What does it say re Trump that a sitting senator of his own Party has to clarify she mis-spoke when she called him a role-model for kidshttps://twitter.com/KellyAyotte?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor
I misspoke tonight. While I would hope all of our children would aspire to be president, neither Donald Trump nor Hillary Clinton have set a good example and I wouldnt hold up either of them as role models for my kids, Ayotte said in a statement less than three hours after the debate ended.

Not the brightest crayon in the box.

(1,214 posts)2. I agree with her regarding Trump... BUT
If Hillary Clinton isn't a role model, who the hell is?

(2,029 posts)3. She's dancing as fast as she can.
Her whole campaign is based on mutually exclusive premises.
To her base she is a loyal rEpublican.
To the rest of us she is an aisle-crossing-moderate-voice-of-reason.
To her base she is supporting the rEpublican nominee.
To the rest of us she has "problems" with "some" of his positions.
It's way too close for comfort...I just hope we manage to send her pandering ass back to whatever deplorable enclave she rose from.

(35,699 posts)6. Okay I think she just lost any chance of winning. That is pathetic.
Nice try with the deflection by dragging in Hillary Clinton but still a major fail.
