After years of capitalizing on Bill Clinton’s polarizing legacy, the Democratic establishment is finally reaping the whirlwind from his policies as Hillary makes a grab for the White House.
Stumping on his wife’s behalf, Bill was trying to sweet-talk attendees into turning out for her in November when angry protestors interrupted him. The protestors represented none other than Black Lives Matter, the controversial activist group that claims it supports civil rights but detractors say opposes police.
Unlike most of the jubilant Hillary supporters at the rally, the protestors remembered Bill’s attempt to reinvent himself as a “tough-on-crime” president, something that led to him supporting and signing into law the 1994 crime bill, which many blame for the massive increase in the country’s prison population within the past 20 years.
The protestors also slammed the former president for signing welfare reform, which they alleged actually increased poverty. While someone like Bernie Sanders might have let such protestors speak their piece, Bill Clinton simply wasn’t having it.
Watch Clinton’s response to the Black Lives Matter protestors on the next page:
Bernie Sanders: Invited to The Vatican by The Pope’s aid, Monsignor Marcelo Sanchez Sorondo, to speak about a Moral Economy. Bernie’s 2014 income $200k Hillary: 2014 income on IRS form 1040 – $27 million. Invited to hedge funds, private fundraisers. Has pacs, superpacs, known corporate shill. Went to Donald Trump’s wedding “as his friend” ($$$$$) #NotQualified for a moral economy, progressive, or liberal
Bernie Sanders: min. wage $15 hr. Hillary: $12 hr. = aim low, fail lower when obstructed by GOP. CA and NY agree with Bernie’s JUDGMENT. No single parent anywhere should get $12 by 2022. Period. The end.
Bernie: universal healthcare for ALL, as a right, not a privilege. Hillary: strengthen Obamacare, which serves some = aim low, fail even lower when obstructed by GOP
Bernie: all public colleges and universities tuition-free, paid for with a tax on wall street speculation. Hillary: no tuition-free higher ed. wants “debt-free tuition” where broke families and teens still need to pay tuition. Barrier to entry = aim low, fail lower when obstructed
Bernie: make for-profit prisons illegal, abolish private prisons, demilitarize police. Hillary: accepted $130,000 in donations from prison lobbyists.
Bernie: bust up the biggest banks. Hillary: make it more expensive for banks to be very big. Everything else, OKAY!
Bernie: resurrect Glass-Steagall, separating commercial / investment banking. Hillary doesn’t think it’s necessary to go that far. After 70 years protecting Americans, Bill Clinton joined Republicans in repealing Glass-Steagall, then the 08′ recession and bank bailouts. Instead, Hillary wants to regulate shadow banking (offshore ‘shell accounts’ for much less impactful tax evaders) but no changes for the most impactful, recession-causing, market-crashing Citi, JPmorgan et. (punish small frys with offshore accounts but not banks. tax payers will bail them out!) aka “socialize the risk, privatize the profits” = aim low, fail lower when obstructed. Thanks Clinton’s!
Bernie: tax speculative trading on Wall Street. Hillary doesn’t think that’s necessary either. “knock it off you guys” handled it.
Bernie: credit rating agencies Moody’s, S&P, Fitch to be non-profit so they can’t lie with bogus ratings to win over Wall Street clients, like they did in the 07/08′ mortgage crisis. Hillary: GIVES paid speeches TO wall street and private equity firms for fundraising. $600,000 from Goldman Sachs in one year.
Bernie: Expand Social Security by raising the cap on income subject to the Social Security payroll tax. Hillary: nothing
Bernie: allow states to legalize marijuana and remove marijuana as a federally classified drug to help those affected most (minorities and ALL taxpayers paying for prisons). Hillary: put marijuana on a lower drug enforcement classification but doesn’t want it legalized = keep imprisoning blacks disproportionately. aim low, fail lower when obstructed
Bernie: progressive for 50 years. Hillary: “progressive” for 8 months (and it shows…)
And then the coward tries to back step out of it.
Matt you do know that Bernie is a communist right? In 1983 he founded the communist society of America, then in 1990 he founded the socialist party of America both with heavy communist ties.
NO MORE CLINTONS IN THE WHITE HOUSE….AMERICA WANTS TRUMP…..Make America Great Again.
Oh Willie
No one listens to you anymore.
Way to go Clinton, he always has a way with words. This time proud of him for telling it like it is.
Hillary: Democrat Presidential Nominee, good chance of winning the Presidency.
Sanders: irrelevant
And they won’t. It’s all about them even though we went through a revolution to free them and this is how they act. Maybe we shouldn’t have fought a revolution for them.
TED CRUZ AND BABY MARCO RUBIO AND OBAMA VOTE FOR TRUMP
