Clinton asks why she isn’t beating Trump by 50 points [Not Satire. She is Serious]
Washington Post ^ | 9/21/16 | John Wagner

Posted on 09/21/2016 7:27:20 PM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Hillary Clinton gave voice Wednesday to a question on the minds of many of her fiercest advocates in her race against the controversy-prone Donald Trump: Why isn’t she way, way ahead?

The Democratic nominee raised the issue here during an address via video conference to a gathering in Las Vegas of the Laborers' International Union of North America.

The former secretary of state ticked off her pro-union positions...

...“Having said all this, ‘Why aren’t I 50 points ahead?’ you might ask?” Clinton said. “Well, the choice for working families has never been clearer. I need your help to get Donald Trump’s record out to everybody. Nobody should be fooled.”

Because she didnt tell them that she would be “personally offended” if they didnt add to her awesome legacy.

Clintoon is living in her own hippy dippy world. She’s lost all touch with reality.

I understand that she spoke for just five minutes. Something is wrong - the Laborers are big supporters. If she were not unwell, she would have spoken for a “normal” amount of time....at least 20 minutes. Hmmmm.

Beating Trump by 50 points requires _having_ 50 points to start with. She’s got 25 at best.

And no super delegates to bribe with foundation money - oh no!

“I wonder only why she isn’t behind by 50 points!”

We need to remember that when Donald J. Trump beats hillary, he is really beating not only hillary, but the establishment, and THE MSM, which has always been in hillary’s pocket. So it won’t be that hillary put up such a tremendous fight; it’s the other two that were in on it too. JMHO.

Great graphic! Thanks for posting it!

Trump is truly battling in the belly of the beast and getting massive attendance by a margin of almost 7-to-1.

Looks like Hillary is only interested in visiting swings states. Yet I’m sure media coverage is working overtime to show parity or better for Clinton.

I’d love to see a comparison of Trump’s campaign to McCain’s back in ‘08.

Can you just imagine a Clinton vs. Bush debate:

Clinton: I’m going to raise taxes.
Bush: Me too, but smaller.

Clinton: I’m going to bring in 50 M more “refugees”.
Bush: I’m going to bring in 60 M.

Clinton: Amnesty for all.
Bush: Amnesty for all.

And on and on, it would go. Five minutes in, the nation has gone to bed.

Hilly, you are STILL flashing back to that bad acid trip in the 60s?

Hillary or Dukakis

It's not a fair comparison until we see how hillary looks in the Dukakis Helmet.
