Hillary of Pay to Play. We knew then that it was his proclivity to project his sins onto his opponents but his fans were too blind to see it.

He knew then all about how that game works because he was already in the process of putting it in place for himself. If you listen to him, he gives himself away all the time. Just assume what he accuses his opponents of doing, he is already doing.
