In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton’s foundation received donations from foreign governments and agency promoting Keysto [View all]Rex
(65,616 posts)27. Well it was different on DU2 when Dubya was in office. We had a common enemy.
Now we notice things like libertarian think tanks and investment bankers calling the shots. Totally different now then it was. HRC is not to the right of the GOP...you really don't know the Grand Old Party if you really believe that. She is her own flavor of capitalist called a Centrist. Long story short, they like a few principle ideas of Reaganomics and believe it can be melded with social policy. Basically nice neoliberals, if that can be believed.
That lurch to the right is true, but you got a long ways to go to reach the Tea Party. They can't even keep the government running for more than a day.

That's a creative way to rationalize approval ratings which don't validate a preexisting bias.

I think you're getting away with posts meant to do nothing other than to sow hate and division.

Apparently, you couldn't make a cogent argument, so you went for the cheap shot?
