Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton had her Twitter and text followers LOL’ing at her Republican debate commentary Wednesday night.

Mrs. Clinton was texting her debate reactions in real time to her followers. 

“Over here getting texts from my girl Hillary. She’s LOLing about this debate,” tweeted @not_excited.



Mrs. Clinton sent several texts throughout the debate. 

“Seems to me: 10 new candidates. 0 new ideas. -H”

“For a surgeon, Ben Carson has a pretty poor diagnosis. We need to build on the process we’ve made on health care. -H”

“The hardest part about college shouldn’t be paying for it. We need real plans to make college affordable & available for everyone. -H”

Responses signed with an “H” are supposed to be from Mrs. Clinton herself.

“@HillaryClinton has made better points through text messages than all these people on TV!” @riichardburke tweeted, along with a screenshot of more of her messages.

Mrs. Clinton slammed Republican presidential hopefuls for not mentioning the wage gap or taking seriously enough the discrimination faced by the lesbian, gay and bisexual community.

“Still haven’t heard a single idea to close the wage gap & make sure women are paid equally,” and “Discrimination against the LGBT community is not a myth. It’s a reality for too many Americans and it’s wrong,” she texted supporters.

Mrs. Clinton and her campaign regularly updates supporters by text message through a campaign they call “Texts from Hillary.” To receive messages, text “HRCGO” to 24247.
