You left one out. Her decision to be above it all and refusing to actually fight back. I figured that one out when they were debating and the Jackass was wandering around her so he could get up close and personal and threatening (and she allowed that to happen!) by the time they were through demonizing her there were people believing she murdered people, ran sex slave operations out of Pizza parlors, etc.

I suspect Biden might find himself in the same position unless he actually starts to fight back. He might start by asking CNN and MSNBC to give him, at least, 2 hours of free exposure every week as they are now gift Jackass Trump with 2 hours a day!

Hell, even 1 hour a week would be better than what he has now which is, basically, nothing!

True. Clinton is a very capable administrator. She would have been a great American president. But she was a pitiful campaigner, and yes, she allowed Trump to walk all over her.

A simple "back off, big guy; respect my personal space; do you think you can bully me???" would have won her lots of points in that debate.


Please take COVID-19 seriously; don't panic but don't deny it; practice social distancing (stay 6ft from people); wash your hands a lot, don't touch your face, don't gather with too many people, so that you help us contain it.
