      It was much longer than 5 years. Fox News threw shit on her from day 1. And when she played a role in trying to implement single payer healthcare they turned it into a vendetta. More like 20 years.

      She was shady. She was manipulative. I saw it firsthand during the Iowa caucuses of 2016 when she sent out a guide on “how to run a caucus” with a bunch of stuff that was intentionally misleading to favor an establishment candidate.

        You’re saying an establishment candidate sent out ‘how to run a caucus’ with suggestions that favored an establishment candidate?

          Not suggestions, misinformation. Like it lied about how a caucus should be run, lied about what happens in a disagreement, lied about how delegates have to vote. Like someone in our precinct ended up calling the Iowa DNC to confirm that information that Clinton’s campaign provided was wrong.
