There are some of us who do not like Hillary's policies, but she's a little better than Trump.

[JRLeft]

I'm voting for her in the general election, but I won't stop criticizing her when she's wrong. If you support her and remain silent when she's wrong you are complicit.

Bad ideas are bad no matter if he or she has D next to their name.

[MrMickeysMom]

1. "a little better" than a disaster, rather than choosing or writing in a sure winner?

No ... That's not going to work well.

[Renew Deal]

2. Under what scenario is a write in a winner?

[Lil Missy]

3. And let me guess - YOU get to decide what's a bad idea.

I'll alert the media.

[JRLeft]

4. Intervening in Syria, Iraq, and Libya were great ideas.

She advocated for a ground war in October.

[procon]

41. Too simplistic.

The reality is that the US is frequently placed between a rock and a hard place where there is no perfect decision, only a Sophie's Choice decision between that might be bad or even worse. All of the countries you point to involve extremely complex issues from national security to global economics that impact many other governments -- both friend and foe -- and all of it affects our strategic interests.

We only get a glimpse of the superficial events, not the depth or extent of the interplay between all the stakeholders involved. It is irresponsible to manufacture a one-dimensional critique based on incomplete knowledge.

[Armstead]

45. No this is simple

Invading Iraq was totally needless and totally destructive to our interests.

Realizing that was not rocket science.

[arcane1]

5. It's rather normal for people to decide their own opinions.

Though it's true that some people prefer to let others tell them what their opinions are.

Obama told us to hold his feet to the fire and stay on his ass if we don't like what he's doing. I agreed with that.

Once someone is considered to be immune from criticism, anything can happen, and it won't be good.

[JRLeft]

7. Thank you. It seems like some of her supporters do not want her to be criticized ever.

[BillZBubb]

6. Pretty sad when the bar is just a "little better than Trump".

Neither of them should be president.

[JRLeft]

8. Agreed, but there won't be a real choice.

[lagomorph777]

32. Hurrah! "Hillary is slightly less dangerous!"

Sounds like a winning slogan to me.

[Darb]

10. Bunk.

She is light years better than T Rump.

[JRLeft]

12. Not really.

Iraq, Libya, Syria, Palestine, Honduras, etc. Trade, and a shitload of other neoliberal macroeconomics.

[Darb]

15. Gibberish.

Simpleton gibberish. Got any more one word reasons?

[Darb]

16. Ooops, sorry "neoliberal macroeconomics" is

two word simpleton gibberish.

[JRLeft]

42. I doubt you know what it is.

[Darb]

43. Nobody does.

Smart guy.

[Armstead]

48. Then you don't know what it means

Or do and are fringing ignorance

[Darb]

57. I do know, but I don't care.

It is psycho-babble except in poli-sci speak. Poli-babble.

It assumes some type of collusion, when there is done.

[AgingAmerican]

11. Death by an anvil dropping on your head, or death by 1000 cuts

Pick your poison.

[JRLeft]

13. Can I borrow your analogy?

It's brilliant.

[99Forever]

14. "A little better than Trump" is like being...

... a little more fun than a root canal without Novocain.

[KingCharlemagne]

17. Trump has openly declared war on certain segments of the working class. Time for

the working class to answer the call to duty. Hillary can either lead or get the fuck out of the way.

[Tom Rinaldo]

18. Trump is sick. Too mentally unsound to ever allow him to be President. Regardless of his "positions"

I don't need to look further than that, though reasons abound to oppose him.

[Vattel]

19. That is something I haven't liked about the primary debate.

Many HRC supporters appear far too prepared to lap up whatever Clinton and even Brock serve up to them. Ellos levantan huevos.

[auntpurl]

20. Thank you for your vote.

That's all anyone can ask. Hell, that's about the enthusiasm with which I voted for President Obama in 2008. But I did vote for him, and actually he grew on me hugely over the course of his presidency and I like him a lot now. It's possible Hillary may surprise you - she tends to poll better the longer she's in office.

[B Calm]

21. We deserve a better choice than these 2 candidates. They both have terrible unfavorability ratings.

I fully support the candidate who I don't have to pinch my nose to vote for, Bernie Sanders!

[whathehell]

31. Yes, but reality may make us choose between the "lesser of 2 evils"..Please, HRC is Far LESS

"evil" than Trump. The idea of that idiot with the nuclear codes is SERIOUSLY scary.

Whatever you think of Hillary, she's neither crazy or ignnorant, something I do NOT feel confident saying about Trump..

[MineralMan]

22. "A little better?" Damning with faint praise, are we?

