It's not funny because this tactic works. Maybe not in such a short timeline, but it worked on Hillary Clinton. Ask any republican what they think of her and they'll tell you she's a bitch. Ask them how long they've thought of her as such and it'll be over 12 years. Ask them why and the only solid response they'll have is Benghazi and maybe a crack about not satisfying Bill. She has been vilified for mundane things to turn her into a wholly annoying person that actually hurts her public image.

So while I'm with you, it's fun to pick apart this insult to show how boring it is, I can't help but fear it's effectiveness. This is coming from the group that thought Hillary would start a war every month. You know, because all the other wars, all under men, were naturally occurring or something.

Pokemon go to the polls!

I mean Trumpists don't care about facts, they will lap anything up.

But Hillary was hated all over the spectrum.

Yeah, and what was she hated for?
