Anyways. Reasons: justices, non-straight white male rights.

Personally I'd add in free trade, health care, environment and a lower variance foreign policy outcome but those are (presumably) less universal beliefs.

I don't think using the word delete will work out well for Hillary.

Yeah we need to get inflation up a bit. And the not being able to default is of course right

Good God Hillary and the people in charge of her Twitter account need to stop having battles with Trump over Twitter.

Like all they have to do is be the adult in the room. Stooping to his level is exactly what he wants.

Nah. I think cocky badass Hillary is exactly what needs to happen. Political equivocating bending plastic Hillary risks ruin. Gotta play to win.

I agree with this, but Twitter is the absolute worst medium to handle this. Make speeches where you ridicule Trump for his ridiculous candidacy and take the high road through social media.

It's a subtle difference, but "You literally said all those things" is nearly perfect with no response from Trump, and "Delete your account" is just what a low level Twitter troll says, and Trump knows how to deal with those.

Engaging with Trump on his own turf seems ill-advised. Trump has the mentality of a 12-year-old online, and is nearly impossible to defeat in that format as a result. Also doesn't help that Hillary's tweets are obviously ghostwritten by a millennial snarklord.

Yeah but 1. It was a super sick burn And Donald's comeback was hollow and irrelevant. If Donald has taught one thing the aggressor wins these. 2. It got what has to be a top political retweet count for the year. 3. Due to that and the coverage it got her all the free PR to drive news to the strong Obama endorsement coverage.

It was timed specifically to coincide with Obama endorsement. The many follow up tweets touting it aren't a coincidence.

I don't mind since the classic Clinton play is to project immense strength while the **** is approaching the fan.

feel like theres a chance that drumpf quits before election day with the excuse that the press are using highly unfair methods to try to destroy his business. and i base that on absolutely nothing
