[meow2u3]

Hillary Clinton took matters into her own hands, quite literally today. The former Secretary of State took to Twitter to lead the press to the Trump water with 20 questions the Republican nominee for president must answer now.

1. I hope the debate moderators read this! eom

[still_one]

5. If they do, when he replies with an incoherent answer, I would be shocked if they followed up on it

[elleng]

2. Good work!

[Funtatlaguy]

3. All great questions

That's why none of them will be asked by our lazy, pathetic, sycophantic press corps.

19. Those were great questions. The press cannot ignore them.

The Trump children cannot possibly take control of the Trump Org if he were to win, and not be in constant contact with him regarding all those major players he is up to his neck in debt with. The Business would have to be placed in a Blind Trust to ensure that Trump didn't have his hands in the day to day operations. Despite all of the Trump children having the title of VP after their names, we all know that Donald Trump is the ENTIRE Organization. The Children are just glorified gophers or assistants. When the press have visited Trump Towers, they all say the same thing; not only is there no evidence of an active political campaign; there is no evidence of an active corporate run business structure of any kind there, for a supposed multi billion dollar construction entity.

Trump Org exists in name only. Trump doesn't build anything anymore; he licenses his Brand Name to outsiders who ARE builders in exchange for a licensing fee and a cut of the profits. He has no control over those projects, otherwise. That information came out in that 2 hour documentary on CNN a few weeks ago. His only other big project recently, of which he controled, (assuming that he controls it) was that golf course in Scotland, and he probably doesn't really own that outright, since the documentary said that after his bankruptcies no one would lend to him, which is why he got into the Branding business in the first place. And because the Branding portion of the business was so profitable with no risk of his own money or assets, he stuck with it. According to the documentary he still owned some vacant land in New York but, he essentially was no longer in the construction business.

4. There is no one in the media strong enough to stand up to Trump and ask any of those

Only Hillary has the guts to do that.

If he does not respond by the debates, Hillary should use any free time to ask these questions.

[Thinkingabout]

6. Trump will say one thing in a sentence and turn around and say something else in the next sentence.

There is a lot going on with Trump business deals, he is all for Trump, he is not a public servant and doubtful he could ever be a public servant.

[SaschaHM]

7. The lack of media attention to this story is shameful...

Meanwhile, they spent a whole damn week on the Clinton Foundation AP story that was a big nothingburger. This is the Bondi story all over again.

[CherokeeDem]

8. These questions answer the rhetoric of why we should not have a business person in the WH....

The conflict of interest is too high and the focus is not on keeping a nation solvent and secure but an individual.

I'm With Her!!

[Farmgirl1961]

9. Great questions...but I do have a question

These are on her twitter feed -- who will pick them up and get them to someone in the media who will bring them forth. Joy Reid? Rachel Maddow? Lawrence O'Donnell?

[randome]

10. I just want to know one thing:

Is there a real Meredith McIver who works for your campaign? I don't mean someone in the world named Meredith McIver. There are plenty of people in the world with the same name as mine.

I mean the 'Meredith McIver' who makes mistake after mistake yet is never seen and whose social media presence was created only hours after questions were raised about her.

This is the single most important question to me. Because I seriously doubt this 'Meredith McIver' is a real person and that Trump made her up just as he did his other aliases.

11. Our Founders were lawyers and patriots

any business ties they had were secondary. With Trump there is no
secondary, it's Trump first and foremost and always.

Way to go, HRC! Set the table, America deserves answers from Trump.

[world wide wally]

12. Sadly, these questions will never be answered (or asked on cable news).

This is nothing compared to when Trump tweets something profound like "nanny nanny boo boo…Dumb"

[LisaM]

13. 14 and 16 are the best

they totally back him into a corner.

[Xipe Totec]

14. Good questions for the moderators!

[renate]

15. this is genius

It really is, IMHO. The answers don't really matter because they'd be bullshite--it's the questions that matter. For whatever reason, most of the media haven't been interested in asking these, so by being incorporated into something that campaign reporters will report, they're getting out there.

Brava!

[lark]

16. Msaterful!

Even sick, she's 10x smarter and more knowledgeable than him.

Go Hillary!

[VulgarPoet]

17. Sweet salted Christ on a cracker, someone call the police.

I think I just witnessed twenty counts of attempted murder here.

HEADS UP! 4:30 EST, CNN is even covering this.

[mshasta]

18. She is doing the journalist job

For 13 years reporters are being too lazy to investigate and ask hard questions,
Finally someone with the brains and wealth of experience is telling them to get back from their comfy conspiracy as and get back to work!


Media please do your job!

[Saviolo]

20. I would love to see

Hillary hold Trump's feet to the fire on a few of these questions in a debate. I'm reminded of one of Jed Bartlett's finest moments in The West Wing, when he attacked Gov. Ritchie about his 10-word answer:

[voteearlyvoteoften]

21. Boom

[niyad]

22. and that is how it is done.

[Bill USA]

23. she has to ask the questions M$M won't or aren't capable of coming up with.

[ffr]

24. ENCORE! Effective means to reach 18-34 y.o. LVs

We need to sway them still. They have not united completely with the democratic platform. 15% say they're voting for Stein. That's a lot of lost votes to a third party candidate. Imagine the supermajority the dems could have if half of those voters united behind the democratic platform!! It would be a super landslide and the downballot candidates would be able to push for progressive values for 2 years and 2 years more if we could get that block to vote again.

We need to stress unity behind a common HRC/Bernie message.

[Akamai]

25. Good! As Hartmann says, "It's the issues, stupid!" And here the issues are crystal clear.

[Scruffy1]

26. I would sure like her to take over the news cycle.

It seems that the whole campaign has devolved into talking about Trump. In my opinion its time for some bold action. Even the "liberal" news sites have daily headlined Trump for months. I'm sick of hearing Trump, Trump , Trump. I'm sure she is capable of it but it seems that her campaign staff decided that playing it safe was the way to go.

[NastyRiffraff]

27. BOOM!

I wish there were someone like Hillary in the media! She's definitely doing the job they SHOULD be doing.

[BlueStreak]

28. Donald, if you become President will you promise no more deals with the Mafia?

[BlueStreak]

29. 21) How many days has it been since you had a REAL press conference

where reporters are free to ask substantive questions and follow up when you try to change the subject?

Oh, I remember, the last one was -- NEVER !!!!

[IrishEyes]

30. It is so nice to see inteligent questions.

I wish that moderators would ask questions like this. I watched all of the many republican debates. I'm looking forward to seeing Trump go up against one highly intelligent, really experienced person. I hope she completely destroys him all three times. The Tim Kaine vs Mike Pence debate should be fun as well.
