Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton is running hard from her talking point blaming her years of Wall Street donations on the 9/11 terrorist attack.

Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta is fighting back against the controversy surrounding her remarks, calling it “an unfair attack.” The Sen. Bernie Sanders campaign and the Republican National Committee have both criticized Clinton linking the World Trade Center attacks to her close role with Wall Street banks.

As Breitbart News reported, Clinton campaign surrogate Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee used the 9/11 talking point in the Spin Room immediately after the debate. But the campaign knew that it would backfire. As the night went on, Clinton communications director Jennifer Palmieri fretted about how to stop her surrogates from using the talking point.

The New York Times Editorial Board ruled that it’s a no-go.

“Her effort to tug on Americans’ heartstrings instead of explaining her Wall Street ties — on a day that the scars of 9/11 were exposed anew — was at best botched rhetoric. At worst it was the type of cynical move that Mrs. Clinton would have condemned in Republicans,” the Board decided.

Pretty bad when she loses the Slimes.

They'll be back in line momentarily.

The commies at the slimes would just LOVE a Bernie Sanders presidency. Hillary doesn’t go far enough radical left for them.
