Zombie time at campaign Hillary: Camille Paglia on Trump’s real strength and Clinton’s fatal sleepwalking

Have you noticed Hillary's speeches, especially when she feigns outrage? This woman seems to have no deep feelings or moral convictions and it is never more in evidence than when she tries to preach a stem-winder of a message, looking often down at her notes to see what she has to say.

"The media covers for Hillary on her email scandal while Trump gallops through the non-stop artillery barrage"


Zombie time at campaign Hillary: Camille Paglia on Trump's real strength and Clinton's fatal sleepwalking

"It’s zombie time at campaign Hillary. Behold the dead men walking! It was with strangely slow, narcotized numbness that the candidate and her phalanx of minions and mouthpieces responded to last week’s punishing report by the State Department’s Inspector General about her email security lapses. Do they truly believe, in the rosy alternate universe of Hillaryland, that they can lie their way out of this? Of course, they’re relying as usual on the increasingly restive mainstream media to do their dirty work for them. If it were a Republican in the crosshairs, Hillary’s shocking refusal to meet with the Inspector General (who interviewed all four of the other living Secretaries of State of the past two decades) would have been the lead item flagged in screaming headlines from coast to coast. Let’s face it—the genuinely innocent do not do pretzel twists like this to cover their asses.
"Meanwhile, former Bill Clinton advisor and pollster Douglas Schoen gave the strongest signal yet in a Wall Street Journal op-ed this week (“Clinton may not be the nominee”) that worried backstage huddles in the Democratic party establishment are reaching fever pitch." . . .
"Trump’s boisterous, uncensored id makes a riveting contrast to Hillary’s plodding, joyless superego. Listening to her leaden attempts to tell rehearsed jokes is collective torture."
 Hillary must have gone to the Floyd R. Turbo school of speechifying: Video here.
