Hillary Clinton on Wednesday claimed that being a “capitalist” hurt her in the 2016 primaries because so many Democrats are socialists.
“It’s hard to know, but I mean if you’re in the Iowa caucuses and 41 percent of Democrats are socialists or self-described socialists, and I’m asked ‘Are you a capitalist?’ and I say, ‘Yes, but with appropriate regulation and appropriate accountability.’ You know, that probably gets lost in the ‘Oh my gosh, she’s a capitalist!’” Clinton said during a conversation with Alan Murray, the Chief Content Officer at Time Inc.
Clinton barely defeated Sanders in the Iowa caucuses in 2016, getting 49.9% of the delegates to Sanders’ 49.6%.
Sanders, before a potential 2020 run, is now pushing a program that would guarantee every American a government job that pays $15 per hour in addition to health benefits.

“We say to them, `no, comrades, you can’t have those things. You must give them to the state’”.
Excuse #???????
Hold it!
HRC just validated that the Democratic Party is rife with socialists.
That is a gift.
Thank you HRC, Not many socialists. .. er democrats would admit that. Even though it is obvious, that admission ist verbotten.
This is a joke, right?
Even after everything that’s happened, Hillary STILL can’t tell the truth.
Sounds like she’s tryimg to out-bernie Bernie Sanders.
I love it.
Shes trying to keep her name in the news keeping a hope she can run again...her hologram post her physical demise will be programmed to run for president...political equivalent of a hoarder....paging Norma Desmond...
She’s right. Being a capitalist in today’s Democratic party IS a liability.
Of course, to call Hillary Clinton a capitalist is laughable.
LOL! She isn’t a capitalist. She’s a liar and a thief.
Dear Hill, there is a vast difference between
a capitalist and a con artist/grifter.
A socialist is also a con artist/grifter
but with a better con.
