Hillary Clinton Warns Britain on Potential Trade Deal with Trump
VOA, Reuters ^ | October 15, 2017 | VOA, Reuters

LONDON — Former U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton cautioned Britain on Sunday over its push to secure a trade deal with U.S. President Donald Trump after it leaves the European Union.

Clinton, the Democratic Party candidate who lost out to Trump in last November's election, also said Britain would face serious disruption if it left the EU without a negotiated deal with Brussels.

The British government has talked up the prospect of bilateral trade deals with the United States and others as one of the major benefits of leaving the EU following last year's surprise referendum vote to leave.

Asked about the prospects of a British-U.S. deal, Clinton told the BBC: "You're making a trade deal with somebody who says he doesn't believe in trade, so I'm not quite sure how that's going to play out over the next few years."

British Prime Minister Theresa May visited Trump in January to talk trade. The countries share $200 billion of trade each year.

But May has since intervened in a dispute between U.S. aerospace firm Boeing and Canadian planemaker Bombardier, lobbying in the interests of Bombardier to try to protect jobs at its factory in Northern Ireland.

Clinton also said Britain would be at a "very big disadvantage" if divorce negotiations with the EU failed, and went on to compare the factors behind the Brexit vote to her own election loss.

"Looking at the Brexit vote now it was a precursor to some extent to what happened to us in the United States... The amount of fabricated, false information that your voters were given by the 'Leave' campaign," she said.

She said her own presidential campaign was subject to similar treatment, citing the spread of false stories by online news outlets, and warned that Britain and other countries must be alert to the risks of such new media.

"The big lie is a very potent tool," she said.

VoA is no longer pro-US. It hasn’t been for decades. We need to pull the plug.

Can we hear her now?

I think she’s running again, and she thinks that the more she shrieks and whines, the better her chances. An aged loon.

“”The big lie is a very potent tool,” she said.”

If anybody would know about “the big lie” being a “potent tool” it would certainly be Hillary, BUT let’s get some action on reining in that woman running around crying on the World’s shoulder. It’s bad enough we have to listen to her much less be embarrassed by her mental health problems being spewed around the World.

Something better get done about her now that should have been done already.

This sub-human knows no limits.

Trashing trade with Britain? Seriously?

Who does that hurt Hillary? It helps both nations. We have lateral societies, roughly the same income.

Why would you warn off Britain from doing something that would make both nations better off?

It defies logic.

She is so full of BS I’m surprised anyone has respect for her anymore. Boggles my mind that someone so corrupt as her could gotten as far as she has.

She has been told to get out in front of Trump, if she wants to stay out of jail.

Look at everything Podesta, Brock, and the Corruptocrats have been doing for the last few weeks, ahead of the Nov 4 “resistance!n” date.

The “Revolution” will be astroturfed...

"VoA is no longer pro-US. It hasn’t been for decades. We need to pull the plug"

Agreed!

Publications like the new, British Voice of America does have one good use, though. It's good missile bait. It will make our foreign enemies more confident about launching nukes at us sooner, so our military forces can annihilate them for good and all. We can stop putting up with their noise and thefts of jobs from American men. The same situation will also spur an enormous draft, so that millions of fatherless, commie boys can be turned into conservative men.
