61. Often a strength can become a weakness
Tue May 10, 2016, 12:06 PM
May 2016

You state:

"Clinton's success is due to her willingness to trade principals, values and voters for cash from the 1% and war for the defense industry. "



In the G.E. that will be used by Trump as pounding point to lure independents. Not that Trump has any real morals, but those who might be listening might think they have them. Trump is not getting there by accident, he is feeding them the bullshit they want to hear (even if it's just more lies packaged in different way)
