Hillary Clinton's Kwanzaa Outreach Was UNSUCCESSFUL.

[Segami]

The Democratic candidate changed her Twitter logo for Kwanzaa and promptly set off a firestorm of jokes

Hillary Clinton’s Twitter avatar took on a Kwanzaa theme on Saturday night, making her campaign logo into what appeared to be a kinara, the candle holder Kwanzaa celebrators use. Almost immediately, she received comments accusing her of tone deafness, and it wasn’t long before a hashtag, #NewHillaryLogo, emerged to mock the Democratic candidate’s efforts to get “the black vote.”

Clinton wrote a happy Kwanzaa tweet to accompany her logo change, but she changed the logo back just a few hours later.





Despite the reversal, the #NewHillaryLogo hashtag had already caught fire:

1. Pandering for votes fail.

'I'll become anything you want me to be,...ANYTHING......as long as you elect me as your president!'

[Agschmid]

3. When your post doesn't quite take off as you expected....

Kick it yourself!

[Segami]

9. Nah,...I just expect others like yourself

who have nothing to add but distraction to keep on kicking this post to the moon......thanks for the support!

[Agschmid]

10. I've got lots to add this just isn't the place to share it.

Nothing much really happens here except a nice game of tug of war on a daily basis... You tug real hard every day, but tug of war doesn't really get us anywhere.

13. What's a little pandering if it's for the corporate candidate right?

Remember if your Goldman-Sachs wins, the poverty rate will climb. Corporate profits increase directly with the poverty rates. Either you haven't figured that out or you don't care, which is it?

[Agschmid]

15. On topic as always Rhett.

Sticking to those "issues".

"Your Goldman Sachs"

Lol.

[MissDeeds]

4. Yep

Her desperate pandering is cringe worthy, and it's not winning the hearts and minds of prospective voters.

5. Pander, Pander, Pander... Hillary Is The Queen of Pander... #Hillary Panders!

So Weak and Pitiful... So Pathetic... WilldoANYTHINGFerYerVote.com

25. Outrage over logo fail.

But hey ... any outrage in a storm I guess.

[beam me up scottie]

2. The response on twitter was funny and completely predictable.

I'm not outraged, just amused.

But if AA twitterites are angry let them tweet.

[Segami]

8. Amused is putting it mildly for me...

With such high-octane circle of advisers, pollsters, image-tweakers and focus panel groups surrounding her daily airspace, sometimes, over thinking every political move as to when its a good time to sneeze or cry in public could rear its true nature.....the pandering just keeps on ticking.....with hilarious results!


Thanks for the laughter team Hillary!

12. maybe DWS is managing her Twitter.

It's that tone deaf.

6. K & R This Puppy BIGTIME!!!!

:ROFL:

7. FUCKING HILLARYOUS!

14. She really does not learn from her mistakes.

Not a quality I look for in a leader.

16. Don't you know - she's perfect.

[Aerows]

17. How hard is it

to wake up in the morning and not be a clueless asshole?

Who is managing her campaign?

[bvar22]

32. Its easier to wake up when one is a clueless asshole.

I wouldn't be able to sleep at all if I were carrying her baggage and body count.

[kenfrequed]

18. These can't possibly be real.

No one would put up such silly logo changes like this. This has to be satire or something.

[azurnoir]

19. YOLO ?????

that's so all last week and stuff

[DonCoquixote]

20. I will vote against the GOP, but

here is what 2017 will look like:

Clinton wrote a happy Kwanzaa tweet to accompany her logo change, but she changed the logo back just a few hours later."

Here is the equation:

Clinton will do or say something nice, but take it back hours later, especially when her friends on the elite end of the economic layer want it taken down.

[CorporatistNation]

21. HAAAAAAAAA....... HAAAAAAA KANDR

!

[MissDeeds]

31. It's all part of her evolving

don't you know. One could get whiplash trying to keep up.

[Nonhlanhla]

22. She had one for Christmas too

Should she have ignored Kwanzaa? That would also have led to "outrage."

This whole thread is silly.

[cali]

23. Not that I paticularly care, but did she have one for Hanukkah?

[Nonhlanhla]

24. It seems so

The Christmas and Hannukkah ones are on social media. I'm not 100% sure if they were "official" campaign ones ones.

26. I didn't see it there, but I have no problem with it in any case.

[Nonhlanhla]

28. 9th row, to the right

Personally I think all this playing around with her logo is kind of silly. Keep it simple. But including Kwanzaa was not necessarily pandering. Only about 2 million people at most actually celebrate Kwanzaa, but it has become part of the December festive season, and if she had mentioned Hanukka and Christmas but left out Kwanzaa, she would have gotten flack for that as well.
