People are supposed to offended now? And by what Hilary said?

I think there is a standard that people apply to Hilary that they don't apply to even the most ridiculous of her opponents. The idea that we aren't supposed to criticize Trump over making fun of a reporter's disability, accusing an entire nationality of being rapist and murderers, claiming that another reporter's questioning him is due to her menstrual cycle and demanding the death penalty for five youths who turned out to be innocent, yet everybody is supposed to pile on Hillary for daring to criticize the words, behavior and attitude of Trump's supporters, is the height of a double standards. One that Donald Trump has benefited from for far to long. It is high time that somebody gave these supporters the dressing down that they deserve.

That's just not the reality of today.

Hillary is feeling the effects of not making any real mistakes this election, so any misstep is highly criticized.

I actually kinda like that she said it this early, a mistake or 2 in September will make October a little easier.

I also really liked her response today.
