The Political Insider

It’s official. The 2016 presidential race is going to the dogs.

Or at least that’s the case for Democrat Hillary Clinton, who took the opportunity this weekend to literally bark like a dog at a campaign event.

Clinton told the crowd a story about an old political ad in which a dog had been trained to bark any time it heard a lie. She then wondered how great it would be if they could somehow get that same dog to follow Republicans around.

“We need to get that dog and follow them around,” Clinton said. “And every time they say these things like, ‘Oh, you know the Great Recession was started by too much regulation’ – Arf! Arf! Arf! Arf!”

Watch the video clip below:

Let’s just focus in a little more on that epic dog impersonation:

The crowd received Clinton’s joke fairly well, though we suspect that our readers will react in one of two ways – either hearty laughter at watching a Presidential candidate barking like a dog, or frequent, sustained nightmares at what they’ve just seen.

We apologize for the latter.
