Press Mostly Accepts Hillary Clinton's Bogus Speech Transcript 'Challenge' As Legitimate
Hillary Clinton is still sticking to her "I'll show you mine if you show me yours" strategy as the reason she won't release transcripts of her paid speeches to big banks and Wall Street firms.
"Clinton is also reiterating her pledge to release transcripts of paid speeches to Wall Street banks only if every other presidential candidate does the same." What no one seems to have noticed is that in responding to her "challenge," declared socialist Bernie Sanders, her lone Democratic Party opponent, explained why it is so phony not just for him, but for the other remaining serious candidates of both parties.
Sanders Accepts Clintons Challenge on Wall Street Speeches
U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders campaign on Friday urged Hillary Clinton to keep her word and release the transcripts of speeches she gave to Wall Street firms when everybody else does.
Sen. Sanders accepts Clintons challenge. He will release all of the transcripts of all of his Wall Street speeches. Thats easy. The fact is, there werent any. Bernie gave no speeches to Wall Street firms. He wasnt paid anything while Secretary Clinton made millions, including $675,000 for three paid speeches to Goldman Sachs, said Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs.
So now we hope Secretary Clinton keeps her word and releases the transcripts of her speeches. We hope she agrees that the American people deserve to know what she told Wall Street behind closed doors, Briggs added.
Sanders, point about U.S. law prohibiting paid speeches if you are a sitting U.S. senator means that, in his words, "there ain't none" for Marco Rubio since he became a senator on January 3, 2011, and "there ain't none" for Ted Cruz since January 9, 2013, when his Senate term began. All of Mrs. Clinton's controversial speeches occurred after she left office as Secretary of State on February 1, 2013.

And so the three Senators could not have given speeches to WS for money which only leaves Trump. According to the article, Trump hasn't given a speech for 12 years and it was to a real estate group.
So there AREN'T any more speeches to show!!
It's HER turn (as she loves to say)!!
