(3,343 posts)and honestly if you think she wouldn't you're delusional.
She's wildly corrupt and dishonest and has surrounded herself with lobbyists, who have also been funding her campaign.
She and her husband have helped some truly awful people, for the benefit of getting themselves rich.
There's ample evidence of all of this, which pretty much the entire country knows - aside from - somehow - Clintonites.
As for what the majority of people think, yeah it doesn't make it right, but if it doesn't give you pause, or make you want to at least check and see if you are the wrong one, then what can I say?
Did you know that she promised to produce a list of all of the "Foundation" donors - broke that promise at the time and to this day hasn't?

Did you know that the Foundation deliberately hid donors by funnelling them through a canadian charity owned by Frank Giustra.

Do you know that Bill publicly praised an oppressive dictator and promoted his "bid to head an international elections monitoring group, undercutting American foreign policy" - all to help the same Frank Giustra get a uranium contract?

Did you know that Clinton said her "top priority" at State was to sign off on a deal between Boeing and Saudi Arabia - who combined donated 25M to the "foundation" - Being also paid Bill 250K for one speech. She of course signed off that deal.. even though State was warning that Saudi Arabia was shitting on it's own citizens, holding mass public executions and horribly oppressing women? And Clinton's "top priority" was a 29 Billion dollar weapons deal. Not helping the women of Saudi Arabia. Selling weapons.
Did you know that both Saudi Arabia and Boeing share the same lobbying form - the one owned by her campaign chairman?
And that's the tip of the iceberg.
If you think someone that behaves like that - and worse - won't damage America you're ... wrong.
And hey, none of that ^^^ is progressive or liberal behaviour.
If that was a Republican you'd probably be signing a petition to have them tired for war profiteering, corruption and misleading the American public.
