Another Disastrous Week Shows No End In Sight For Clinton Campaign Troubles

A week ago today, Hillary Clinton’s campaign team probably thought there was nowhere to go but up – with sinking polls, underwater favorability, and a steady drip of damaging details about Clinton’s private server scandal dominating the news.

Things were so bad they tried to – yet again – hit the “reset” button with a rushed TV ad buy seeking to soften Clinton’s increasingly negative image.

Like Secretary Clinton’s failed Russia reset, this one didn’t go so well. Here’s what happened this week:

An NBC/WSJ poll released on Monday showed Clinton’s favorability rating at an all time low – down 15 points from just a month ago. MSNBC’s Chuck Todd pointed out that Clinton now has “higher negatives, lower favorable ratings right now than at any point in time did [President] Obama.”



Tuesday brought bad news from New Hampshire, where a WMUR poll showed Clinton leading Bernie Sanders by just 6% in the first-in-the-nation primary state – just one tenth of one percent outside of the poll’s margin of error.

Meanwhile, ethics problems continued to mount for Clinton’s top aide, Huma Abedin, with new charges that she pocketed nearly $10,000 in taxpayer dollars for vacation overpayments and “leveraged her State Department job” to benefit the Clinton Foundation and another Clinton-connected firm.

But it was Tuesday night when the Clinton reset really went off the rails with a breaking report from the Washington Post that contained the three letters no candidate ever wants to see in a headline: F-B-I. Namely, the FBI was very interested in Clinton’s private email server.



As wall-to-wall media coverage focused on the FBI investigation, the Clinton camp attempted to spin by claiming it wasn’t a “criminal” investigation. Fast forward to Thursday, when an FBI spokesperson confirmed to Fox News’ Ed Henry that it is in fact a criminal probe.

And what’s a week for Hillary Clinton without a little friendly fire? Iowa labor union members blasted Clinton for blowing off a forum that all of her fellow Democrats made time for – including Bernie Sanders, who is amassing union support most expected would go to Clinton. Clinton’s campaign cited a “scheduling conflict” which turned out to be taking selfies with Kim Kardashian.

I speak about all the Republican candidates with respect, thank you. Except Trump, that is.

Clue me in . What is wrong with Trump ? As far as I can tell , Trump tells the c*******t Party to go sit down or get knocked down by real Americans . What is wrong with that ? America did that until amnesty international got got into the public offices such as Obama and Kerry . According to the F B I , Amnesty International is a c*******t party . Do you desire to be in a c*******t nation and if so why ?

If everything for Hillary is as bad as you say, why is she whippong the socks off of Bernie Sanders? I read that if Trump was matched up against Hillary, she would win the e******n right out. This doesn't sound like she is slipping down the drain. This old lying Witch has a way of surviving the rope that is about to be put around her corrupt neck. Oil must run through her veins.

Please comment and give me your take. I would love to hear what you got to say! I am on your side! sam

Respect is good when we respect the respectable and the respectful. We agree on Trump. Absent some new information, I will be v****g for Hillary with very little enthusiasm.

Glaucon

If you have to ask, what is wrong with Trump, there is no possibility you would understand my answer. You offer some very questionable statements , some factoids and some pure bulls**t. You seem to want someone who will get real tough with c*******ts. The problem is, c*******m died many years ago and finding a c*******t to attack would be like hunting unicorns and planning to have it for dinner.

That's about the most encouraging thing I've ever seen you say.
