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

Mon Dec 4, 2017, 06:45 PM

He claimed Bernie was linked to Putin -- and that is completely weird! I did not mention her speeches in that post, but in later posts when others claimed he was wrong to criticise her on the speeches. The ONLY mention of Clinton was to point how how bad the accusations were on Crist - pointing out that he/she likely has no use for people on the right who had a Clinton/Huma whisper campaign. That, in fact, is what happened to Crist

The point is that she/he brought up Bernie in a negative way -- because of 2016.
