    Asking about her administration’s stance on the issues isn’t wanting to be “dazzled”. It’s wanting to be informed.

      You’ve got it wrong. It’s not about asking her the questions. It’s expecting her to give flawless answers while Donny can incoherently ramble word salad for 2 minutes to thunderous applause.

      Asking for defunding of genocide is also apparently the “dazzle” that’s too much.

        Yeah good luck asking Trump for that. Reminder: there are 99 million other issues at stake. Get off your imaginary moral pedestal and help.

        That’s Congress.

        The president can’t actually halt funding that Congress has allocated. See Trump’s first impeachment for this very scenario.

      I think they think Donald Trump is the standard. It’s important to remember that he isn’t. That’s an easy comparison, and some roadkill wins that contest. Being better than the worst isn’t enough of a selling point. 2016 proved that. Be better.

        Be better.

        Lol

        2016 proved that

        2016 proved that Trump would be a fucking disaster, and waiting for your perfect candidate will never happen, and probably wouldn’t win with the majority of Americans anyway.
