In reply to the discussion: Would Bernie supporters be so kind as to define "Wall Street" for us? [View all]CoffeeCat
(24,411 posts)Look, we get it. Hillary's million-dollar Wall Street speaking fees have damaged her campaign. So has her refusal to release her transcripts. Poor dear...she can't even bear to show us her own words. And that constant tin cup she's got in her hand--begging for Wall Street dollars as they hold high-dollar fundraisers that fuel her campaign.
Meanwhile, Bernie's campaign is fueled by "We The People."
Her untrustworthy numbers sit at 69 percent and I'm sure that can be attributed, in part, to her Wall Street dalliances.
We get that her campaign is trying to do some damage control as the states that heavily favor Clinton fade in the rear-view mirror and Sanders continues to break fundraising records (including out raising Hillary in February).
However, I NEVER thought I'd see the day when our Democratic party would hit on the note that Wall Street really isn't that bad. Hell, if you have a 401k, you participate in Wall Street! Come on everybody--Wall Street really is Main Street.
It's you and me!
