Clinton campaign calls Trump a schoolyard bully- DON'T DO THAT! TRUMP & SUPPORTERS LIKE THAT!

.... Being sophisticated and adult, Clinton campaigners don't realize to a little chicken-shit like Trump - he doesn't MIND being called a bully... that makes him feel good. IT says his 'playing the roll' as he, a scared little eight or nine year old child, sees it of a 'big and confident' man, is working. He is acting the way his childish mind thinks a confident man is supposed to act. Calling him a bully just makes him smirk to himself and think: "Hey, it's working."

It's all part of Punk Talk.

Better to say, with a laugh: "Mr. Trump, obviously needs frequent confidence boosts by using childish taunts and attempted insults. He's a little old to be talking like a kid on the playground. That's not how an adult man talks."

Hillary Clinton’s campaign on Wednesday blasted Donald Trump for his attacks on the former secretary of State, saying they have “no basis in reality.”

In an earlier speech in Philadelphia on Wednesday, Trump had called Clinton “unstable and trigger-happy” while critiquing her foreign policy. A Clinton spokeswoman accused Trump of projecting his own “vulnerabilities” onto his Democratic opponent.

“Like a schoolyard bully who can’t rely on facts or issues, Trump has only one way of responding to legitimate criticism of his own vulnerabilities: ‘I know you are, but what am I?’ ” Jennifer Palmieri said in a statement.

She added that when Clinton has given detailed, evidence-based criticisms of Trump, he has responded by resorting to false “taunts and insults.”
