I DO NOT understand it.

I DO NOT understand why they hate her. Or why they continue to embrace that.

I DO NOT understand why anybody should hate Hillary at all. The reasons that are given are built on nothing but lies and distortions and conscious efforts to smear and trash a woman who’s spent her entire adult life trying to solve big problems and help people in need.

I DO NOT get it. The resentment that appears to be at work here is staggering and rather insane. Unless it’s just that some people are unwigged when someone is willing to stick her neck out and try to champion those who don’t have a champion? WHY do they feel SO threatened by her?

I don’t think I’ll ever understand it.
