(31,170 posts)in a large part, IMO, comes from ignoring all the outlandish statements about herself for all these years.
I used to get a little angry with her about it, because soooo much of it is so easy to refute... but she answered the issue really clearly at one of the town halls recently. She said this stuff has been coming at her for decades, and she just cant stop getting work done to refute it all. So she just keep going out and working to make peoples lives better.
It's comforting to see the changes in peoples faces when you watch her at town halls. People who are really listening finally get it. Which is also why, time after time, she is cleared from all the charges of wrong doing in these manufactured scandals. There is no there, there. And I'm glad to see that people who bought the lies are finally figuring it all out.
