Trump Mocks Hillary: She’s a ‘Marshmallow’
‘Did you ever see anybody so nice to the president?’
(Politico) – Donald Trump on Wednesday roasted Hillary Clinton for aligning so closely to President Barack Obama, mocking the former secretary of state and likening her to a marshmallow.
In his first campaign event since his dominant victory in the Nevada caucuses Tuesday night, Trump said Clinton’s rival Bernie Sanders is done and derided Clinton.
“Boy, did you ever see anybody so nice to the president, though?” Trump asked. “‘Oh, the president is wonderful,’ she says. ‘Oh, the president, he’s great.’ Whatever he wants to do she says, ‘Oh, that’s wonderful.’ Whatever he wants.”
Clinton in recent weeks has increasingly compared herself to Obama — so much so that Sanders has accused her of embracing the president to pander to African-Americans, a key voting bloc in South Carolina’s upcoming primary and a demographic she crushed Sanders in during the Nevada caucuses.
“Boy, oh boy. She’s become like a marshmallow. Everything he does, ‘Oh it’s wonderful.’ Whatever he wants to do, ‘It’s wonderful,’” Trump continued, echoing Sanders’ critical comments on Clinton.
Trump said the former the secretary of state appears poised to win the Democratic nomination — and Democratic protection despite the scandal over her exclusive use of personal email while at State. “So many people, for doing much less than she did, are in prison and just, you know, devastated,” Trump said. “Man, I tell you, her life cannot be so easy. What she’s done is so wrong and it’s so unfair, and it looks like she’ll be the nominee, and it looks like nothing will happen. But it’ll be something that’ll be discussed, I promise. It’ll be discussed often, often, often.”
As for Sanders, Trump added, not only is his campaign finished, but the billionaire brings bigger crowds. “We have tremendous crowds. We have by far the biggest crowds — far, far bigger than Bernie,” Trump said, addressing students at Regent University before a Q-and-A session during a presidential forum. “And Bernie’s heading down now, I think. Bernie looks like he’s over.”
