It has now been 271 days since Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton held a press conference. #HidingHillary is a campaign strategy to prevent Clinton from making public gaffes. By avoiding unscripted questions and public appearances that are not carefully controlled by the campaign, the tactic is designed to allow Clinton’s opponent, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, to hand her the presidency through his own self-inflicted wounds. #HidingHillary might minimize the risk of mistakes for Clinton, but it bolsters Trump’s ability to set the narrative. Under the leadership of Kellyanne Conway and Steve Bannon, Trump’s campaign is taking full advantage of #HidingHillary, focusing on Clinton’s many scandals and more recently on Trump’s immigration policy in an attempt to redirect the political conversation. Recent national polling shows Trump closing the gap or even taking the lead. In states like Michigan, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, and Maine – states Hillary must win in order to capture the White House – Trump is taking the lead as well. For the Clinton campaign, another possible downside of the #HidingHillary strategy is that if she reemerges she’ll likely have to answer for all that hiding. If she takes unscripted questions, she’ll likely be asked about the Clinton Foundation, emails, her health, and other alleged scandals which will force those topics back to the top of the public discussion. In the wake of public scrutiny, Clinton has added two appearances in Hampton, Illinois, and Cleveland, Ohio both on September 5th to her public schedule.

If Trump could stay of Tweeter she would be down by 10 points even with her hiding. No one can like this POS when she gets in front of people. She the prototypical nag from hell! If we allow her to become president we desire the consequences that will come harshly upon us and our children!
I simply cannot understand how hildebesst can be considered a viable candidate by anyone looking at her objectively. And yet, here we are.
And yet, here we are. Crazy isn't it!
