Les Deplorables grow in numbers & server with each passing day!
Join Les Deplorables, Patriots, and help us take our SOVEREIGN DESTINY BACK FROM THE GLOBALIST SCUM!
Les Deplorables (many millions) shall tune in to watch the kabuki-theater that is Hillary Rodham-Clinton's "let them eat cake" rhetoric tomorrow.
Here are seven of Clinton’s biggest flip-flops:
1. Gay Marriage.
For almost a decade and as late as 2010, Clinton opposed gay marriage but backed civil unions for gay and lesbian couples, as this video makes clear. In 2002, Clinton was asked by Chris Matthews of MSNBC, “Do you think New York State should recognize gay marriage?†Clinton’s answer: “No.†In 2004, as New York senator, she said: “I believe that marriage is not just a bond, but a sacred bond between a man and a woman.â€

By 2013, she was saying: “I support marriage for lesbian and gay couples†personally and as a matter of policy. But in a 2014 interview with Terry Gross of NPR’s Fresh Air, she denied having changed her stance and suggested that Gross was trying to twist her words.
2. The Iraq War.
In 2002, explaining her vote for invading Iraq, Clinton said: “It is clear… that if left unchecked Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage chemical and biological warfare and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons …This is probably the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make. Any vote that might lead to war should be hard, but I cast it with conviction.â€
On Meet the Press in 2008, Clinton defended her vote authorizing the war, telling the late Tim Russert: “it is absolutely unfair to say that the vote as [former Senator and Defense Secretary] Chuck Hagel, who was one of the architects of the resolution, has said, was a vote for war. It was a vote to use the threat of force against Saddam Hussein, who never did anything without being made to do so.â€
Last May, she changed her tune about the vote, saying: “I made it very clear that I made a mistake, plain and simple. And I have written about it in my book.â€
3. The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).
As secretary of state under President Obama, Clinton backed this ambitious 12-nation trade agreement, which was never concluded and is now in jeopardy. But Sanders – and Republican nominee Donald Trump – have denounced trade deals such as TPP as detrimental to American workers. Now Clinton opposes TPP, which she once called the “gold standard†of trade deals.
4. North American Free Trade Agreement.
As first lady, Clinton was credited with helping her husband, President Bill Clinton, secure passage of NAFTA, a major trade deal that has since been criticized as a killer of U.S. manufacturing jobs. As a senator in 2004, she said: “I think on balance, NAFTA has been good for New York and America.†In her unsuccessful primary battle against then Senator Barack Obama in 2008, she said she was one of the voices within Bill Clinton’s administration “warning about NAFTA.â€Â

5. The Keystone Pipeline.
In 2010, Secretary of State Clinton said the administration was “inclined†to support the building of the controversial pipeline, which would transport heavy crude oil from Canada to the U.S. She now flat-out opposes Keystone, saying “I never took a position on Keystone until I took a position on Keystone.†PolitiFacts calls that a “No Flip,†but others see it as a decision based on which way the political windsock was blowing.
6. Criminal Justice.
In 1996, Hillary Clinton spoke in New Hampshire in support of a law signed by Bill Clinton, the 1994 Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, which has since been blamed in part for America having the highest mass incarceration rate in the world. She said: "We also have to have an organized effort against gangs. Just as in a previous generation we had an organized effort against the mob. We need to take these people on …They are often the kinds of kids that are called super predators — no conscience, no empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way, but first, we have to bring them to heel." Clinton has been criticized by Bernie Sanders and most recently Republican National Chairman Reince Priebus for calling African-American youths “super predators.†Though she didn’t make a direct connection, Sanders said, “it was a racist term, and everyone knew it was a racist term.†Clinton has said she regrets using those words. Her website now says: “This mass incarceration epidemic has an explicit racial bias, as one in three black men can expect to go to prison in their lifetime. A significant number of those incarcerated are held for low-level, nonviolent offenses. We must end the era of mass incarceration.â€
7. Illegal Immigrant Children.
In 2014, Clinton discussed the influx of children from Central America illegally crossing into the U.S. with Christiane Amanpour of CNN. She said: “We have to send a clear message that just because your child gets across the border, that doesn’t mean your child gets to stay.†But in an MSNBC/Telemondo Town Hall in February, Jose Diaz-Balart asked if those children should be treated like a message. “Well,†Clinton said, “the children themselves need to be taken care of. They are children. They should be given every help that we can.â€

Boom!
Hillary won't get 50% of the black turnout that Obama got, nor 70% of the Hispanic turnout.
IN FACT, if one offsets the gains Trump will get in Hispanic converted votes, Hillary may get less than 60% of the Hispanic votes that Obama received (and less than 50% in Florida)!
Trump must deliver on many of his promises to help the middle and working class, who GOT HIM ELECTED and who were largely forgotten under both George W. Bush & Barack Obama, now.

You can take those 50% of the black turnout that Obama got, nor 70% of the Hispanic turnout to the bank for sure. Plus there's this cuban guy who has a high paying gig too.
Until the Spirit Cooking came out. Most Latinos don't dig that Santera shit. We were looking at rentals in Miami once, and saw an apartment where they had converted a closet to Santera worship, there was like a jug of chicken blood and all these black candles and shit, both the landlady and my wife (Puerto Rican and Cuban) ran the fuck out of there.
