Hillary Clinton Literally Makes Little Children Cry

Here’s one chyron you don’t want to see on the local news when you’re struggling in New Hampshire: “Clinton Disappoints Kids.”

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton had an event scheduled with the Boys and Girls Club in Laconia, New Hampshire, but canceled at the last minute. According to a report from local station NH1, the poor tots were crushed that the former Secretary of State never showed up.

“There were tears. They were really looking forward to it,” organizer Traci Tucker said. “There were a bunch of kids who decorated her little bathroom.”

“It was a life lesson, I guess. It’s a bummer of a lesson, especially at this age. But you know, it gave us a little bit of something to talk about” she said.

One father was not so forgiving, calling it “unacceptable…You want to be the President of the United States, it starts with the youth. You couldn’t even live up to a promise that was made or that was told to these kids.”

“When I heard it, I was kind of angry and mad at the same time,” 8-year-old Landon said. “And I kind of felt a little bit sad because I was looking forward to it for all day today.”
