It was a pre-primary rally at San Jose’s Parkside Hall where California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom introduced Hillary. But Hillary made it very clear that she knows who her opponent is and went right to work on Donald Trump who clinched the GOP nomination today.  She cannot wait to debate him and went straight into the issues and all the plans she has. Hillary went after Trump on both domestic and foreign policy issues.  She was passionate, fierce, informed, and armed to the teeth with facts.  Hillary Clinton is ready for Donald Trump!  (Side note:  Trump said today that he wants to debate Bernie Sanders.  Can’t blame him.  Hillary is gonna eat his lunch.)

Campaigning in southern California gave Hillary an opportunity to drop in and visit the Ellen DeGeneres Show.  The segment aired today.

She talked about the Democratic Party, Donald Trump, and Veep picks.  Ellen is on her short list and gave Hillary the opportunity to make some choices.  Finally, Kate McKinnon came out and did her impressions of both Hillary and Ellen. Lots of fun and laughs.  Hillary had a great time!

Beyoncé for vice president! Hillary Clinton stopped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Wednesday, May 25, and played a game of “Who’d You Rather?: VP Edition” to figure out who should be her running mate.

“We’re going to pick your vice president,” Ellen DeGeneres explained of the game that would swap one person for another until they were left with one winner. “This is helpful,” Clinton, 68, joked.

Hillary rallied voters in Riverside tonight. She is 82 delegate votes away from clearing 2383, and that is going to happen in New Jersey on June 7 before any of the western polls close because she will pick up more delegates in Puerto Rico before the 7th.   But ND, SD, NM, MT and CA – do vote that day anyway!  Please!

Hillary rallied voters in Commerce, California today.  The California primary is June 7.  Everyone here knows I don’t do predictions, but Hillary will pass 2383 in New Jersey before the polls close on that day. It’s the math.

Hillary heard about foster care issues today, so we can expect that she will study problems related to the foster care system and devise plans to address them.

Look for Hillary on Ellen tomorrow in the segment she taped today.

Here are a few things you might want to know going into June.  We are in the homestretch!

Inline image 1

As Hillary Clinton has said, she will fight for every vote and compete in every state, and we were thrilled to split the states on Tuesday, with a win in Kentucky and a loss in Oregon. While we would have loved to win both states, we picked up delegates to add to her insurmountable lead in pledged delegates and popular vote, and there is still no doubt that Hillary Clinton will be the first woman in American history to earn the presidential nomination of a major party.

Meanwhile, with Donald Trump, it’s another week with another deluge of alarming comments.

John Podesta said it best yesterday:

“In this week alone, Donald Trump has jeopardized relations with a close ally before setting foot overseas; talked about building a relationship with a reckless dictator; called two diverse American cities more dangerous than war zones like Iraq; and released a list of suggested Supreme Court nominees that includes no people of color, but does include a judge who upheld a law requiring doctors to use scare tactics to impede reproductive rights and another judge who equated homosexual sex to ’bestiality,’ ’pedophilia’ and ’necrophilia.’ And it’s only Wednesday. At this point, it’s hard to keep up with the myriad reasons Trump should not be president, but the divisive policies and nominees, reckless and uninformed foreign policy positions and offensive views of Americans are just a few. Any one of these things would be troubling. All of them together, in just a few days, is further proof that Donald Trump is a risk we can’t afford.”

In contrast to Trump’s activity this week, Hillary Clinton is spending every day of this campaign meeting with voters who seek real solutions that will work to break down the barriers they face in life.


Volunteers from all 50 states are making calls and having conversations with people in their communities to help get Hillary Clinton elected — and we want you to join us!

There are nine contests left in the primary season, and they need our help with outreach! Help us by phone banking for Hillary (from home!) right here.

Hillary spoke live on CNN this afternoon with Chris Cuomo.

Welcoming Cuomo to her hometown, Park Ridge Illinois, Hillary first addressed the EgyptAir crash, apparently a terrorist attack, and reinforced her three-pronged approach to fighting terrorism.

DSCN5792 DSCN5793

Asked whether things are better or worse than when Obama took office, she cited progress but emphasized that it is important with the immigrant waves, to get European countries on board with security measures that are stronger.

Re: Donald Trump – Hillary said he says harmful things   e.g. barring Muslims. She said his approach is provocative, wrong-headed (e.g. praising the head of North Korea, criticizing our ally, letting other countries have nuclear weapons, pulling out of NATO), and potentially dangerous.

She said we have been effective in killing the head of ISIS and cutting off funding to them, but the entire world is listening to what Trump says.  She said that his statements disqualify him.  The statements are not off the cuff.  It is a pattern.

DSCN5794 DSCN5795

Asked about the Nevada convention incident, Hillary said she was very disturbed by what she saw, but she has confidence that the party will unify based on the intensity in 2008. She said both she and Bernie Sanders are following the same rules.  Hillary said she was closer to Obama’s numbers by this point in 2008, and 40% of her supporters said they would not support Obama.  She said the differences between her and Sanders are minimal compared to their differences with Trump.

DSCN5796 DSCN5797

 

Should she reach out to Sanders?  She said she has done that many times, and he must do his part.  In 2008 she did her part and so did Barack Obama.  She pointed to the Unity NH trip.

She takes Sanders at his word that he will fight against Trump. She said she will not get into naming a VP pick and said Trump will bring them together.

DSCN5798 DSCN5799 DSCN5800

 

She said again that she is not running against Trump but for the issues she is advocating.  Trump can say what he wants but Hillary thinks people want to know what the candidates will do.

Despite the fact that Trump is getting votes, Hillary pointed out that she is getting more votes.  She said she is not worried about what Trump says about her.  She is used to it.  She will go after what he says about other people (e.g. making fun of a disabled person). She does not feel compelled to defend her honor or her husband’s.

DSCN5801 DSCN5802 DSCN5803

 

On the path forward: The party will unify.  There will be discussion.  She will do her part to bring Sanders supporters in and then they will campaign against Trump with a strong compelling case to the American people.

Hillary feels optimistic about the country.  She said the next president must:

1. Provide positive results;

2. Protect America;

3. Unify the country.   Hillary believes she can do all three.

DSCN5804 DSCN5805

What does she think her mom would tell her to do facing Trump in this election? She said her mom taught her always to get back up and dust yourself off when you are facing a bully. Her mom taught her resilience and the power of love and caring. If you are putting yourself in the public arena, everything is increased. Hillary feels she is the recipient of so much from her family and country. She said we are great.  If we work together we can stay great.

It was a good interview. Pivot completed as far as I can see.
