If the opportunity comes up should Hillary repeat Trump's p***y remarks at the debate?

I'm not trying to be snarky here. But if the right opportunity comes up, should she repeat his comments? I'm thinking only if Trump decides to go on offense and goes really low; then repeat his words verbatim for the viewers.

And I don't think it would be a good idea to do so.

She should address his vulgar remarks as "vulgar remarks" that are symptoms of a vulgar personality. There is certainly no need for her to stoop to that same level of vulgarity.

Same with the people who are pushing that she shouldn't shake his hand. Come on, people. We're better than that. And Hillary Clinton is better than that.

She does not want to stoop to his level.

She should not quote it, because every real-time approval line will hit the bottom and that will be the takeaway "HILLARY CLINTON SAYS 'PUSSY' LIVE ON AIR..."

She probably won't need to bring it up, but all she needs to do is refer to it. "We've discovered this weekend that Donald believes he has a special trick to manipulate women into seeing things his way. Voters, don't give Mr. Trump the chance to manipulate you in any way shape or form."

In public. There is absolutely no need. Everyone has heard the tape.

let me know that you're asking a legit question. I don't know any woman who would ask that or even consider it.
I'm not sure I can explain the reason other than to say that for women that word has an icky factor. Too porn for polite company.

I do not think she should bring it up at all unless backed hard into the corner. He does not need help digging his grave because he is doing so well himself at digging it.

and nothing more. Anyone who doesn't know exactly what Donald TinyHands said is living in a cave.

The GOP would have a field day with that word coming out of HRC's mouth. You don't offer them material to be taken out of context.

She's a leader, she is presidential; he's a buffoon.

That's the way to play it.
