In reply to the discussion: It Really Doesn't Matter if Hillary Clinton Is Dishonest: Article from Washington Post [View all]Kalidurga
(14,177 posts)3. I don't know what that is
It reads like a hit piece. Only on everyone. It's worse on Hillary I think. But, it's also a swipe at Sanders it's kind of saying he doesn't really take to change and adjusting his values for the times or something something. And it's taking a swipe at people in general for being idealists and dreamers, because yes we are dreaming if we expect TPTB to be honest and that goes for politicians too. And something about people being normally selfless is supposed to be bad cuz emotions n chit. We should be going for the cold calculating liars because they evolve depending on what their handlers want or something something.
