority.
@spencersmom I knew about Trump conflating revenue and income, but the MoJo piece adds some nice detail.

People were getting shot at regarding Nam in the 1960s…both Anti-War and G.I.'s
Civil Rights workers were getting killed in the 1960s
Women were getting more attention to their already present activities for their rights in the 1960s
Cesar Chavez and Latino workers were getting more attention in the 1960s.

I was glad to see some young faces in the photo in this article…This represents the many many dedicated young people who want their country back.

We KNOW the haters on the right are motivated…This election is about those who do NOT hate getting involved.

My daughter, who is 16, said to me yesterday, “Daddy, doesn’t Trump understand that Bill Clinton is not running? And also, the more he attacks Hillary on Bill’s problems, the more she becomes a sympathetic figure.”

A dismal description of our national journalistic “Cirque de Malais”

Read and bemoan.

Josh has been reporting for months now that HO has been inflating his “income” by reporting gross revenue rather that net income. He thinks it makes him look more successful but it just makes him look like the idiot he is. Bigly.
