Mainstream media loves Trump and doesn’t like Hillary. The reason is not that these journalists find themselves ideologically closer to The Donald than to Clinton. Obviously, they don’t. But as journalists, they love gimmicky campaigns that allow them to publish long, easy, chatty pieces.
Hillary’s campaign is not gimmicky while Donald ‘ s is. She needs to start doing some clownish stuff. Tongue-kiss Bill in public, for instance. Yes, I know, gross, but the presidency of the US is at stake. Or she could cry. People seem to love her when she cries. She could do some “typically womanly” thing like humor the BLM and talk about hearts, ribbons and cookie recipes with them. Or she could say shit like “Being a wife and a mother is the hardest job in the world.” Yes, again, vomit, vomit, vomit, but the presidency is at stake.
When she starts making an ass out of herself in these ways, the press will love her and she’ll get tons of good coverage.

\ Or she could say shit like “Being a wife and a mother is the hardest job in the world.”
And then conservatives would jump on that and claim she can’t be a good President, if she cries in public (I agree that a president can’t afford that) or finds being even only a wife hard. Or bring up the scandal with Bill and Monica, talking how she failed to be a good wife and thus will fail as a President.
Playing on gender stereotypes is a losing strategy for a woman, if she wants to rise so high. There are other ways to be gimmicky w/o presenting oneself as weak. Does Donald present himself as weak with his gimmicks? I haven’t read about him, but guess that not.

Conservatives hate her as it is. Now she needs to get positive, gushy coverage of the kind Trump is getting. I don’t care what brings the coverage as long as it’s there.

All true, but first she has to get past Bernie Sanders in the primaries. FEEL THE BERN.

Yes, the Dems are as much into magical thinking as the Republicans.

Hillary needs to win, and desperately so. I don’t want to image what US foreign policy is like under Trump.
