#HillarySoQualified Hashtag Backfires on Twitter After Getting Hijacked by Clinton Critics
Things went south fast for the pro-Clinton hashtag.
-- The hashtag #HillarySoQualified trended today on Twitter -- but not in the way it was originally intended to.
On Wednesday, after Bernie Sanders listed his reasons why Hillary Clinton was not qualified to be president, some of her supporters took to Twitter to defend her using the hashtag #HillarySoQualified
Many of the tweets were like the one above, reiterating the points Sanders made Wednesday, as well as criticizing Clinton for her 2002 vote in favor of the Iraq War, the speeches she has given to Wall Street, and her campaign contributions from wealthy donors.
Definitely not the way the hashtag was intended. But by mid-afternoon today, #HillarySoQualified was still trending.
