Hillary Clinton continues to reach out to the ruthlessly unimaginative members of the millennial generation whose support she'll be counting on in 2016. Her campaign, for example, recently put out a list of "DIY Hillary Clinton costumes for Halloween" advising mature trick-or-treaters how to dress up like old photos of Hillary Clinton. It was a very spontaneous and fun thing that they did.
We thought it was a great idea, and decided to put together some Hillary Clinton costume ideas of our own.
Enjoy!
