In reply to the discussion: Clinton's opposition to the TPP is insulting [View all]nyabingi
(1,145 posts)Hillary is only against the TPP because polling suggests it is not popular to support. I'm sorry, but you don't spend years and years promoting something only to turn against it at a time of your convenience.
The fact that Hillary flip-flopped on the TPP is the FACT, and the EMOTION of people bashing her for that flip-flop came afterwards. For many people, their emotion is the result of her flip flop. Add to the fact that she thinks most of us are too stupid to hold her accountable for her previous support, and the emotional involvement is amplified tenfold. She continually insults our intelligence and we're not supposed to be angry (i.e., emotional) about it.
By the way, I'm an honest-to-goodness, unashamed Hillary Hater. I think she is simply not a good human being and she's a pathological liar. Her lack of authenticity and charisma shows through because she usually doesn't do very when it comes to how well-liked she is.
