People skeeting stuff.

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.

It's important to note that this also applied to Democratic candidates. With the Republicans moving 100 miles to the Right, Democrats didn't think anyone would notice them moving 20 miles to the Right. Clinton and the DNC are just as responsible for the Overton window shift as the Republicans are. If not more so. Had they embraced and supported people like Sanders, who would have absolutely demolished Trump, we wouldn't be in this fucking mess.
ooo! a real zinger from an irrelevant loser? now THAT will solve some problems.
so sick of these stupid 'dunks' and social media circle jerks.
Hillary is just jealous she has to hide and do it slowly for years whereas Trump doesn't give a single fuck and do it the obnoxious way for 2 times more money.
Oh no, better stop being nakedly corrupt Trump or you might get sLaMmEd again

My brother in Christ, there are a thousand other threads about Trump being corrupt full of people lamenting Trump being corrupt.
But this post is like hearing Al Capone chastise Pablo Escobar over organized crime.
I feel like thats an insult to Al Capone, he ran a soup kitchen during the Depression.
What is your point? Lemmy is full of Trump criticism. It's the norm. One thread shitting on Hillary won't change that.
I would think that Hillary having some experience in accepting bribes, would know...
So idk why everyone is doing the pot/kettle thing (with various wordings). She's speaking from experience.
Corruption is probably one thing that Hillary knows about, and she's calling it out. Doesn't mean she's any less guilty of being bribed, not does it mean that this isn't a bribe for Trump, nor does that mean we should be unhappy at Trump and not unhappy at her for them both doing it.
My point here is, why not both?
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.
shut the fuck up Hillary you're the reason he's where he is
I'd leave Hillary alone. She's a relic from a different era. Not really relevant these days.
~~She and her husband~~ The Clinton foundation recieved hundrends of millions from those same gulf countries much more than $400m accounting for inflation
