I like it when Democrats talk about the civil society and dangers of executive power. LOL.

This was not a strong speech at all

confirms my belief that she's going to get rolled in the debates and Trump will be president for 4 years

Her first job out of college was at McKinsey Consulting in 2003 after she got her Masters. The figure I found was that she made $120,000 annual--I don't know how accurate it is, but it's in the same ballpark as most starting McKinsey consultants (and at the Big Three in general, for that matter). You could argue about consulting salaries being pointlessly high, but that's it's own discussion in and of itself.

She started at NBC in 2011 and the $600k salary was reported after she was there for 3 years. I don't know how that reads as "0 experience" to you.

She's had a loot more practice at debates than she has at giving speeches. That's like the one part I think she can probably handle decently. I'm not sure if there's actually any politician alive who has had to have as many debates as her.

Trump explicitly argued that all the problems he listed were "Hillary's legacy". It was far removed from reality.

Davenport, Iowa (CNN) — Donald Trump, after hearing speeches at the Democratic convention this week, said Thursday he wanted to “hit a number of those speakers so hard, their heads would spin.”

“They’d never recover,” he said.



The Republican nominee zoomed in on one speaker especially, though he didn’t mention his name.

“I was going to hit one guy in particular, a very little guy,” Trump said to laughs at a campaign rally in Davenport, Iowa. “I was going to hit this guy so hard his head would spin, he wouldn’t know what the hell happened.”

What's she going to do when Trump presses her on emails/saudi donations/DNC leaks etc? She's gotten an easy ride on some of these topics by avoiding press conferences.

Moderators are going to be in full on Hillary protection mode. More than Candy Crowley vs. Romney. It's going to be impressive.

In the industry.

Anyway, this is going poorly for Hillary. If this doesn't give her a noticable bump she's hosed.

Well roughly half of the voters right now want Trump, so there's plenty of people to ask S:
