25. But people with 25-word vocabularies -- all hate words and profanity -- will love Trump

all the more.

I want to see Bernie taking on Trump because Bernie will focus on the issues, and Trump's lack of substance will show more.

Hillary talks over people's heads. I know she has a lot of Democratic votes, but she will not do well against Trump. Bernie is the one who does well against Trump.

Hate to break it to you but we aren't seeing many videos of Hillary's speeches on DU for a reason. She has a monotone voice and is not appealing compared to Bernie.

There is a lot of wishful thinking about Hillary on this website. But there is a reason that we don't see many videos posted of Hillary speaking.

She will not do well against Trump in the debates. And her supporters won't understand why. It was the same with Gore and Bush II. Gore is a wonderful man, but he is not a good speaker. It's just a talent. Hillary is maybe more effective on stage than Gore, but still speaking is not her strength.

Trump is full of it, but cocky and makes a good impression on stage.
