A record number of Americans now dislike Hillary Clinton
Washington Post ^ | 8/31/2016 | Aaron Blake

Hillary Clinton hit her stride after the Democratic National Convention, riding to a double-digit lead over Donald Trump in some national and swing-state polls -- her highest of the year.

As of today, though, Americans' views of her just hit a record low.

A new Washington Post-ABC News poll shows 41 percent of Americans have a favorable impression of Clinton, while 56 percent have an unfavorable one.

That's the worst image Clinton has had in her quarter-century in national public life. Her previous low favorable rating this year was in July, when it was 42 percent, lower than any mark in historical Post-ABC polls except a few points in the 1990s when a large share of the public had no opinion of her. Her previous high for unfavorable views was in June, when 55 percent disliked Clinton.

As a side bar, folks: Both Hillary Clinton & Donald J. Trump were invited to visit with the President of Mexico, in Mexico City, last Friday. Trump accepted his invite and, is now headed south to to meet with the Mexican Head-of- State, this morning.

Hillary Clinton refused his invitation, responding that she will meet with him when the timing is appropriate, just like she had done when she refused to travel with the fllood stricken folks in the state of Louisiana. She used the same excuse she pulled on the Mexican Head-of-State.

Like the good, hurting flood stricken folks in Louisiana....who will never see her present on the ground in Louisiana, the President of Mexico should clearly expect the same result. Hillary Clinton is concerned about only one thing, herself. She could care less about the folks in louisiana, or, the President of Mexico!!!

Go Donald J. Trump!!!

This in the Washington Post? HUGE! This means the insiders have read the real polls and are formulating a way to get rid of the beast! Problem is she likely has dirt on most of them or they owe Billy Boy for past indiscretions! Buy stock in popcorn!

And yet she’ll still win the election because DHS will be in charge of it.

What’s taken so long? I’ve disliked her since 1992.

If all of the multi-national corporations, big banks etal who dumped money in her campaign conclude she cannot win they will order her to step down “for health reasons”.

They are probably debating this topic in smoke filled rooms (yes, the elite can smoke wherever they want) as we speak.

Ted Cruz was just a practice run for Trump.

Hillary is the real thing.

“The Compost reporting this honestly? I smell a rat. Are they paving the way for Hillary’s withdrawal?”

Nope. They are paving the way for her to make a miraculous comeback at the debates.

Being endorsed by the corrupt Barack Obama didn’t help her...

So far, Hillary has not been campaigning. I wish she would get out there and stump for the crowds, as Trump is doing. She could turn that 41% around in no time!

You mean people might not like an un-indicted felon who runs an International RICO organization that sold access to the US government, who facilitated the sale of uranium to Russia by way of money laundering through Canada while hitting the phony “reset button”, who lied to the families of the Benghazi heroes and who could only win by gas-lighting a 72 year old Independent Socialist? You mean THAT Hillary? What’s not to like?

translation: We here at Media House have determined that the time is now for her to withdraw from this race for health reasons.

One more: She also refused to respond to a questionnaire sent to both her and Donald Trump by the national Fraternal Order of Police seeking their views on issues that are important to their membership. (Trump did respond.)

She's a liar.
She's corrupt.
She's a lesbian.
She's a threat to National Security.
She's a committed socialist (where my money is concerned)
She's fat and ugly.

What in the world is there TO like about this beast?

We need to somehow get it out there that it’s Obama’s fault she never made the presidency. It’s his fault that she’s not there, he stole it from her in 2008, and it’s his fault she’s been on the hook for Benghazi, the email problem, her poor health, and that she’s aged nearly a decade before she could try again. Make her self-destruct, and use her to bring Obama down with her. Get it in her head that it’s all his fault she’ll never be there, and all bets are off.

Too bad we cannot take our level of dislike for her, and divide it out to some others, who do not dislike her.

And this is when she is being kept in hiding!

Imagine how popular she will be when Huma Weiner is finally forced to get her out of her pajamas and out into the open!
