Trump takes the mickey out of Hillary

Donald Trump is an unforgiving human being. After Hillary Clinton annunced, thank God, that she would not be running for president for a third time, instead of just keeping quiet and getting on with trying to run the country, Trump couldn't resist a nasty dig at his former rival for the White House. He tweeted - how else - that Hillary would be "sorely missed". Heavy irony. His actual words were "(Crooked) Hillary Clinton confirms she will not run in 2020, rules out a third bid for White House. Aw-shucks does that mean I won't get to run against her again? She will be sorely missed." As Hillary later tweeted back, why was he so obssessed with her? Well, one of the reasons he's obsessed with her is that despite the fact he beat her through the electoral college voting system, she still won three million more of the popular votes than he did. That was and is still bad for his ego. Then of course the campaign itself was so vitriolic, with him and his wild-eyed supporters screaming for her to be sent to jail for misusing her private emails while she was secretary of state, that Trump clearly hates the sight of her and wishes her ill even when she has declared she is longer dreaming of being president. He has had his fun taunting Hillary and will no doubt get on with slamming those who are lining up to take him on from the Democratic Party. Senator Elizabeth Warren has already received two barrels-worth of contempt and with so many Democrats joining the presidential race, he's going to have a field day digging up the dirt on his potential rivals. For the Democrats of course there is so much dirt lying around linked or allegedly linked to Trump that they won't have any problem in answering back.
