    She “was involved” in those things…she didn’t “do” those things. It’s a big difference, and why I say fluffy conjecture. She says the right things (mostly), but that’s my point…it’s just talk. I also said we shouldn’t sell arms to dictators to guy a at a bar once…I could make a long winded argument about how that influenced US policy…but I’d be full of shit.

    My point isn’t she’s a bad person or politician. But we NEED universal healthcare and free college…we NEED curbs on housing costs…we NEED climate change regulations.

    The progressives were supposed to implement those things and they never did.

    So…sure…she stopped a small arms deal and shifted around some pocket change. I’m not real excited by that.

      You could also claim that she ”was involved” in the government that freed a huge Russian arms dealer in exchange for a shitty women’s basketball player that hates her country.
