YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!

The ink was hardly dry on my last blog when another media source, AOL News, enlightened me with a no doubt well researched political story.

Hillary Clinton , presumed by many to be able to overcome her email problems * and become the leading democratic candidate for President, has per AOL ,"recently joined the long list of people that have been targeted by Donald Trump, and she's finally firing back."

In a preview of an interview with MSNBC to be released on Sunday, Secretary Clinton was asked to give her thoughts on GOP presidential rival Trump.

Again, per AOL "She didn't hold back." 

She said to the interviewer, "You know, he has been stoking prejudice and paranoia (after making a noise of disgust).

He's been really appealing to the worst instincts of human nature. I think it is dangerous, his demagoguery is no longer amusing."

The interviewer then allegedly "stoked the fire" by reminding  Clinton, that Trump had previously called her "shrill", to which Hillary responded, "He's called me a lot of things now that he's running against me"

"Before, he called me a great Senator and a great Secretary of State. That's what a demagogue does. They say whatever they need to say in order to stir up the passions of the people."

In Trump's (questionable) defense, one cannot help but wonder whether or not Trump had experienced yet another epiphany, this time about  Hillary's qualifications as the Democratic candidate. 

This would be as opposed to the one he had that occurred when he revealed to us during the second Republican debate he was now pronouncing Carla Fiorina as  "beautiful."

Regardless, I did not take the time to preview the actual video of the instant interview, but one presumes that her MSNBC interviewer, the Reverend Al Sharpton  (who she referred to as Reverend Al) completely understood and was most empathetic of Clinton's complaint. 

Presumably,  he no doubt was shaking his head in agreement with her perspicacity as the interview progressed.

Like, I said. . . . .



* The piece on the interview also contained this allegation: "2 Hillary emails confirmed to be top secret"
