Unlike Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton Lacks A Simple, Clear Economic Message
NPR ^ | May 7, 2016 | Mara Liasson

Hillary Cinton isn't over the finish line yet, but as she continues to battle Bernie Sanders she's also turning her attention to a general election matchup with Donald Trump.

A lot of Democrats say that in order to beat Trump, she needs to be developing a clearer message on the economy.

That's not Donald Trump's problem.

Not only does he have a simple, clear message — he often says so himself.

"Our theme is very simple," Trump reminded voters last week after winning the Indiana primary. "Make America great again. We will make America great again. We will start winning again."

Hillary does have a message: Let turn the US into a socialist country and "we'll take things away from you for the common good". She said so herself. Trump needs to start using that.

Hitlery’s clear economic message:

“We’re going to put a lot of coal miners out of work.”

She does. Close down coal mines and put those people out of work; bring in “renewable clean energy” etc etc etc. And she had the audacity to stand in WVA town and tell those coal miners that. Unbelievable. He green energy buddies would be reaping millions of taxpayers money.

Hillary wants to be President but she can’t tell you why she wants to be President.

Apart from the novelty of course, of being the first black woman President.

What else does she offer? Even Democrats aren’t that enthusiastic about her.

She’s not Obama.

Confisation/redistribution.

“We’re going to take a few things from you.” Hillary Clinton. Nothing has changed.

Hillary has a very clear economic message: F off and die already, peasants.

Forgot "Latina LGBTQ," otherwise you are quite correct.

The only thing missing is "Native American." That, of course, would be Ms. Warren.

She did promise the miners a $30billion welfare subsidy. So apparently the economic plan is to destroy their livelihoods and subsequently convert them into state dependents.

I dont understand why any leader would shut down the coal mines. Even though our ships are not coal powered anymore, it is a strategic resource. We need to have an industry capable of extracting it quickly. They are sitting on hundreds of billions of dollars worth of coal.

Make that the first black latina LGBTQ Jewish woman president.

"Hillary Clinton also dug up Jewish roots in her family tree, etc."...... (by a long-ago second marriage of her grandmother).

(source...CBS News/AP - 8/6/99)

Hillary the Chameleon wears coats of many colors.

Hillary, the subject of a criminal investigation, calls Trump, presumptuous?

She has tried everything. Even married Bill Clinton, and still she can’t craft a simple, clear falsehood.

The 2016 race (Dealer v. Deleter) will not be a nailbiter.

She can either say that the economy sucks and run afoul of Obama, or say it’s great, and run afoul of voters.
