Hilary sold the American people out repeatedly. As part of the Clinton team in the 1990’s, LGBT people (I am trans) were sold down the river with DOMA and DADT. I spent 25 years of my adult life in the closet. The Clintons assumed political power about the time that started . . . and they cravenly caved to social conservatives rather than lead on an issue where there was clearly moral traction.
NAFTA sold the American worker down the river. The completely unjustfied repeal of Glass-Stegall sold the economy to useless, gambling wastrel children who played our economy like a rigged poker game.
“Superpredators” sold a generation of young men of color to the prison for profit system. And of course Clinton screwed the Democratic Party with his philandering and turned Congress over to the Bush cabal. Where, almost immediately Hillary performed her single significant act of political “leadership” and sold the American people the Iraq War, which killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, thousands of Americans, and cost us trillions we are still paying back.
Hillary didn’t come to the table on gay rights until 2013. The Roberts SCOTUS finally gave up trying to stop gay marriage only shortly thereafter. She arrogantly shouted down $15/hour wages until it was time to jump in for the photo finish in NYC. She has repeatedly insisted single payer is impossible, though it works fine in most civilized nations. She is simply incapable of leading. Ever. She is as far behind America on most issues, as the GOP. Don’t dare lecture me about that . . . because I am 100% right. She will not put her foot forward on ANYTHING until it is so damned obvious that even GOPers are giving up on it.
In the meantime, her accomplishments as SOS included promoting fracking around the world. And she’s somehow made $25mil in a career in ‘public service.’
I don’t know what Donald Trump would do as POTUS. I know that Hillary would sell me out, over and over again. Until there is nothing left.
I’m sticking with Bernie until the end. Because in fact in the next several contests he is ALREADY dominating in the polls.
In the meantime, while he is drawing tens of thousands to rallies, she and her husband huddle in tiny gymnasiums, piling the dozens of supporters they can befuddle or outright pay to show up against the wall, to look like a “crowd.” Or, cravenly photoshopping themselves into one. NOBODY is actually with her. You’re just terrified of Trump.
I don’t know why. I am far more afraid of the traitor I know will sell me out, than the bumbling idiot who won’t ever actually accomplish anything at all.
