They kept their agenda under wraps but we all recall how they purposely (and nastily) kept Hillary off the list of women they intended to honor. They pulled the same garbage at their Women's Conference in Detroit last year

I know that many people turned out last year despite, not because of, the organizers. Sounds as if they are up to their old tricks.
