Hillary Clinton’s campaign: ‘We’ll have a press conference when we want to have a press conference’
The Washington Post ^ | 7/28/2016 | Callum Borchers

When is Hillary Clinton going to hold that long-awaited news conference — the first of 2016? Whenever she feels like it.

This has always been true, of course. The media can't force her into one. But the Democratic presidential nominee's campaign hasn't been quite so blunt about it.

Until now.

"We'll have a press conference when we want to have a press conference," Clinton pollster Joel Benenson said on ABC News on Thursday evening.

I cannot see how she can possibly agree to a debate.

Hmm. Maybe she’ll require separate locations and prerecorded answers. Trump will decline, and she’ll say, “He’s too afraid to debate!” Damn, I forget about her being an evil genius.

she Fukked up as SecOfState

she Phuqqued up badly

illegal war against Libya, illegal attacks on Syria, you name it

all to expand the power and reach of Obama’s IslamONazi murder gang thugs

not my idea of a good SofS, especially not for America’s best interests that’s for sure

it is far to her advantage to keep as quiet as possible and especially to avoid any questions about foreign policy or defense

..opens and her mouth, and removes all doubt.

Which is why everyone of the debates she agrees to (if at all), all the questions, will not be questions, but pre-screened statements beforehand. (No real debate at all)

I just have a terrible reaction to her voice.

Is it anything like this?

Hillary could shoot a NY Times reporter in the face, post it on YouTube and not face any repercussions.

Like NAZI Germany, the US has one PARTY.

......the world is more internet savvy. It also
knows the truth about the Clinton’s. Any answers she gives in an interview are hollow....any answers in a in depth interview are lies....she can’t keep up with her own lies.....

Hell, if she did, in answer to her homicide, she'd call for strict gun control.

Like NAZI Germany, the US has one PARTY.

Someone asked me if I was thinking of voting third-party in 2016. I responded, "THIRD party? I'd be happy with a SECOND!"

The only thing she is smart about is avoiding press conferences. Otherwise she is just a box of rocks with a lesbian wife.

Aside from the dual risks of looking foolish and reminding people how utterly repulsive she is, Hillary's fear of press conferences is probably driven mostly by the need to avoid making public statements that could come back to haunt her legally. Comey's recent travesty aside, she is still in severe potential legal jeopardy.

I've never seen anything like this. A nominee for President of the United States who can't talk specifically about anything she's done because she is perpetually being investigated for serious crimes, yet who a large proportion of the public nevertheless support. Beyond bizarre.

which is to say, not ever. It’s so hard to make all those reporters follow the script.

She literally said in her speech that Trump can’t handle questions from reporters, that he gets angry, that he doesn’t have the temperament. Oh really, Hillary? If you have the temperament and can handle questions, why won’t you?

I sometimes worry that Hillary's "misstatements" could be signs of a seriously impaired mental state.

Hillary's delusional belief that she was under sniper fire in Bosnia, that she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary, etc. are one thing but what if she gets elected and wakes up some morning convinced that she is under Russian ICBM attack and needs to launch and immediate counter strike?

I recommend we all simply shun her. Never listen to her, never look at her. Ignore her. Let her ratings and rantings fall upon deaf ears. Perhaps she will disappear. What a pleasant thought!

She can only handle highly scripted events.

How on earth does she expect to be able to debate Trump?

She was SET UP and she went Full Speed into the trap

Talk about sticking you foot in your mouth,
Hillary has that Cankle shoved in half way to the knee. Keep the Cameras Rolling we can make a Movie out of this yet!
(Don’t forget to keep the second camera rolling on Bill, he has already given the performance a “Two Thumbs Up”)

((( I really cleaned it up for you, tried anyway, it was much longer and had Linda Lovelace references, just didn’t think it was appropriate cause I can’t do that stuff as eloquently and tastefully as Laz can)))
