Bernie is calling her out.
( pic inspired by this comment by Kossack Otto de Fe )
WASHINGTON -- Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) says it's long past time for Hillary Clinton to make clear where she stands on a pending trade deal between the U.S. and Pacific nations that has divided wings of the Democratic Party.
"If she’s against this, we need her to speak out. Right now. Right now. I don’t understand how any candidate, Democrat or Republican, is not speaking out on that issue," the presidential contender told reporters at a breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor in Washington, D.C., on Thursday.
The deal, known as the Trans Pacific Partnership, is currently under debate in Congress. In what amounts to an unlikely alliance, Republican leaders and the White House are urging members of the House to support legislation granting the president authority to fast-track the deal through Congress. Progressives like Sanders and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) oppose the effort over concerns that it would be detrimental to both American and foreign workers.
What are the chances that HRC will answer this call? ( Hint: It's kinda like that 3am thing)
What are the chances HRC will be forthcoming about all the hard work and long winded speeches she gave promoting the TPP while SOS?
Given her skill at dodging sniper fire, I'd say about zero.
