New Clinton ad shoes her wearing a Hijab. Is she unaware of what wearing that means?

...What do you think it means?



"The blink-and-you'll-miss-it screenshot occurred at the 0:27-0:28 mark of the video and was widely shared out of context to suggest that Hillary Clinton's "new campaign ad" depicted her wearing a hijab as part of her ordinary attire. But it was clear in (the universally absent) context that the footage was captured while Clinton was visiting a location in which her wearing a head covering was expected by custom.

Specifically, the image was taken from coverage of a 2009 visit to Pakistan by Secretary of State Clinton, during which she donned a head covering while visiting the shrine of the Sufi saint Shah Abdul Latif Kazmi and the Badshahi Mosque. Just as historical Catholic practice held until well into the 20th century that women should cover their heads in church, historical Islamic practice typically holds that all mosque visitors should cover their legs below the knee, and that women should cover their heads; failure to do so may be considered extremely disrespectful by practitioners of the religion. The donning of a head covering in such circumstance by a non-Muslim is a diplomatic courtesy, no more an act of "submission" to Islam than the wearing of a yarmulke by a non-Jewish person while visiting temples or attending Jewish religious ceremonies constitutes "submission" to Judaism."

It means what it means, that she is owned by a man.

Apparently Trump has barely spent any money in the swing states, too, and we all know how close the polls are there. Once he starts actually spending, then, well... uh-oh.

Yea

He is utterly wrecking her. Its beyond embarrassing for her and her supporters to see the amount of money she has to spend and can't even stay ahead.

This is a surprising turn of events. As of last week, she was up everywhere. At the same time, this means nothing in the grand scheme of things. The Donald is known to never quit while he's ahead.
