She is going after Trump's racism and racist ties, naming names and taking no prisoners.
Sad that Trump brought the campaign to a level where Hillary was forced to give this speech.

I watched. It was a powerful speech. I teared up as she got deep into the conspiracy theories of the alt right.

I think her take down of Trump and his fellow travelers (alt-right, Breitbart) was SPOT ON and needed.
It was a great speech... the very first great speech I've seen her give.
Sending her campaign more money tomorrow!

(43,182 posts)It was amazingly efficient and effective--just a rapid fire takedown of solid, documentable facts. Her husband was famous for doing that. Looks like she's just as good.

Defend it's people against all threats, domestic and abroad.
Hillary unites. Trump divides.

I watched, she did great!

(5,810 posts)Trump threw down the gauntlet last night with his horrendous speech accusing Hillary of being a bigot. As Trump is soooo fond of saying, "We had no choice." She had to hit back and hit hard. A light tap wouldn't do it. She had to lay it out, chapter and verse. It was an amazing speech and it HAD to be said. Bravo, Hillary! Bring it on!!
