They are after Joy because of her comments on Sen. Sanders. Demsrule86 Dec 2017 #78

I doubt that is the motivation - they are likely parsing everything said by prominent Democrats karynnj Dec 2017 #84

It is crazy to claim that Republicans would not speak of HRC giving paid speeches to WS karynnj Dec 2017 #95

HRC did not give speeches to "Wall Street." SunSeeker Dec 2017 #120

Would you admit criticizing Hillary for giving paid speeches is sexist? SunSeeker Dec 2017 #122

No, because a MAN likely to be the next President making those same speeches karynnj Dec 2017 #123

Men were never ripped for paid speeches in the past. Funny that. nt SunSeeker Dec 2017 #124

You were replying to the OP, which doesn't mention anything about Sanders (or Clinton). nt SunSeeker Dec 2017 #141

Yardwork did not bring up Clinton. You did. SunSeeker Dec 2017 #143

It is not a smear to say that she gave speeches to WS -- she did! Goldman Sachs is part of WS! karynnj Dec 2017 #147

No, she didn't. Why not say GS instead of WS? Why bring up Hillary AT ALL? SunSeeker Dec 2017 #148

So, Goldman Sachs is not a premier Wall Street Firm? karynnj Dec 2017 #149

Yardwork never brought up Hillary. Your Hillary smear is gratuitous, pointless. SunSeeker Dec 2017 #152
