Hillary is taking off today. Seems she has needed alot of days off to rest during the campaign.
How many days I wonder is she going to have to take off to rest after she gets in the WH.

As far as Trump goes he should have hit her hard on Benghazi and the famlies of the lost lives.
He missed that opportunity. He has no one to blame in the end but himself.

I noticed Hillary looked like she was reading notes during the debates.
I believe she might have very well known the questions.

Chris Wallace was no better than the rest of the narrators.

Anybody see this last night Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner?

Seems Trump and Hillary actually took the night off to be friends again :wink:

Hillary was laughing at the jabs Trump aimed against her. Think he really wants her to be Pres. :wink:

I have to say she is a good looking woman for her age!

^^
some pretty tough jabs by both sides
Trump was taking some boo's
and Hillary was probably taking some booze


Politics - Lovely Linda - 21-10-2016

I didn't hear Hillary. Sorry to say I just can't listen to her anymore.

I heard the boos toward Trump. He took alot of boos.
So, that is why Hillary was in such a good mood listening to Trump. I see now. She was drinking Black Jack :laugh:


Politics - CRAZY-HORSE - 22-10-2016

the best jab in the debate came from Hillary IMO...

"while Donald was hosting his reality tv show The Apprentice I was in the Situation Room monitoring the take down of Bin Laden".....classic comment!


also Linda,

further up the page you commented on that you suspect her of knowing the questions because it appeared she was reading notes...

I know out here when leaders/prospective leaders face off in debates pre-election that they do know the basic topic format for the given debate,
that way theyre both on the same page and everything stays pretty well on track without too many directions.


Politics - Lovely Linda - 22-10-2016

What I was saying was she knew the exact questions and was reading the answers.
Someone on OReilly that wrote in mentioned this too. So I'm not the only one who noticed this.

Both of those here are a No, No. The Clinton campaign right now are getting slammed because of this very thing. Donna Brazille to be one.

Here are clips from the dinner LL was referring to

Trumps
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9n7g8rTiaY

Clintons
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kA2m4jrZJeY

the dinner is an annual roast event for the wealthy or well connected of NYC
all the politicians show up

Al Smith (democrat) was a 4 time governor of NY and ran for President twice
losing to Hoover in 1928
ran again but the Roosevelt reign had come

as I mentioned before
I think they both took some tough jabs
there were only a few actual funny jokes from each
and the rest was landing some low blows
any similarity to a friendship here is completely forced

here's Richard Branson's take on both meetings he had with Hillary and Trump:

Richard Branson: Donald Trump 'vowed to spend rest of his life destroying five enemies'



Bitter Donald Trump vowed to spend the rest of his life "destroying" five enemies, Sir Richard Branson has claimed.The Virgin tycoon recalled a "bizarre" encounter he had with the Republican presidential candidate when the pair met for the first time a number of years ago.
In a post on his blog , billionaire Branson revealed how Trump invited him to a one-on-one lunch at his apartment in Manhattan.
The 66-year-old wrote: "Even before the starters arrived he began telling me about how he had asked a number of people for help after his latest bankruptcy and how five of them were unwilling to help.
"He told me he was going to spend the rest of his life destroying these five people.
"He didn’t speak about anything else and I found it very bizarre."
Branson said he was "disturbed" and "baffled" as to why Trump had apparently invited him to lunch solely to tell him this.

He joked: "For a moment, I even wondered if he was going to ask me for financial help. If he had, I would have become the sixth person on his list!"
Branson added that the personal encounter has left him concerned about Trump's bid for the White House , most of all the nominee's "vindictive streak".
He added: "For somebody who is running to be the leader of the free world to be so wrapped up in himself, rather than concerned with global issues, is very worrying."
In contrast, Branson recalled a lunch meeting he shared with Trump's rival, Hillary Clinton , where the pair discussed "education reform, the war on drugs, women’s rights, conflicts around the globe and the death penalty".

Branson said: "She was a good listener as well as an eloquent speaker.
"As she understands well, the President of the United States needs to understand and be engaged with wider world issues, rather than be consumed by petty personal quarrels."

now, Branson is worth more money than Trump....

but I still bet Trump thinks The Clinton's bribed him/paid him to say that.

Trump is a very vengeful person
Branson's story substantiates others
