If you are actually implying that Clinton's foreign policy errors (as you see them) somehow cancel out Trump's foreign policy failings as described in this speech OR somehow disqualify her from being entitled or qualified to point out Trump's weaknesses in this area, imo you could not be more wrong.

I can't see any reason why those things should have any bearing on each other, which leads me to suspect that the only reason for this comment was to use this rather impressive speech (which I suspect you haven't even read/seen/listened to) as an excuse to take a completely irrelevant and unwarranted swing at Clinton for reasons that have nothing whatsoever to do with the content of the speech itselfCriticizing candidates is of course acceptable here. But this comment does not represent actual criticism. Criticism of Clinton's foreign policy would mean outlining the things you disagree with in her foreign policy and explaining what you think is wrong with them. This comment is not criticism. It's just a snide comment, and as such, I don't ( ... )

You actually raise a good point here! If this was ontd, I'd totally expect snide remarks; and I'd be much more likely to chuckle and/or shake my head and scroll on by. The thing is, this community never used to have that kind of tone until its recent resurrection. I hung out here constantly for YEARS before it came back to life, and I'm still not used to all of the changes, tbqh--especially the way the snark and sarcasm have been imported over here and become a regular part of the landscape. I guess I need to keep reminding myself that the comm IS different now, and some things that would have been considered a bit "off" in the past are business as usual now ( ... )

Yeah, it's definitely always had snark. It's just not 100% like regular ONTD.
