Crowd Cheers Clinton's Call To 'Raise Taxes On The Middle Class'
The Daily Wire ^ | August 3, 2016 | Robert Kraychik

Posted on 08/03/2016 4:47:03 PM PDT by Cheerio

Hillary Clinton called for raising taxes on the “middle class” while campaigning on Monday in Omaha, NE. Joined by left-wing Democrat billionaire Warren Buffett, she received applause from those in attendance.

“Because while Warren is standing up for a fairer tax code, Trump wants to cut taxes for the super-rich,” said Clinton. “Well, we’re not going there, my friends. I’m telling you, right now - we’re going to write fairer rules for the middle class and we are going to raise taxes on the middle class!”

“She really said this?!?!”

They’re calling it a gaffe.

More like a Freudian slip.

She is not saying “we’re” there is an extra syllable. Maybe “we are” or “we aren’t” which is what the campaign says. Taken in context it makes no sense.

No. She actually said aren’t and not are. If Trump hits her on this, he will lose again and he can’t afford to trip up anymore.

“That is hilarious”

The 14-17 Years old mush heads kids didn’t know any better than cheer, what’s Buffett’s excuse? Has that Prostrate cancer spread to his brain?

No, she clearly said are. She may have intended to say aren’t or meant to say upper class, but mostly likely, it was a freudian slip and she simply meant what she said. After all, Obama raised taxes on the middle class and she approves of that so why would anyone doubt?

Try some high end head phones. They really bring out audio detail.

Crowd Cheers Clinton’s Call To ‘Raise Taxes On The Middle Class’>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Clinton could announce the reopening of Auschwitz and the crowd would still cheer her.

Hillary supporters are bused into every venue she has, to cheer her.Trump has no need to do busing, he regularly draws crowds of 12 thousand to 30 thousand everywhere he goes.People wait a whole day to get in to see Trump and there are usually 2 thousand people waiting outside who cannot get in.

That crowd draw of Trump is why Hillary is attacking Trump viciously, and why the media is spinning against Trump and lastly it is the reason Obama attacks Trump daily. They are trying to break Trump’s ground game through making Trump a demagogue, similar to what was done to Sarah Palin.

The Donald is winning on the ground....big time.

I agree. BUT there are not enough of us left and the demographics do not bode well for his win - sorry that is my story and I am sticking to it. He does not have a stash of cash like Hitlery and he does not have a the propaganda machine that the magic female has.

It’s not what she says that matters, just being there and opening her mouth gets votes for her opponents. She would do well to boycott cameras at all her appearances, the slavish MSM does her no favours.
Her appeal is limited to the brainless worshippers of celebrity...the DNC might just as well have chosen someone like Oprah or any washed up movie star.
They would have done better.
Her attendances are shrinking at an alarming rate from what I can see.
She’s so angry now it’s actually an insult to the ears to leave the volume on when she appears. At our house, we click her off immediately. We don’t watch horror shows, life is scary enough...

What Trump needs to do is start talking about how he’s going to absolutely crush her in the debates. Like he did with every single one of the Republican primary candidates. Over and over again....he will crush her on national tv with millions of Dems looking at her horrible performance, stuttering and HEAD BOBBING, etc. And then say over and over... the horror of having to meet him toe to toe would drive weaker persons to drink. Hehehe. She’d have a stroke weeks before it even happened.

Some believe Hillary to be non compos mentis, and they have the analysis to prove it, see video link:

I saw that. They would have cheered if she said she was going to bake their babies and eat them for lunch.

She obviously misspoke, she meant to read she would NOT increase taxes on the middle class, but the placards with the instructions to CHEER AND CLAP NOW were already up...so they cheered and clapped.

As for the nervous tics and over the top reactions, it's a lot like watching The Picture of Dorian Gray in slow motion. She's cracking up, she's melting, she's desperate, she knows what she's eventually going to look like in an orange jumpsuit.
