Hillary Deletes More Than Emails

Hillary Clinton's 2014 memoir 'Hard Choices' is out in a new paperback edition – minus a detail that trade hawk Donald Trump might notice. The original hardcover book included a discussion of Clinton's efforts as secretary of state to urge foreign coutries to join negotiations for the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

That 12-nation Pacific rim agreement has become a political football, with the Obama administration cheerleading for its success and Trump rooting for its failure – and Clinton caught in the middle. Her book's new paperback edition drops entirely the description of her work on the pro-TPP side during a 2009 conference in El Salvador.

NOW YOU SEE IT... Hillary Clinton's memoir 'Hard Choices' lost a passage about her cheerleading for the Trans-Pacific Partnership when it went from hardcover to paperback, but now she opposes the controversial trade agreement

AGAINST IT ALL ALONG: Donald Trump has consistently hammered the TPP in his campaign

'[W]e worked hard to improve and ratify trade agreements with Colombia and Panama and encouraged Canada and the group of countries that became known as the Pacific Alliance — Mexico, Colombia, Peru, and Chile — all open-market democracies driving toward a more prosperous future to join negotiations with Asian nations on TPP, the trans-Pacific trade agreement,' the book read in 2014.

Now the entire two-page section that described her advocacy for the TPP is gone, according to the Center for Economic and Policy Research. Instead there's a disclaimer on the copyright page noting that 'a limited number of sections' have been cut 'to accommodate a shorter length for this edition.'

In all 96 pages were eliminated, some of them in a way that changes Clinton's public positions just months before the presidential election.

So sorry if this has already been posted, I couldn't find it in the search bar. And I couldn't find the story in ANY USA news sources. As usual, I had to go to the British sources to find the story. Talk about manipulation of the facts to protect 'their gal' !

Liberals are all about “the narrative”. Which means they make stuff up and tell stories to make themselves look good. Concepts like Truth and Accuracy play no part at all in “the narrative”.

Hillary’s only “Hard Choices” involve which “Inconvenient Truths” of her autobiographical criminality she will delete each new day.

People, you are actually LIVING in the book “1984”. I could make a case that it is actually worse.
