Nah, it's a good strategy. Throw him under the bus and then link the rest of the GOP to him. TwilightZone Jun 2016 #6

A little lacking in details, more of an attack on Trump. I enjoyed it.

I really really really wish she'd either rehearse speeches beforehand or get Obama to teach her how to read a teleprompter. She pauses every 3 words and sounds robotic when reading from the TP, it takes away from a great speech.

Better than Trump though, he sounds like a kindergartener when reading.

but she wanted to focus on Trump in this one.

I agree she could be smoother on the teleprompter. It's great when she knows what she's going to say next and can do it without reading it - she's so genuine with a great sense of humor. I hope she can go off-teleprompter more as the election season wears on.

I'll be sure to listen to that one as well.

I'm sure when the debates occur we'll hear more off prompter. Right now Don is tanking so I'd rather her be on script.

I feel very confident in Hillary Rodham Clinton at the moment.

She just needs to be measured, sure of herself, and presidential. She's doing a GREAT job so far. I have confidence in her.

Focusing on hjs personality will wear out too quickly and building him into the most evil presupposes he will be the gop candidate which isnt guaranteed. He is flaming out too quickly and may not make the convention.

Anyone who supports Trump for November will be toxic by association. The ones who don't will look disingenuous.

It's a good strategy even if he doesn't end up being the nominee. The GOP will only look more disingenuous if they somehow replace him.
