Okay, Donald Trump's attacks on Hillary seem fueled by research reports on steroids, BUT an actual HRC run for the presidential roses was never going to be easy. Just one reason why it's weird that she strikes so many politicos & pundits as a strong candidate. Has always seemed to me that she's always been spectacularly weak.
First & foremost - she is just not likeable. That is not sexist. It's reality. She does not have a likeable personality. She's someone I have no interest in sharing a beer with or even a full evening of carousing, with the bill on her! Yes, being a woman does seem to intensify the reality that she seems shockingly devoid of warmth. She is, weirdly enough, the opposite of her husband in ways that really count - not warm, sexually neutral, a grating voice, easily irked.
It is strange that we apparently will have two candidates running for the presidency where one has NO filter & the other is ALL filter. That was always bound to be a problem - her apparent lack of spontaneous authenticity - but it is magnified going up against Trump.
It's not that Hillary seems two-faced, but that she seems NO faced. That strange quality came across when she was FLOTUS, it has only intensified since. The absolute WRONG candidate to be running in a year when faceless is suspect.
Only an idiot couldn't foresee problems with the Clinton Global Initiative/Clinton Foundation contributions. Imagine the myriad, multi-level conflicts of interests! Typical Hillary that the biggest problem I have with her run is one of her own making. And the second biggest problem I have is that she doesn't see it. What alarms me is that her supporters don't see how this alone should disqualify her.
Forget Bill's affairs. Old news. But certain to be brought up again & again & again since how she reacted does give an indication of how she rolls. Whitewater? Ditto. Old news, but the fact that she insisted it was NO news gives an insight that leaves me uneasy. Benghazi is a conservative wet dream, but the e-mail problem is a mess - and another mess of her own making.
Donald Trump says a lot of bombastic things that are off the charts weird. But he was right in this - scandal & messiness follows in Hillary's wake. The e-mails show shocking lack of judgment in someone with the presidency always in her sights. She's so expert at getting in her own ways, she should write a book, Dreams of My Falters.
Yeah, dreams of a smooth HRC run were always delusional. It's going to be an awful 5+ months, then God help us after!
