‘Brexit’ Revolt Casts a Shadow Over Hillary Clinton’s Cautious Path

We'll maybe the quote is going overboard. But according the nation's leading liberal authority, the NY Times, Hillary has no policy for dealing with this global event. Go ahead and disagree with the NY Times, and you'll be tossed out of the Party.

In the Trump thread, you mock him for not having a policy in place. But you never uttered a word about your Hilderbeast's strategy. You just stand around in a jerk chain mocking Trump, while Hillary has nothing in place either. Could you be biased, dishonest and closed minded? Ya, it's a rhetorical question.

Nor does Mrs. Clinton have any plans, advisers say, to take cues from the Brexit campaign and start soft-pedaling her support for globalized markets, or denouncing porous borders, illegal immigrants and the lack of job protections in free-trade agreements.

Working-class folks in the United States are similar to working-class folks in Europe. And a lot of those working-class people feel as if the international economic system is not working for them and strangling the middle class.”

Yet the Democrats acknowledged that the worldview held by Mrs. Clinton and many of the party’s elites was not as attractive to many voters as it once was.

I didn't mock him for a lack of policy.

I pointed out he doesn't give two shits about it. At least not enough to be aware.

Trump is mocked for having no idea what it even is or what it means. Not for having no plan to address it. That you don't acknowledge that and instead try to frame it this way speaks volumes to the complete unfamiliarity of why Trump is criticized.

Unfamiliarity of why Trump is criticized ? Other than the fact he comes off as completely clueless on a daily basis ?
 
Looks like we have a small army of low information leftys here.

"I'm there a lot, I have a lot of investments in the UK and I will tell you that I think they may leave based on everything I'm hearing."

So it is demonstrably false to say he didn't know about it or what it was. That's nothing more than propaganda you're spewing here.

He got the feeling of the people of the UK right, while Hillary and Obama were busily issuing threats.

He was standing in Scotland, which voted 2 to 1 to stay in the EU to begin with and sounding ignorant per usual.

He has admitted he had little to no knowledge of the Brexit issue shortly before he even did that.

You're ignorance in general is pretty amazing to begin with. But that is not surprising, as if you are supporting Trump to begin with you must obviously be even less informed.

This article is talking about campaign strategy. And that quote about her "having no plans" refers to her refusal to change positions and suddenly take Trump's anti-immigrant, anti-globalist stance. It isn't saying she has no policy. It is saying that her policy stance might be politically unpopular. Read your own quote.

Apparently your reading comprehension is highly limited. You don't even understand your own article. You just saw the words "nor does Mrs. Clinton have any plans" and got all excited then ran to create a thread about it. What an embarrassment.

Wrong answer. That quote from Trump and link were from March 21st. So yes he knew about it (at least) months ago and had an opinion on what was going to happen, but also stated that no one should change their vote based on what he thought.

Hillary and Obama on the other hand issued threats and directly tried to tell people in the UK what they should do.

Nice try spinning your narrative there, sparky.

It looks like you didn't comprehend what this sentence means. "Plan" here means "planning to change policy based on", not "plans for brexit".

Now that's cleared up, in case you haven't heard, brexiters never planned to leave the EU anyway.
 
I haven't been in the Brexit thread in a day or so, but do people realize yet that the referendum does not necessarily mean that Britain is going to withdraw from the EU? It's still up to their Parliament - the referendum is merely an advisory to them, but not legally binding.

I don't really want to speculate, but perhaps Hillary knows not to stick her foot in her mouth on the issue, as people can only speculate what's going to happen next in Britain.

"Threats"? They warned of unintended consequences like the value of the GBP taking a nose dive & the UK heading into a recession. As that settles in between now & the election it'll bolster Clinton's position, not undermine it.

But y'all go ahead & vote Trump because he'll shake things up, right?

What would make anybody think it would be in a good way? Because Wall! & because of empty bring back the jobs promises?

So Trump understood it better than did Obama or Hillary, but then went and tweeted about it from the one nation that voted strongly to remain. No doubt the Scots with whom he deals are strongly in favor of Brexit, but he didn't take the time to learn that the Scots with whom he doesn't deal (except to issue orders) were not at all in favor. Seems like a wash to me.

Doesn't really matter if she has a plan since she doesn't dare hold a press conference to discuss it. Too many questions she dare not face. What is it, something like nine months now?

The "no doubt" remark is pure bullshit. We have no way to know that.

Mew. Just mew.
 
What policy could either of them have for Brexit?
The UK existed for hundreds of years before joining the EU, they know how to get by on their own. Everything else is foolish people running in circles with their hands in the air. The hoopla is media created, it's done to sell newspapers, get clicks, or get more viewers. There is no emergency, no fire, no fallout, no shooters, no plague.

The four horsemen haven't even saddled up yet, take a breath.
