    The Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee called for using far-right candidates “as a cudgel to move the more established candidates further to the right.” Clinton’s camp insisted that Trump and other extremists should be “elevated” to “leaders of the pack” and media outlets should be told to “take them seriously.”

    She may not be playing now, but I feel it’s fair to point out that Hillary has played some stupid games - the American people reap the stupid prize.

    Out of everybody out there, Hillary “I got a half a million dollars from Goldman Sachs for spending a few hours giving a speech to some traders” Clinton is maybe not the best person to talk about this.

    Then again, she does have the benefit of hands on experience on this.

    Hillary was targeted by at least as much politically motivated investigations into her affairs as Trump got, and they all ended up going nowhere, whereas Trump got convicted of 37 felonies. But that doesn’t seem to stop MAGAts rushing to post “crooked Hillary” and make suspiciously vaguely worded accusations every time the opportunity arises.

    Notice how they never actually go into detail, because doing so would then require them to show evidence, so it’s only ever “she was bought by the corporations” and “she knows all about corruption”.

                This is about the Libyan war, organized by Clinton, but driven by NATO and mostly the French.

                You’re ignorant not of American history but of world history.

                EDIT: next time you hear someone day that NATO is a defensive organization and has never invaded anyone, you will know that they’re either lying or ignorant.

        Bro do you think any other person giving the exact same speech as Hillary would be paid that kinda money? The banks aren’t paying her for her oratory chops. It’s influence purchasing. Be serious.

          The beginning of the end was when the blue dog Democrats took over the party.

          It died with Paul Wellstone.

          Now it is the party to protect the oligarchs.

        No, getting paid by bankers is ABSOLUTELY a problem. Or did you forget what the bankers leading up to 2008 after they got beneficial legislation passed that let them fuck up the markets?

        Bankers buy politicians to let them fuck up the economy and drain more money from everyone else they can.

            Your definition of propaganda is anything you don’t agree with.

            To the point that you literally think that Clinton isn’t responsible for Libya, and describe it as propaganda.

        The Bernie thing was bad as well as possibly the only fully fact checked story . But here we have people deciding between propaganda shitposts and a bigot sending people to literal death camps as what is worse. The people who eat the shitposts as fact and spread it around are officially worse than both candidates. They are just Russian bots.

      Yeah, that so quaint! 25M. LOL. Trump’s net worth has increased by 4 BILLION since he took office THIS TIME. Fucking 25M over 10 years… “Those are rookie numbers!” No, not rookie numbers, flat out hardly a drop in the bucket. Sooo quaint. I’m sure her corruption is exactly the same as Trump’s! (Can you really type that without busting out laughing?)

        So one could argue Trump has more dignity as he sold himself for more…

        Corruption is corruption no matter if someone sells himself for 100, 100,000 or 100,000,000

          I never said she was a paragon of integrity… but where she was picking up spare change left on the counter, Trump is robbing the register and looting the pension fund all at the same time. They are not the same.

      Trump is bad. It’s not comparable.

      Additionally 90 % of the shit spread about Hillary was from trump himself. And as you can see: he lies.

      A lot.
