I’m stating the obvious… Hillary’s speech has really, really, REALLY gotten under his skin.

And yes, I weep for my country when an animated chicken is the voice of reason.

At outset of campaign, the hypocrisy of his “I dont need to apologize” vs “You must Apologize” was breathtaking. So much dumpster fire has ensued in months since. But it’s still so— hypocrisy then. hypocrisy now. Hypocrisy forever.

Funny, looking at that all I think is “I guess I was too young at the time, but Hillary was pretty cute back then”.

Now, ah say, ah say any classic-era Warner Brothers cartoon is a thing for rejoicing over, not weeping. The main joke with FL was his constant loud talking, self-absorption and obvious lack of self-awareness. If many of us were prepared to recognize and fight the Orange Menace, it might be that Foghorn helped us recognize the type.

I guess I’ve grown pretty used to Trump’s bullshit when the thing that annoys me most about this video is the misspelling of “Clintons”.

“Super Predator”?

I thought she was just anticipating the drones she will soon control as president.

Obama is a saint.

Edit: The above link is about Trump bringing up that no one is going to vote for a black president on account of Obama.

Some additional context:

This is the evidence upon which Ben Jealous bases his claim that Hillary was “pushing” the Superpredator theory, which is pretty thin even on its face. She referenced it once, twenty years ago. If you look at the context of that quote, however, it becomes clear that Hillary wasn’t using the term as a broad slur against young black youths, but as a specific reference to those involved in gang murders, and she wasn’t using it to advocate for mass incarceration, she was promoting something called “community policing”:

… Hillary wasn’t “pushing” anything, unless making a reference to something once, at a speech in which that thing is part of the fourth thing on a list of five things. Was her word choice poor? In hindsight, yes, but it’s funny how time heals things for Ben Jealous when it comes to Bernie Sanders, who voted for the same crime bill that Berniacs deride Hillary over, even though she did not have a vote on it:

Clinton rules rules!

Edit, the link has the full audio and it’s clear that the remarks in question specifically addressed organized gang violence.
