It Took Hillary Clinton Just 58 Amazing Seconds To Crush Trump’s Mexico Trip

[UCmeNdc]

Hillary Clinton needed less than one minute to expose Trump's trip to Mexico as the Republican nominee's latest empty publicity stunt.

While speaking at The American Legion Convention in Cincinnati, OH, Clinton said:

You don’t build a coalition by insulting our friends or acting like a loose cannon. You do it by putting in the slow hard work of build relationships. Getting countries to work together was my job every day as your secretary of state. It’s more than a photo-op. It takes consistency and reliability. Actually, it’s just like building personal relationships. People have to get to know that they can count on you. That you won’t say one thing one day, and then say something totally different the next. And it certainly takes more than trying to make up for a year of insults and insinuations by dropping in on our neighbors for a few hours and then flying home again. That is not how it works.

Clinton’s point was that being president involves more than quick fly-ins for photo-ops. Being president requires policies, leadership, trustworthiness, and commitment to hard work that almost always occurs with no cameras present.

Donald Trump is really good at getting headlines but has not demonstrated any interest in, or capacity for, the actual job of being president. Trump thinks that going to Mexico will make him look like a president, but the presidency isn’t a superficial job.

1. But as Don Lemon said, nobody is talking about Hillary's speech, only Trump.

2. Clinton surrogates need to step up & be a bit controversial to counter-dominate the news cycle. nt

3. The media is going to learn a hard lesson this go around.

Their influence is increasingly diminished as time trudges on. People get their information from alternate sources.

They're more of an amusing distraction than anything.

4. the media is still the primary source of most news... it's just people are getting the info from

secondary sources, which hurts the economics of the real news media, which makes them scramble for more stupid attention-grabbing stories, keeping the downward spiral going.

5. The problem is, he's getting the attention from the media and the free time.

He's getting plenty of TV time to brainwash the uninformed. Most of Clinton's air time is spent on non-existent scandals. Today's is about the ex-president's govt allowance being used for "the server" or whatever.

Now we have a few state polls were HRC has lost a few points and a few others were DT is near or within the MOE. No, I'm not "concerned." But I am pissed.

6. Hillary Clinton needed less than one minute to expose ....

I mean, really, it's like shooting fish in a barrel.
