Hillary and Donald will get top secret intelligence briefings next week for the first time. God I don't like the thought of Trump having classified information about Russia and cyberattacks. |
Uncle Tim did great this morning in that interview. He was FIRM and was not having it when they tried to flip the script on him. He was like, "I SAID, WHAT I SAID."
TBH, if you look back at some of his stuff, this isn't out of the norm type of stuff for him. There is a reason he has never loss a political race yet. He may be dorky, but when it's show time, he's on. He reminds me of character, Elsbeth Tascioni, from
The Good Wife. She was so weird, quirky, and funny, but bitch knew how to SLAY in the courtroom.

Being a charismatic speaker does not make you presidential. It's how you govern and handle a multitude of dire situations that determine if you're presidential or not. Hillary knows that about herself and has said that throughout the campaign, for those who paid attention at least. She admitted to not being a natural politician like her husband and Obama. Their charisma, charm, and presentation styles are what makes them such great speech givers.
Where she excels at is public service and as she said last evening, "The truth is, through all these years of public service, the “service” part has always come easier to me than the “public” part." Hillary is someone who likes to work and she's a policy wonk. She's a great speech giver actually, but alongside the likes of Obama and Bill, who are arguably some of the bests to ever do it, she will always look weak. That's for any politician though.
I'll just stay away from this till next week, hopefully clinton's ahead.
