Hillary Refuses to Meet White Reporters in First Press Conference of 2016
Tea Party ^ | 8/6/2016 | Staff

Hillary Clinton will only speak to black and Latino journalists at her first press conference since Dec. 4, 2015.

Clinton is holding a press conference at the Washington, DC, Marriott on Friday that’s open only to members of the National Association of Black Journalists and the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, according to a press release.

“It is notable that Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton has recognized the 2016 NABJ-NAHJ Convention as a vital gathering to discuss her platform and the issues impacting black and Latino communities,” said NABJ President Sarah Glover.

It’s unknown whether she’ll take questions, but given her past hostility to the press, it’s doubtful unless the questions are given to her ahead of time.

Friday’s press conference will only fuel speculation she’s pandering to minority voters while keeping a tight leash on the press to protect her fake image.

“She gets her message out in ways that are completely controlled, but American citizens deserve better,” Washington Post columnist Margaret Sullivan once wrote, a rare admission from the anti-Trump outlet.

The Clinton campaign even physically lassoed reporters with ropes to keep them from approaching Hillary Clinton during a parade in July 2015.

“Campaign events are carefully stage managed, with reporters getting few opportunities to question the candidate,” the Huffington Post admitted. “Journalists privately met… to discuss grievances over access on the campaign trail — from not receiving timely logistical information to being kept too far from the candidate at public events or kept completely out of fundraisers.”

Hillary will only give interviews where she can control the questions , one wrong question and you will see the evil in her come out. Hillary has no self control, she has such a feeling of regal entitlement and she flips out when cornered.

Way to alienate the white vote, Hillary.

Keep this up and landslide will not even begin to describe what’s going to happen to you in November.

Maybe Hillary feels inferior when talking to white people.

That’ll ingratiate her to many of the left-outers....not.

Maybe some will swallow the red pill, and realize how racist and unfair and balkanizing her behavior really is.....or just be pissed, cuz...heck...they were not rewarded for their fidelity to her ....um....cause.

Poor judgement, on her part, I believe.

Hillary is an empty tin can. Lot’s of noise when tossed around but nothing of any heft.

Best question to ask her IMHO

How many friends and associates of the Clintons were convicted in the Whitewater Investigation ?

A stunning answer few know the answer to.

That wasn’t a news conference, it was a pep rally.

The ‘reporters’ were clapping and cheering for her.

This wasn’t a presser, more of a very tightly scripted campaign stop.

The campaign only calls it a presser to get Trump off her back on the 260 day thing.

“REFUSES “ seems to be the recurring theme for news these days...

She was, after all, speaking at a Black and Hispanic Gathering

Just one of many antiwhite whites that the Left abounds with.

Clintoon is keeping a low silhouette. She knows that her only chance of winning is to hide from the public and keep her big mouth shut. As long as her “media” turds agree to show a little clip of her breaking bad on Trump every now and then, she thinks she can get by. All the shouting at rallies and press conferences scares the crap out of her and it takes a while for the Secret Service guys to calm her down and tell her she’s okay. Dropping balloons and confetti on her really freaks her out too. She’s a phony baloney, plastic banana, good time rock ‘n’ roller just like Slick Willie.

What she had yesterday was not a press conference. Those so-called “journalists” had just minutes before been applauding and cheering her. She obviously had notes that she looked at when she was being asked “questions”. So, she really hasn’t had a press conference in almost 250 days.

She looks and acts like she’s either ill or totally exhausted, and unable to withstand the rigors of a real campaign. She’s worried about when WikiLeaks releases more emails. She knows that there were no 33,000 emails about yoga, wedding and funeral plans.

Her strategy is to have her lapdog media destroy Trump, so she can waltz to a coronation. Well, that aint going to work. She’s going to have to come out of hiding and fight. So far, only Trump and Pence are fighting, while Clinton and Kaine hide.

Calling this friendly confab where she was applauded a “press conference” is a lie.

Isn’t it soft racism to go before minority reporters because she knows they won’t or can’t ask the tough questions ?
