: this translation is correct! Still, I object to it because it does not resonate in political terms!//Trump's message to the US voters is in fact that HRC will repeat whatever Barack Obama has done!

To understand the political meaning of 'more of the same', you have to understand Trump's message. Trump compares Hillary Clinton, the Democrat candidate, and the Democrat President, Barack Obama. His conclusion is that Hillary Clinton does not represent change since she puts forward nothing but what Obama has already implemented.
