I'd like to personally thank the psychologists team Clinton hired.

[DanTex]

These people deserve a Nobel. The deconstructed the Donald, figured out every weakness and insecurity, and exactly how to best exploit each one. Over and over again, he kept stepping in it, and it's because team Clinton laid the traps. They knew exactly what they were doing.

Kudos!

1. When someone is over exposed

by Donald is, it becomes easy to see all his weaknesses. He has no one to blame but himself. The whole world now knows all his weak points.

[COLGATE4]

2. There' s a wonderful saying in Spanish*

which translated (although it loses a little) goes: The Devil knows more because he's old than because he's the Devil. Age and experience about how a real campaign should be run (including OPPO research) will win 10 times out of 10. And Drumpf got to experience the validity of that saying last night!


* El diablo sabe mas por viejo que por diablo

[livetohike]

4. Perfect saying and it sounds better in Spanish. n/t

[Gothmog]

3. Trump is not that difficult to figure out

Trump is a narcissist which explains most of his dumb mistakes

[Fast Walker 52]

5. exactly-- I don't think they needed anyone with great expertise to get Donald

[NewJeffCT]

8. He waltzed through a field of 16 or 17 contenders

on the GOP side. If it was that easy, one of them would have done it.

[groundloop]

10. Yes, that was very curious

You'd have thought some of the better funded career politicians could have more thoroughly exploited his many weaknesses.

On the other hand they couldn't go after tRump on the things which they stood for as well, it would have alienated them to the repub base. They really had to walk a tightrope and none of them could do it.

[VWolf]

13. Correct. The primaries and the general are completely different beasts

with completely different target audiences.

[mdbl]

15. All of them were from the same clown car

The GOP contenders were all so strange and bizarre, Donald was the only one they saw as normal ROFL

[Fast Walker 52]

17. I don't think it was because he did well in the GOP primary debates

it was more that he appealed very deeply to the Republican id-- he figured that one thing out... and his GOP opponents had no way to counter it. And really-- despite doing terribly in the 3 debates, he hasn't lost his base. They are locked in on him. It's a cult.

[Cha]

6. Yes, they do.. a big prize.. so many are giving Hillary props

for setting da bait that snared him.. and we know she had a Team!

[Tanuki]

7. Agreed...and it was brilliant to throw him more chum by calling him a puppet, knowing he was

incapable of ignoring it and would launch a new meme with "No puppet! No puppet! You're the puppet!" that would make him look even more childish and ridiculous.

[AmericanActivist]

9. Me too. nm

[Laser102]

11. Good move on her part. She's always prepared. She will be a great president for our country.

[VWolf]

12. If Sec Clinton puts the same effort into her meetings with foreign adversaries,

she will be a VERY effective president.

And I believe she will.

[world wide wally]

14. Don't forget. Trump has never had anyone talk back to him before Hillary.

Jeb!, Rubio, and Cruz made feeble (at best) attempts, but they had to toe the Republican line and were beyond timid. Hillary just said, "fuck you" in so many words.

[ffr]

16. And if they're carried forward, she'll have the upper hand against all adversarial foreign powers

Our statesman, stateswoman.

[Orrex]

18. Yes indeed! In addition...

I suspect that Trump's camp sort of suspected that it might blow up this way, and the "too prepared" buzzphrase was rolled out in a futile effort to sabotage this inevitable result.

A masterful performance by our next President, that's for sure!
