Robert Reich: Does Hillary Get It? – OpEd

http://www.eurasiareview.com/24072016-robert-reich-does-hillary-get-it-oped/ ^ | July 24, 2016 | Robert Reich, former Secretary of Labor

[Mr. Mojo]

Does Hillary Clinton understand that the biggest divide in American politics is no longer between the right and the left, but between the anti-establishment and the establishment?

Does Robert Reich not understand that if Hillary tried to portray herself as anti-establishment, NO ONE would believe her, and Trump would mock her mercilessly?

[Bullish]

Bill Clinton didn’t have 50% of the vote in either of his elections. Hillary doesn’t have a 3rd party Ross Perot type to help divide the right wing votes.

Sorry Hillary, the math just ain’t gonna’ work for ya’.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

Bobby Reisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssshh seems to get it.

[ConservativeMind]

I was reading Atlas Shrugged when the man was the Labor Secretary, and he directly reminded me of a minor, but key, government official in it.

I despise this man, but he is calling out the obvious, here.

There is absolutely no way for Hillary to distance herself from herself, though.

[pieceofthepuzzle]

What Reich doesn’t understand is that people also want ‘real’, and that just by virtue of the fact that he and the rest of Hillary’s operatives from the left are driven to find ‘the angles’, and the best ways to manipulate voters, rather than having the candidate actually say what she really believes is a huge part of the problem. One wouldn’t need so many political strategists if one actually had a central core that was predicted on principle instead of self.

[pieceofthepuzzle]

predicted = predicated.

[OldNewYork]

Hillary Clinton disavow big money in politics you say? Tell me more.

[spokeshave]

What we have here is a soaring opus from a Gravitationally challenged individual

[Hoosier-Daddy]

She gets it but only from Huma

[BigEdLB]

Reich thinks Hillary comes up a little short.

[litehaus]

AND, along the way,off topic but interesting re Dimwitocrats we get -——Any twosome NEWSOM

California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom plagiarized an attack
on Donald Trump on Friday evening, presenting work by a retired Air Force officer as if it were his own, and signing it with his name.
Newsom later admitted the plagiarism, once caught.

[TomGuy]

His authoritarian (“I’ am your voice”) populism

How is "I am your voice" authoritarian?

Reichhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh is stretching to distinguish the brands of populism Sanders and Trump have.

[erlayman]

Hillary can’t make over herself, that would look even more desperate, but she could have gone down that path for a VP pick, if anyone authentic would have her. It would at least be an acknowledgement she is ready to fight.

[FlingWingFlyer]

She hasn’t “got it” yet but I hope she does before this election is over. POW! To the moon!

[cpdiii]

Reich is right.

[tet68]

Because taking advice from a malignant twisted dwarf
is the right thing to do....

[workerbee]

She needs to move instead toward the anti-establishment – forcefully committing herself to getting big money out of politics, and making the system work for the many rather than a privileged few. She must make clear Donald Trump’s authoritarian populism is a dangerous gambit, and the best way to end crony capitalism and make America work for the many is to strengthen American democracy.

ROFLMAO!!! Hey Reich, you do realize this is HILLARY CLINTON you're supposed to be talking about?!?!

[seowulf]

She needs to move instead toward the anti-establishment – forcefully committing herself to getting big money out of politics

Get money out of politics?

Hillary is in politics for the money.

The best she could do is lie about getting money out of politics. Of course that what little Robby really means.

[Mariner]

"She needs to move instead toward the anti-establishment – forcefully committing herself to getting big money out of politics, and making the system work for the many rather than a privileged few. "

It is impossible for Hillary Clinton to do this credibly.

Impossible.

But it'll be funny watching her try.
