The 2016 presidential campaign put the ‘ugh’ in ugly
WASHINGTON — Good riddance to Campaign 2016, the election that put the “ugh” in ugly.
Big league.
Headed for history books a week from Tuesday, the duel between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump became a battle of “nasty women” and “bad hombres” vs. “deplorables” and voters who are “irredeemable.”
A beauty queen, a Gold Star family, an ex-president and his baggage, the FBI director, even the pope were drawn into the fray.
