First Presidential Debate 2020: Hillary Clinton slammed as ‘delusional’ for saying Trump ‘lied so many times’
All eyes are on President Donald Trump and Democratic rival Joe Biden as they gear up for the first presidential debate 2020 in Cleveland on September 29. The audience, at about 70, will be limited compared with previous debates and everyone attending the event at Case Western Reserve University will undergo testing for Covid-19 and follow other health safety protocols.
Ahead of the debate, former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton — who lost the presidential elections in 2016 — spoke on MSNBC and gave her opinion. "Tonight before the first 2020 presidential debate: Hillary Clinton joins @MSNBC’s special coverage to provide a first-hand account of what it’s like to debate President Trump. She will also discuss what she thinks it will take for Joe Biden to come out on top," one tweet read.
In another tweet, MSNBC wrote: "Hillary Clinton on Pres. Trump: "You can only lie so many times. You can only try to avoid responsibility so many times. When, finally, people are going to be looking at each other and saying, 'You know we've seen this before and we're not buying it this time.'" #Debates2020." NBC News journalist Zach Haberman tweeted: "Hillary Clinton just told Rachel Maddow that Trump's 'show is about to be canceled'." Scott Adams tweeted: "Who still thinks Hillary Clinton is waiting to jump into the race? I don’t hear much about that lately."

Soon, she was slammed for dishing out her opinion and many people couldn't believe she was speaking out despite losing last time. "Says the lady who sold uranium to Putin," one tweet read. Another said, "Is she that delusional??" One Twitter user posted, "Does anyone still care what she thinks?"
However, some came in her support. "Damn, watching Hillary Clinton right now and she is STILL as sharp as a tack -- she said Donald Trump's 'series is about to be canceled'." Another posted, "And she could have been our President. A lot of people would have been alive."
