Hillary Clinton launched into a “f***-laced fusillade” during a practice session for her televised debate with Donald Trump in the run-up to the 2016 election, according to a journalist who followed her 2016 presidential bid.
In her new book, Chasing Hillary, New York Times journalist Amy Chozick, who covered Clinton’s political career for a decade, sheds light on the inner workings of a campaign which ended in shocking defeat.
In one passage, she describes a practice debate in which Clinton reportedly cried “You want authentic, here it is!”, followed by “a f***-laced fusillade about what a ‘disgusting’ human being Trump was and how he didn’t deserve to even be in the arena”.
Trump was played in the mock debates by longtime Clinton aide Philippe Reines, the New York Times reported at the time. Reines was chosen for the part due to his familiarity with Clinton’s “personal and political vulnerabilities”, enabling him to “throw any number of embarrassing comments in her face” as he imitated her outspoken Republican rival.
Chozick’s memoir of ten years on the campaign trail also offers other insights into Clinton’s struggle to deal with Trump’s unorthodox approach. His bombastic style and disdain for policy detail threw Clinton off-message, she writes: “Trump had made her as devoid of substance as he was.”

Trick photography. Hitlery Rotten Clinton isn’t that tall.
Pig inside and out. She should run for president of hell.
>>His bombastic style and disdain for policy detail
Barbara Boxer?
Shelia Jackson Lee?
Chuck Schumer?
So many engage in both of those practices and shrug off the errors
Somebody somewhere has a recording of this. If the Rats were smart they would leak it and take the witch off the board for good.
I watched a great Doc on Netflix over the weekend, something about Trump hitting his opponents.
He was unrelenting, full of energy all the time. I laughed several times, but the comments he made during the debates were great even with the GOP.
He just devoured everyone esp once they hit him.
The best were the comments against Hillary.
I think they just wanted someone who would go on record saying what was “known”. And “plug” the possible leaks.
lol
I will admit that Trump was not a five-star debate guy...it’s just not his style. But you ask real questions to show the grasp of the economy, jobs, taxes, the marginal appeal of congress, trade, and the US military....he wins hands down against almost all other GOP and Democratic ‘players’. Most are there as ‘talking dogs’...they can’t explain how taxes influence marginal economic growth or prevent job potential.
Had Hillary come out in July and said she’d dismantle NAFTA...tearing apart the Bill Clinton-legacy....I think she would have won. But she had absolutely no idea of the public sentiment about lost jobs and the effect of NAFTA.
And I bet she smells bad.
Hillary won one carefully cherrypicked seat in NY. Otherwise, she was beaten everywhere for everything
Penis envy inside and out.
Hire me Hillary! I would be so good at this! There’s work to be done! It’s still your turn!

‘Disdain for policy detail’ is media code for ‘dumb.’
Actually this means “not communist”.
“Eloquent speakers” is why America is in the shape she’s in now; Trump is a “do’er”. He sees what needs to be done, and he’s doing it.
All Obama did for eight years is lecture us on he the thought things should be; Hillary, same thing. They were both “all hat, no cattle”. Talk, just talk.
To borrow Rush’s coined phrase, Obama and Hillary are both “symbolism over substance”.
People are tired of being talked down to, and lectured, while the country goes into the toilet.

Yet another detail and a smear from Hillary's Shillary, a Partisan Media Shill from the NY Slimes, and her eulogizing book. Thanks simpson96.
She had a mouth like a fishwife. Perhaps the only job she can now get is that of a fishwife. She will fit right in with the other fishwives.
When she starts talking about running again she needs to be told the thousand reasons she lists for why she lost still exist.
Hmmm... devoid of substance: I guess Ms. Chozik doesn’t think “Make America Great Again” was substantive enough after those eight great years of Obama... and the promises of “I’m with Her!” Hilarious, Hillary! Every day is a reminder of the disaster we avoided in the 2016 Election.
Podesta, via Wikileaks:
“Also, I’ve noticed she’s had an “odor” lately. It reminds me of a combination of boiled cabbage, urine, and farts. I’m guessing it’s either connected to her fall or simply the fact that she rarely bathes. Outside of encouraging her to take a shower once in a while, I don’t know what to do about this. — any suggestions would be appreciated.”
