Trump’s new derisive nickname for Clinton _ ‘Rotten’

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks during a town hall, Monday, July 25, 2016, in Roanoke, Va.


ROANOKE, Va. (AP) — Donald Trump has a new, derisive nickname for his Democratic rival: Hillary “Rotten” Clinton.

Addressing backers in an overly warm ballroom in Roanoke, Virginia, the Republican presidential nominee on Monday lashed out at Clinton as low-energy and needing naps. He argued that she dropped her maiden name of Rodham because it sounds like Rotten.

For years, she chose to use the name Hillary Rodham Clinton.

“Why did she get rid of it? Hillary Rotten Clinton, Rotten Clinton. Hillary Rotten Clinton, right?” Trump told the crowd. “Maybe that’s why, it’s too close.”

Trump has repeatedly referred to Clinton as “Crooked Hillary.”

The event was held in the home state of Clinton’s new running mate, Sen. Tim Kaine, whom Trump derided as a “weird little dude” and a political “hack.” Trump argued that Clinton made a mistake when she chose Kaine, describing the well-liked former governor and senator as the opposite of a fiery liberal that supporters of Clinton’s former rival Bernie Sanders may have been drawn to.

What I’m saying is,if your liberal friends are upset about the disclosure and not the damning content-then they are disingenuous people and you should find some better people for friends.

I always thought of Rot Ham when I heard Rodham, so Rotten is just as good :)

A tennis?
I have to turn off my word suggestions too.
Tennis ball? like back and forth relentlessly?

Trump’s not saying anything that hasn’t been said by 50% of the country for a long long time.

Well... the name Hillary Rotten Clinton has been used here on FR for many, many years.

This is such a mess that Hillary may not even get a bounce out of the Convention.

Yeah, but Michelle went way up in the polling and is now considered a viable candidate against Bernie Sanders.

Here is Michelle and a bunch of her delegates from last night.
