From WaPo: Hillary Clinton makes her Wall Street problem worse

Wow. Just. Wow.

Hillary and Bill are bought and paid for in my opinion. Explains NAFTA, China in the WTO, all of it.

From WaPo:

“In all, donors from Wall Street and other financial-services firms have given $44.1 million to support Hillary Clinton’s campaigns and allied super PACs, compared with $39.7 million in backing that former president Bill Clinton received from the industry."
"Only about $75,000 of the $75 million Sanders has raised for his 2016 campaign has come from donors in the finance sector."
“With the $21.4 million that Wall Street has given for her current White House bid, Clinton is on track to quickly exceed the nearly $23 million that she raised in her three previous campaigns combined from the PACs and employees of banks, hedge funds, securities firms and insurance companies."
