Has the Hillary campaign ever started a single argument over ISSUES?

[XemaSab]

'Cause what I'm seeing is still a lot of tone policing.

"Oooooh, some of Bernie's supporters in Nevada got rowdy and used bad words; therefore, Hillary is more qualified to be president!"

Meanwhile, Bernie's supporters are angry about the overt bias of the DNC, million-dollar speeches, the collusion between their "charity" and her actions as SoS, fracking, the working poor, WalMart, destabilizing the Middle East and Central America, Henry Fucking Kissinger, trade policies that shaft American workers, "superpredators," and her rogue actions as SoS which undercut Obama.

If Hillary has a problem with Bernie's policies, why not challenge him on those?

Why resort to tone policing?

[onecaliberal]

1. We don't know what her actual policy is.

[elehhhhna]

19. neither does she, until the checks clear

[Baobab]

26. She knows, its globalization. Wages here have to come down a lot or wages elsewhere have to go up

cutting into profits. So they will use fake crises and guest worker programs to beat down US wages.

[onecaliberal]

36. Good point.

[AgerolanAmerican]

34. oh yes we do

and we don't like it ONE BIT

[bobbobbins01]

2. I think she tried to over gun control a few months ago.

But she gave that up because she had to pivot in the states with more gun owners.

[auntpurl]

3. First of all, clarify between the campaign and supporters.

Hillary hasn't said crap about Nevada.

Second of all, why would Hillary challenge Bernie's policies at this point? The race is over. She's won. She hasn't mentioned Bernie in about a month. She's focused on the GE.

6. You don't really want that -- "clarify between the campaign and supporters"

Do you?

4. Maybe, just maybe, arguing with someone that cannot see the forest for the trees, is useless

Bernie has not idea that he would need a Democrat majority in the Senate to get anything done. He has done nothing to help in getting that done. It has all been about Bernie, Bernie, and more Bernie.

[tonyt53]

21. Simply silly if you think you can intimidate me kiddo.

[guillaumeb]

28. Is it for those of us in the "Democrat party"?

Someone obviously miscopied from the script.

[mindwalker_i]

11. A "Democrat" majority

Did they give you your cookie?

[GreatGazoo]

5. If there was a "Hillary 2016" version of the "Magic 8 Ball" it would just say

"Ask again later because I don't like your tone" to every question.

[mindwalker_i]

12. It might alternate with:

"Did Goldman-Sachs approve?"

[elehhhhna]

38. I will look into that.

[Agschmid]

7. Yes.

DU is not the "Hillary Campaign"...

[azmom]

8. From day one it's been racism and sexism with

them.

[XemaSab]

14. The politics of division

It was racist when Obama got a yuuuuuuuuuuge percent of the Black vote in '08, and it's racist when Bernie's getting the white vote in 2016.

[GreatGazoo]

13. Her positions are comlex and shifting therefore they defy encapsulation

This is handicap for her campaign obviously.

For example, $15 per hour minimum wage -- what is Hillary's position in 12 words or less? Can't be done so pick one of these instead:

a) I don't like your tone
b) That's sexist! (doesn't have to fit or make sense)
c) You're helping Trump!
d) I feel sorry for anyone who believes my opponent's answer

[Dem2]

15. The campaign is all about issues.

If you're using a political site where the 85% are constantly attacking the 15% (Hillary supporters), then your perspective is ridiculously skewed.

[procon]

16. This needs major clarification.

Questions asked and then answered by yourself, so what do you really want... just sympathy from well wishers?

Otherwise, to respond, do you really mean, "campaign", as in everyone on on her campaign staff should be start arguments?

Do you mean Hillary should go around arbitrarily starting arguments, and if so, who is she supposed to argue with?

Define "tone policing". I've never seen this term, is it some snark thing that you just made to avoid criticisms?

Look here, Hillary has ads challenging Sanders policies, she criticises them in interviews, and addresses his positions in her meetup speeches. If you aren't even aware of what she is doing, then it would seem that your mishmash criticisms are misplaced and grossly unfair.

[JRLeft]

17. I've never had a policy discussion with one of her supporters.

[Vincardog]

18. In a word "NO" they lose on every issue.

[The Second Stone]

20. Peace and free stuff for everyone is a wish, not a policy

but good try.

[Cheese Sandwich]

22. They want a circus so they the issues get buried.

The last thing Hillary wants to do is debate Bernie Sanders over the TPP and health insurance plans. She can't win.

[nc4bo]

23. They hardly ever do policy or issues. In their defense, how can they?! nt

[Ron Green]

24. Hillary is the plan, always has been.

"Issues" don't matter, it's all about the narrative. The media are fully on board with Trump/Clinton, and will move us toward the "sane" choice just in time.

[HooptieWagon]

27. With her flip-flopping Hillary can argue both sides, and claim she 'won'.

[djean111]

30. I thought Hillary's position on the issues was "fuck you Bernie supporters, I am not

changing a damned thing!"???????
Seriously.

Which makes all the talk about her moving to the left or whatever pointless.

[NCTraveler]

31. You haven't even been paying one bit of attention...

To the campaign. Clinton has been talking about the issues and her plans every single day. She often politely makes distinction between her and Sanders approach. Their campaigns have had media back and forths many times. It happens all the time. You are commenting on a primary you aren't even paying attention to.

[libdem4life]

33. A Parallel Universe, no doubt.

[NCTraveler]

35. No doubt.

These are truly daily occurrences and they are wondering if it has happened.

I don't want to say they are in a parallel universe as the op has some really good posts on a number of topics. I'm simply saying in order for them to hold the thoughts they are in the on they can't be watching the primary at all.

[scscholar]

37. The media refuses to cover issues...

so you have to resort to using what they will cover.
