I think the secretary is right. And that is that the American people are sick and tired of hearing about your damn emails.
The middle class, Anderson (Cooper), let me say something about the media as well. I go around the country, talk to a whole lot of people. Middle class in this country is collapsing. We have 27 million people living in poverty. We have massive wealth and inequality. It's cost us millions of decent jobs. The American people want to know whether we're going to have a democracy as a as a result. Enough of the emails. Let's talk about the real issues facing America.
It was obvious what Sanders was saying here. If there had been revelations about the emails, I would imagine Sanders would think that was fair game. However, there was nothing to talk about concerning emails that are still under investigation; the time should be spent discussing the bleak realities many people are experiencing right now, not on rhetorically dancing around idle speculations.
Of course, in most accounts I saw, everything after "your damn emails" was edited out.
