pretty impressive. She gets knocked down, she gets up. She gets knocked down, she gets up.

I think that's what really annoys her detractors--she keeps getting up and won't go away.

And yes, this is someone who has spent her entire professional career fighting for others--the poor, minorities, women and children. Which is why the incessant pile on is so-o-o irritating, in addition to being used to distract, throwing red meat to the Trumpsters, anything but face the far greater heat that's threatening to burn holes through the Big Lie that is Trump and his destructive con game.

As for Hillary Clinton herself? She's certainly more resilient than I am. Than most people, I suspect.
