Clinton draws 10,000 in red Arizona

With Trump bragging constantly about this size of his crowds, a 10,000 person draw for Hillary Clinton in a traditionally Republican state isn’t too shabby.

Clinton began her remarks with Arizona-specific praise.

She commended former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords for her courage and Arizona State University as a great and diverse school, noting its sizable share of first-generation college attendees.

“You are proof that the American dream is alive and big enough for everyone,” she said.

Clinton also lamented the recent death of former Arizona Gov. Rose Moffords before launching into her stump speech.

Soon after, she said it was time to elect U.S. Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick to the U.S. Senate, and kick out Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

She invoked the name of his Democratic challenger Paul Penzone: “I think it’s time you had a new sheriff in town, don’t you?”

About 10 minutes in, she went after Republican Donald Trump, asking the crowd to “imagine a president who demeans women, mocks the disabled, insults Latinos, African Americans, Muslims, POWs, who pits people against each other, instead of pulling us together. Someone with a very thin skin, who lashes out at anyone who challenges him, who praises adversaries like Vladimir Putin and picks fights with our allies and even insults the Pope.”

Should Trump be elected, Clinton said he would “be out of his depth” and could “heaven forbid, start a real war instead of just a Twitter war.”
