This is a clip produced by Jimmy Dore a Progressive/Leftist political comedian.

And yes I can accept when Fox news says something true, I have a brain and I can use it to deduce things of my own accord without sticking my fingers in my ears and going lalala.

She has positioned herself as the candidate who would carry on the president’s legacy if elected.