[Nye Bevan]

23. I did the same thing with Obama vs McCain and Obama vs Romney.

Nobody will ever agree with one of the candidates on every last issue. The thing to do is to vote for the candidate who has a realistic chance of winning who you agree with the most.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

24. It is the reponsibility of the people to hold public servants accountable in a democracy.

Even presidents. Even Democratic presidents.

[John Poet]

25. She's "a little better" than Trump.

That's it and that's all.

[whathehell]

34. Dont be silly, she's a LOT better

Trump is an ignorant, tempemental doofus...Hillary is neither of those things.

[John Poet]

56. Word is, she IS temper-mental....

and she's a neoconservative,
pals with the Bush war criminals,
and a disciple of Henry Kissinger.

[whathehell]

58. In 20 plus years in the public eye, she hasn't shown it, which says

that's either BS, or she's incredibly disciplined...Something you'll never have to accuse Idiot Trump of being.

[Orsino]

26. More than a little better. n/t

[Beausoir]

27. She is FAR better than Trump. Proud to support her in the GE.

[HooptieWagon]

28. Very little.

Almost the same as Trump. She'll be a disaster.

[whathehell]

36. That's an absurd statement, and I'm a Bernie supporter..

Again, Hillary, whatever her faults, is not CRAZY, nor is she IGNORANT of the job as Trump is.

Can you imagine giving the nuclear codes to TRUMP the Clown?..Please.

[HooptieWagon]

37. Imagine giving the nuclear codes to Clinton the incompetent?

Kerry is still cleaning up the mess she left at State, not to mention the FBI criminal investigation, and the legacy she left of being the only Obama Admin official caught up in a scandal. Just imagine the damage she can do as President? Just as bad as Trump...probably more corrupt and criminal than him though.

[whathehell]

59. LOL...Are you REALLY saying any incompetence on her part is on a level with Trump's?

For your sake, I hope you don't honestly believe that.

[tularetom]

29. Now there's a catchy bumper sticker

Vote for Hillary - she's a little better than Trump!

[CrispyQ]

30. So the dems have sunk down to "a little better than."

This is problem for the Democratic party, not Sanders.

[BootinUp]

33. Your characterization is noted. Lets hope we don't have to revisit it

8 years from now.

[chervilant]

35. "...a little better than Trump."

Is that the new campaign slogan? When can I get it on a bumper sticker?



#BernieOrBUST!!!

[HooptieWagon]

38. Trump isn't facing an impending criminal indictment.

He does start out the GE campaign with that advantage over Clinton.

[chervilant]

44. I agree.

If Hi11ary continues to assert that she's "inevitable," I fully expect to see a Trump presidency.

[Maedhros]

39. A vote for Hillary sends the message that what the Democrats are doing is OK.

Fracking. War. TPP. Warrantless surveillance. Private prisons. Corporate supplication.

Those are NOT OK.

[HooptieWagon]

47. I was against that shit when Republicans did it.

I sure as hell aren't going to vote for a Democratic candidate who supports that shit.

[Maedhros]

50. That's how the Democrats put the screws to us:

point out how horrific the Republicans are and dare us to allow them to win office, then after we vote for the Democrat they continue implementing heinous policy while shrugging their shoulders and saying "it could have been worse."

I don't play that way anymore. Want my vote? Then earn it.

[rock]

40. No, Hillary's about as good as they get

Trump can not be measured on the same scale as her. But you keep trying.

[farleftlib]

46. Hillary is a compromised and very weak candidate

But you keep trying.

[rock]

51. Attaboy Luther!

[HooptieWagon]

49. If a candidate facing indictment is as good as we got...

...then God help us.
Except we do have another option. Nominate a candidate running for President who ISNT under a current FBI criminal investigation, who ISNT corrupt, who ISNT a serial liar, who ISNT a war-mongering neoconservative. Know of any such candidate?

[rock]

53. Hillary is the most accused politician I can think of

Shall we count the number of convictions? --- I have zero, how many did you get? You know our system of justice demands a high standard of evidence (you may need to look that word up). Bernie hasn't been vetted, thus all non-attributes may be big ol' fat attributes, along with many other non-desirables ones. But as he is now irrelevant there is no need to discuss him.

[HooptieWagon]

54. Nixon had no convictions...

...how did that turn out? Sometimes it's the little things that trip up a lifetime criminal...like filing false income taxes, lying about a BJ, or careless handling of classified documents.

[rock]

55. What BJ did Hillary lie about?

You've got me interested now.

[Dem2]

52. Did you giggle

after you posted this?
