    Seriously, reporters should not be applauding @HillaryClinton's answers. This is supposed to be a news conference, of sorts.

        the media have rigged it. They pretend to be impartial. They're crooked as Hillary Clinton and think we're as dumb as Donald Trump.

        I didn't call every or any vote illegitimate. What is illegitimate is the idea that journalists aren't in her pocket.

        Just like you're wrong proclaiming applause as an instance of a rigged system.

        it absolutely is. They can't be untrusted to inform the public honestly.

        even if that's correct (im not watching) it's strange that a presser would erupt into applause
