Clinton Rules Out Foreign Trip Before Election

“The Clinton campaign has now all but ruled out the possibility of the Democratic presidential candidate and former secretary of state taking a foreign trip between now and Election Day in November,” ABC News reports.

“In recent months, aides to Clinton have ruminated about the appeal of a foreign trip (they believe she would be well-received and welcomed by countries concerned by a Donald Trump presidency), but ultimately the decision comes down to time and her experience.”

People who care about the opinions of other countries are already voting for Hillary.

She has a chance of running up the score on both tRump and the GOP downballot races. May I remind us not to take this election for granted.

The trip she has been taking in PA and OH is more valuable and she should do a lot like them, calmly, without media looking at her potential "gaffes" as they are focused on Trump.
