Hillary Clinton's Team Thinks She's Just Like Your Abuela, Twitter Disagrees

When pandering goes wrong.

Actually this is just awful all around. Why is her site a buzzfeed clone?

Seriously, this is just a nasty-tasting crossroads of so many bad ideas. Gotta reach the hispanic demographic, have to make it youth-friendly, need to skirt the GOP narrative that Clinton is too old...

It's political campaigning at its most cynical and hollow.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Took it just a smidge too far with the pandering. Memes and hashtags will create themselves, people on Twitter will do that. When you force it and it's as blantant as this, you'll get a backfire.

Every time I hear a Democrat try to pander to Hispanics, I inevitably end up rolling my eyes. Hell, the only thing this does is remind me of all the bad attempts Democrats have made to gain the Hispanic boat. The greatest of all carrots that they wave in front of Hispanics, immigration reform, is something they've repeatedly shown to only care about as a bullet point to get elected and are more than happy to throw it under the bus if it'd require a bipartisan effort to pass it; gotta get that cred, and we certainly can't share it. Or stick other things in the legislation so as to paint the other party as evil when they'd otherwise back it.

Is this some kind of joke? You think the only thing holding back immigration reform is because Dems don't want to give up credit for it? Clearly you've never heard of the Republican base. The same base that primaries their own if they dare cross any lines.

You think it's some coincidence Trump is getting anywhere from 30-40 of the vote in the primary? We know where he stands on the issue and Rubio is getting blasted for being soft on the issue.

Wow, that's bad. I'm trying to wrap my head around what her campaign was thinking. You can't force memes about yourself; doing so will pretty much always backfire.

Even then, how could someone look at that and say, "let's show this to people and put our names on it!" It's bordering on parody.

i'm honestly sort of baffled as to why its gotten a strong response. i think its kind of been taken away as another one of those conservative anti-Hillary things now, though.

its the new "HillaryForPrison"

Well, they previously tried adopting a meme to try to connect to people and that didn't work either

I'm still surprised that it's an official shirt.

I'm guessing she didn't ask a single Hispanic person if this was a good idea and instead relied on the word of an out of touch viral marketing agency telling her this was hip and cool. Hispandering hits the nail on the head.
 
Saw about this earlier. She's doubling down on the stupid that lost her the nom last time. Gonna be great when Bernie gets the nom.
