Hillary Pledges to Put Bill in Charge of the Economy

"SNIP.............


Hillary Clinton “has always made known that she wants Bill Clinton to have some kind of role in the White House should she become president, but over the past few weeks she’s begun to reveal more about what exactly that would be,” ABC News reports.

Said Clinton: “My husband, who I’m going to put in charge of revitalizing the economy, cause you know he knows how to do it. And especially in places like coal country and inner cities and other parts of our country that have really been left out.”

It'd be right in line with his NAFTA support.

That way Hillary could have clean hands on TPP when she pivots her position: "My husband says this is necessary to grow the economy. Not my words-- his."

Gee I wonder how many time bombs might be put in place.....Like the little gifts that led to the Crash of 2008. And all of the Corporate Free Trade agreements that have helped to hollow out the American working class.

It also does you no favors with respect to sexist criticisms to announce you will put your husband in charge of a critical component of the presidency.
