A Hillary supporter told me.

Hence the white noise machines at fundraisers and the three secret speeches she held to Goldman Sachs after she told them to "cut it out" while pointing the finger at everybody else.

All the signs of a True Leader!

2. I couldn't believe it when I heard she got a couple of hundred thousand dollars for a speech at

Verizon and then had the nerve to show up and schmooze with the strikers yesterday. Maybe she could release the transcript of that speech so we might learn about her remarks that reflect solidarity with the workers.

I'm glad she's figured out how to play the game with their rules. Yes, their rules suck...thanks to Citizen's United...but you don't bring a knife to a gun fight.

The President of the USA shouldn't be anybody's gopher.

She is an embarrassment because she is doing it openly, flaunting it.
