Second democratic debate ties in Wall Street

“We said, ‘Ok, let’s have a more moderate view, but let’s not tilt it. Let’s not get the deck stacked in favor of those who are at the top, ‘” Clinton said. “I believe calling it what it is… radical jihadis”, he said.

“It’s an intersection between stupid and offensive, and I think that’s going to be a big problem as the campaign heads into the general election”, said Sean Spicer, the Republican National Committee’s chief strategist.

Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta told reporters that Clinton’s “integrity was impugned and what she was saying was that she was proud to represent the state of NY, to help rebuild lower Manhattan”.

The next hot topic of the debate was the economy and the shrinking middle class. Clinton stood with her fellow candidates in advocating for higher taxes for the wealthier population. Clinton, Sanders and former Maryland Gov, Martin O’Malley tangled over how to pay for their plans to offer free college education, family leave and prescription drug coverage.

Clinton responded on Saturday night by arguing that her Wall Street plan was “tougher, more effective and more comprehensive” the others.

Clinton was holding a rally in Dallas later Tuesday in which she planned to discuss the health care overhaul under Obama.

Clinton now has the support of unions that represent 9.5 million workers and wrote to the union that she was “deeply honored” to add it to her list of supporters, according to Politico.

The union that has spearheaded the campaign to set a $15 minimum hourly wage for all workers in the United States yesterday threw its weight behind the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton meaning that she now has the support of roughly two thirds of all unionised workers in the country.

O’Malley and Sanders have made Clinton’s Wall Street ties and positions the key pillar of their assault on her. Clinton is known for meticulous preparation.

You can bet ad makers will have a field day with the remarks, using them to show that Clinton will say just about anything to win.

As a NY senator in February 2005, Clinton used much more aggressive language to describe ongoing terrorists threats from “radical Islamic extremists”. “That is why we have troops in Iraq that are helping to train and build back up the Iraqi military, why we have special operators in Syria working with the Kurds and Arabs, so that we can be supportive”, she said. “It was good for the economy and it was a way to rebuke the terrorists who had attacked our country”, she said.

Sanders noted his support of legislation backed by Sen.

Clinton has said she supports 12 weeks of paid family leave, but supports a different way to pay for it, her campaign said. Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough said the moment was “Clinton at her very worst”. “Why do they make millions of dollars of campaign contributions?”
