I doubt she is computer savvy enough to post such a thing. I think she has servants - errrr I mean staff to do that.

Its not intended as a boardroom presentation for accountants, it's just an illustration to highlight information in a manner that voters can quickly assimilate the point she wanted to make. Of course, since it's from Hillary, it goes without saying that her critics transformed it.

that fox new uses, for viewers to get their point quickly without being bogged down with accurate information.

"It's a graphic, not an actual diagram" is an amazing statement, and if it's okay with you, I might quote you in my design class tomorrow.

Did you see how everyone keeps saying it doesn't even look like a "real" Venn diagram, but then they all manage to convince thelmselves that it is because... you know, Hillary, and they couldnt write stoopid stuff if it was really just a a graphic. They crack me up... art critics! LOL

Me? "WTF?" is all I got out of it.

I think I was supposed to get "yay! background checks!" from it, and that is apparently all the graphic person understood.
