Hillary Clinton
My heart is in Charlottesville today, and with everyone made to feel unsafe in their country.

I'm posting in the AA forum because this about a public figure mocking racism and bigotry. I get disliking one politician or another. I'm as guilty as the next person.
This tweet is a prime example of someone so blinded by their hate of a candidate. they'd childishly mock the sympathy and compassion that Hillary expressed to minority communities. It shows me how little Manning thinks of minorities and I won't forget it.
I'm not trying to refight the 2016' Primary or attack Manning for releasing government secrets.

Clinton was an adult and made a heartfelt statement to the area and anyone shook by this incident
Who picks on someone at a time they are offering empathy and unity??
Don't forget identity politics are bad thing so I guess it's a subject you don't have to address seriously

(13,417 posts)So I don't want to pile on or become the screaming rage troll over her comments.
I just want to point out that of the two women in this situation, one served a long and honorable career, and the other Did Not.
PFC Manning deserves to live a safe life.
However, she has forfeited any right to denigrate Secretary Clinton.
She does not have any moral authority to judge a person who has exceeded her in every moral and professional facet of their lives.
I'm all about rehabbing felons, but sometimes they need to STFU

(33,390 posts)She's not helping. It's not all about her. Selfish, selfish, selfish woman.

(73,709 posts)Stealing government classified materials and handing them over to our adversaries doesn't earn my admiration.
If she stayed behind bars for the entire 35 years of her sentence, I'd have no qualms about that at all.
