Hillary today talked about her infrastructure bank and alternative energy proposals. But knocking Trump is absolutely necessary; the more often the better. Imagine that, in spite of his obvious unfitness to be president in every way, he is still only 5 or 6 points behind in many national polls. I am ashamed to be an older white male in America, given the level of support from our group for such a pig as Trump.
Hillary is very talented but also highly flawed. She always sees herself under siege, and operates on that basis: secretive and suspicious. Her operational core team consists of the same tired names we've seen for decades.
Losing this year should have been OK, with the 2020 election being the one that was a must-win. Now we have a reprobate running in the GOP slot this election, and we're stuck. I wouldn't vote for Hillary if she was running against a sane alternative. She's not.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
