Hillary: Bill Clinton Will Be In Charge Of “Revitalizing The Economy”
Conservative Headlines ^ | Hunter Wallace

Posted on 05/24/2016 10:02:58 AM PDT by HomerBohn

I’m surprised she would come right out and say this:

“In an election year when Bill Clinton’s policies and personal indiscretions have faced intense scrutiny, Hillary Clinton is beginning to shape the role her husband would play in her administration, zeroing in on economic growth and job creation as crucial missions for the former president.

Mrs. Clinton told voters in Kentucky on Sunday that Mr. Clinton would be “in charge of revitalizing the economy, because, you know, he knows how to do it,” especially “in places like coal country and inner cities.” Earlier this month, she told West Virginians that her husband has “got to come out of retirement and be in charge” of creating jobs. …”

Trump already had plenty of ammunition from the Bill Clinton years to hit Hillary on the economy: NAFTA, the World Trade Organization, permanent normal trade relations with China, and the Financial Services Modernization Act. When Bill Clinton was president in the 1990s, Wall Street practically ran the US economy through Alan Greenspan, Robert Rubin and Lawrence Summers.

The truly pivotal decisions that have shaped the American economy over the past 20 years – PNTR with China, the WTO, NAFTA, and Wall Street deregulation – took place on Bill Clinton’s watch. George W. Bush only added a relatively small tax cut and a few minor free-trade agreements. Obama, too, hasn’t changed much. The economic collapse of 2008 was set in motion by Bill Clinton and Phil Gramm.

I assumed Hillary would try to distance herself from Bill’s globalist economic record in light of Trump’s inevitable attacks. Instead, she is owning Bill’s record and running on giving him four more years to build on it.

Will a majority of Americans and many dead voters get behind a ticket that will bring them the dynamic duo back again to the disgraced White Hut?

If Donald Trump isn't elected president and brings with him to his administration the brightest and best then the country is lost.

I doubt Bill can even get it up nowadays without Viagra, Super Beta Prostate Formula, or Cialis......

He’s gonna revitalize what?

The whole “Bill isn’t running” mantra was blown up by HiLIARy’s “Hubby’s gonna do the important stuff” desperation move.

Because Bill did so great the last time. That’s the myth anyway.

When Bubba came to office, the cold war was substantially over, the Berlin Wall came down due to others (RR). There were no wars or major conflicts. Overall there was a huge peace dividend which meant minimal defense spending.

The economy exploded due to the internet and .com stat-ups.
Bubba had nothing to do with this, he just happened to be at the helm.

All this went belly up just after his reign. He was however, responsible for the then coming housing boom, which later had a huge bust..... all of which was blamed on Bush.

The only thing Bill Clinton knows how to run is his mouth.

"“Revitalizing The Economy”

This will be accomplished by running all treasury revenues thru the Clinton Foundation first. Pretty easy call for a Clinton.

That Hillary “H” sign with the arrow pointing right, is actually an illustration from Bill’s Urologist.

Someone needs to tell her that Viagra doesn’t work on the economy.

Clinton was lucky to be president during the dot.com bubble.

A monkey could have been president then and came out a winner as far as the economy goes.

I guess this makes Bill Clinton fair game.
