Hillary's 'major' foreign policy speech shows how clueless she is about Trump

Secretary Clinton slams Trump for not appreciating, or even comprehending, the accepted conventional wisdom of both political parties. In so doing, she misses the point.

Trump hasn’t accepted the conventional wisdom because it hasn’t succeeded, at least not for the last decade or so.

Trump is forcing us to rethink our failed policies of the past, by relying on good, old-fashioned common sense.

You know who else did that? Reagan. In 1980 he challenged and beat the GOP establishment candidate George H.W. Bush in the primaries and went on to beat the incumbent Democrat President Jimmy Carter in the general election.

Reagan revisited the decades old policy of coexistence with the USSR and decided we should win the Cold War instead. We did within a decade, without firing a shot, by using our economic superiority.

Reagan rejected the mutually assured destruction (MAD) strategy of mutual suicide in favor of a Star Wars missile defense system that could protect us from nuclear attack.

So Hillary does have a point. Trump isn’t a conventional candidate. He doesn’t fall into line with conventional wisdom. He’s rethinking the issues. What will he come up with to replace the tired old theories of the past? Maybe nothing. Maybe everything.

Chalk up one more thing she is totally clueless on.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Hillary was preaching to the establishment choir.
She doesn’t get it. The game has changed.

[Steely Tom]

So is Trump going to respond to Hillary and refute her dumb argument? Or is he going to lay out and let the MSM do it for him.

Because if he lets the MSM do it, he's not going to be happy with the result.

I had CNN on the car radio yesterday and they were gushing so much about how she had made in their opinion the absolute best speech ever, that this was the turning point of the campaign, and it was over for Trump. We’ve heard that before, haven’t we?

[ripnbang]

They WANT it to be a turning point in her failing campaign....heck. she may not even win California.

[PghBaldy]

Meanwhile, she is trying to ignore the Bernie thugs, and the “Drip, Drip, Drip” of Server-Gate. Given the brown supremacists attacking Trump supporters, I wonder if the Rats want Trump to win?

[Balding_Eagle]

So is Trump going to respond to Hillary and refute her dumb argument?

He already has, in his San Jose rally. about 15 minutes into his speech, and again later on even more forcefully.

If she's not quaking in her boots it's only because she's so clueless.

[Buckeye McFrog]

She had to play the Daisy Ad card in June.
Smacks of total desperation.

[Steely Tom]

Thanks I will listen.

[safetysign]

Hillary is playing a Colonel Sanders offense, one single left wing and two small breasts. Trump is using the Colonel Nathan R Jessup tactics and she and the media can’t handle the truth.

[Reno89519]

If Clinton loses next week, I think it is effectively the end of her campaign. She won’t drop out directly but she’ll be gone before the convention. While she might want to continue and see herself through to the election, I think the Democratic party will see their looming defeat and survival will require action. Besides, ignore Bernie they might, but at the end of the day, he has public support that Clinton does not.

[TomGuy]

Crooked Hillary is following the same wrong political advice Cruz and other Republicans apparently received -- attack Trump.

Cruz began nearly every response to questions with 'Donald said this' or 'Donald said that'. Clinton is using a similar tactic.

Instead, they should be saying what they are going to do. So far, all Hillary does is say how great things were under BJ. Yeah? That was 20 years ago. Hillary is using that old playbook and it isn't serving her well. She and her focus groups can't even find a good descriptive that sticks to Trump. "Dangerous". "Unfit". Those just are not working.

Crooked Hillary. Yeah, Trump found one.

[gdzla]

Not only clueless about Trump but also clueless about the the American people.

[goldstategop]

Trump is for America First.

Its clear where Hillary sees America’s place in the world.

She missed the chance to define it and ended up pleasing no one.

I do not think Americans see her ready for the Big Time.

Reagan rejected the mutually assured destruction (MAD) strategy of mutual suicide in favor of a Star Wars missile defense system that could protect us from nuclear attack.

Reagan did not reject MAD! He rebuilt our military so that there was no doubt MAD was a given....but he also planned for the future of being able to protect ourselves from the other side if MAD was triggered with the Star Wars missile defense system, which Dems fought non stop!

I do not know how you could live through the Reagan years and not know this.

[Ohioan]

The "Bipartisan Foreign Policy" has been half baked for a lot longer than the past decade. Hillary is not really confused. She is simply a doctrinaire collectivist, who rejects the actual obligations imposed by the oath of office. If one simply reads the Preamble, and then reads the rest of the text in context, that oath absolutely requires that one put America First.

Donald Trump gets it. He is not committed to the destruction of our heritage. His likely opponents all are so committed.

[trebb]

She made as much sense as “Stutters” made when he couldn’t put a coherent sentence together to attack Trump with....

[RayChuang88]

And she is s terrible public speaker--even more so "off the cuff." And not much better even with a TelePrompter.
