June 5, 201610 yr You're kidding, right? When has the press asked her a tough question and gone after her like they have any Republican? I know you believe that she has been treated with kid gloves (congress really was kind BTW), but what question do you want that hasn't been asked, Cap?
June 5, 201610 yr I know you believe that she has been treated with kid gloves (congress really was kind BTW), but what question do you want that hasn't been asked, Cap? How about one that she hasn't approved before hand? How about tough questions about her email scandal. How about some that keep pressing her after her, "It's just a misunderstanding" answer. OK, how are we misunderstanding it? Are you for securing our border? If so, how? What do we do with those that are already here illegally? Why do you rail against Wall St. while taking money from them? Just a few.
June 5, 201610 yr Trump has allowed himself to be scrutinized by the press. Hillary has not faced a tough question this entire election season.And if anyone can call her out on her cowardice, it's the Donald.
June 5, 201610 yr You're kidding, right? When has the press asked her a tough question and gone after her like they have any Republican? Shoot, when has she had a press conference?
June 5, 201610 yr How about one that she hasn't approved before hand? How do you know? How about tough questions about her email scandal. How about some that keep pressing her after her, "It's just a misunderstanding" answer. OK, how are we misunderstanding it? I can't imagine you'll get more than that until the case is over. But it's not a new question. Are you for securing our border? If so, how? What do we do with those that are already here illegally? She has answered this. Google it. Why do you rail against Wall St. while taking money from them? Oh, Cap, you missed the dem debates in the Spring. This was one of Bernie's primary weapons. She was asked the questions many times from press and on live tv from the Bern. Just a few. You're missing my point. I'm not even defending her. The rhetoric she hasn't taken on tough question is just crazy.
June 5, 201610 yr You're missing my point. I'm not even defending her. The rhetoric she hasn't taken on tough question is just crazy. Her debates with Bernie will be like 4 years olds sparring compared to Mr Trump. Hillary has a short fuse. You will see her blow. Wait and see.
June 5, 201610 yr I don't think she had teleprompters during the (I've lost count of how many) hearings. Unfortunately, while answering questions about the first US ambassador to be killed in a long number of years her response was 'what difference does it make.' That is a very contemptuous attitude where 4 Americans were killed in a planned, sustained, 9-hour attack. There were probably questions not asked that the CIA did not want asked. Such as: - Why did Ambassador Stevens have a meeting with a representative of Turkey before the attack? - What was the subject of their conversations? - What was linkage between Libya and Turkey? - Why were the number of CIA operatives in Benghazi not known to the response team from Tripoli? - Why was Cross Border Authorization for US forces to enter Libya never given? And those are the unasked questions just on Benghazi. Sometimes it still feels like kabuki theater with both parties.

In Context: Hillary Clinton's 'What difference does it make' comment | PolitiFact The article goes a little farther than the meme. Those are viable questions, but I'm pretty sure those were not questions HRC was empowered to answer on record.
June 5, 201610 yr Trump will hopefully learn from his mistakes and adapt. Two things to consider though. Trump has allowed himself to be scrutinized by the press. Hillary has not faced a tough question this entire election season. She will not be able to escape her record during the debates. Second, we are headed for recession. Both the jobs report and GDP decline point in that direction. Economic insecurity favors Trump strongly. I enjoy most of your posts and your viewpoints on Trump. But if you think Hillary Clinton has had a pass in this election cycle, Trumpism may be overtaking your perspective.
June 5, 201610 yr As to whether the election is over, Hillary's biggest obstacle to the presidency is not Trump. It is her own actions in the email investigation from the beginning of placing that server in her home till now.
June 5, 201610 yr You're missing my point. I'm not even defending her. The rhetoric she hasn't taken on tough question is just crazy. I guess we have a different view on what a tough question is. The coal miner in WV asked her a tough question and she fumbled it. That is the type question she needs to be asked. Not defending her? When have you stopped? :lol2:
June 5, 201610 yr I enjoy most of your posts and your viewpoints on Trump. But if you think Hillary Clinton has had a pass in this election cycle, Trumpism may be overtaking your perspective. HRC has been grilled only by the gop committees, the press has used kids gloves with HRC. The coal miner question is a good example of what she has missed out on. The liberal media presses her, but backs off without really pushing her buttons, I've watched it the entire campaign cycle.
