So her actual issue is that trump didn’t go far enough with building the shitty wall
holy fuck that was worse than I could have imagined.
She is definitely gonna eat shit lmao.
That is incredibly surprising of Vanderbilt child and former CIA intern, Anderson Cooper to call her out. It’s a shame the pressure didn’t lead to her head doing something that took them both out.
To be honest, I imagine there’s a segment of the deep state/bourgeois that are pretty opposed to overdoing the immigrant panic thing. If politicians go too far, it could blow back by harming their undocumented work force. There’s that golden mean of keeping them disenfranchised and distrusted, so they’re isolated and desperate, but also that their position in aggregate is stable enough to keep business steady.
Or it’s also possible he just saw blood in the water and decided to pounce.
Possible there’s far more rumbling out there about it than they’re comfortable carrying water for it, as well. CNN does have a brand to worry about and they have to maintain some level of legitimacy to manufacture the consent for the important stuff.
We’re going to build a wall
and have Mexico pay for it!Build The Wall
Strengthen Our BorderBuild the Wall vs Construct the Barrier
She’s so fucking awful
So the only issue she had with the wall was that Trump said he’d make Mexico pay for it.
All she had to do was not say what she really wants to do.
Omg we’re genuinely going with “hahaha do you remember how funny Trump was eight years ago hahahaha”
Note that she admits
was the one who started it. Then Trump wanted to ramp it up. Now she wants to look non confrontstional in building more and basically puts some meritocracy bs to immigration “you have to earn it.”
No discussions of the consequences of our foreign actions and that directly leading to these waves of refugees.
I really want a reporter to ask why we don’t melt the Statue of Liberty if that is what they truly believe and want wrt to immigration now. Obviously the give us your tired, your poor, yearning to be free banter is not what the parties stand for any more. It’d be political suicide suggesting the destruction of a national icon, but I kind of want them to fall on their own sword with this.
if we melted it down we would have enough metal to make a whole lot of child cages
Ripping the copper walls off the statue of liberty along with the rest of the wiring. Real 2024 capitalism hours.
Here lies the hungry, the tired, the poor, that yearned to be free of our oppression.
Bill Clinton started it under Operation Gatekeeper.
There were iterations of walls for decades. They all just kept it going.
And they wonder why “the left” wasn’t so keen on his VP… add it to the pile.
(wrong Cooper, deal with it) “You don’t think it’s stupid anymore?”
“He’s stupid for not accomplishing anything on the project, which is stupid, that I fully support and will do better than him!”
It would be funny if we started using Sheldok Cooper to refer to Anderson Cooper whenever he comes up.
This is real?
That’s effectively what she said. When Anderson Cooper tried to get her to clarify if she meant she wanted to build a wall, she replied “We need a stronger border”
Well that could mean a lot of things, but they’re all bad.
She definitely wanted to say that building the wall is a good idea. She didn’t want to get clipped saying “Trump’s wall was a good idea” because that would be horrible for her campaign. Thus you get this yes-without-saying-yes bs.
Not as a direct quote (it is way closer than it should be…). More of a poetic license to highlight the absurdity of ~1:30 onward from the video
Absolute children are competing for presidency
Remember AC is a Vanderbilt.
But phew she’s squirming. Imagine how much imposter syndrome you feel when you genuinely are a complete fool asked to do something very public and complex like run for president.
It can’t be that hard:
“So, WDYMP, you have been a vocal supporter of communism.”
“Yep”
“And part of that involves breaking up big tech companies”
“For sure. Fuck those guys.”
“How do you propose to do that? Do you have a plan?”
“Unions, Anderson. I’d get like 5 unions out of Google to talk to already existing unions.”
“So you would just have the people working there… take over the-”
“Yeah, the means of production, Anderson.”
Hahahahahahahaha How The Fuck Is Getting Fact Checked Real Hahahaha Comrade Just Believe In Something Real Like Comrade Just Get Counseling From The Union Haha
I wish she would start to imitate Trump’s way of speaking. She should be saying that the problem with Trump’s border wall is that many people are saying that it was a bad wall. Many, many people. And they know - they are wonderful people - they know he had an awful, terrible plan for that wall. The worst.
I truly believed “anyone but Hillary” could rout trump on an election without too much trouble, but this is extreme loser energy, I can’t believe how over it is. any swing state hog that they imagine who they were trying to triangulate with this is just gonna be like “wow that’s smug as hell, I’ll just vote for trump so I don’t have to listen to that crap”.
Once again, it’s to be expected when you bring a bunch of loser clinton advisors on to your campaign. Where tf are Obama’s people? At least he won?? Just lie like he did it’s not hard hooolllly shit. Everything they do is to try and grab Republicans and they sieck so so bad at it.
It’s, uhh, Kamover
Kam-all-over?
Does she even count as “anyone but Hillary”? She’s basically Hillary but less charismatic.
Just lie and say you’re so progressive, Jesus christ. That worked for Obama. He won under the biggest landslide the democrats have seen in a long time.
The problem is that the party leadership already planned the future of the party back in 2006 and their blueprint was Hillary, Obama winning didn’t change the plan
Seriously, just fucking lie your asses off. I’d respect it way more. This is just sad.
