Failed policies

Alex Smith, a millennial, writes,
Hillary Clinton has often been a stranger to the truth throughout this election, but for a moment, that seems to have changed. She accidentally told one of the hardest truths her campaign has to face: the policies of the last eight years are a disaster for our generation.

Hillary said "Some are new to politics completely. They’re children of the Great Recession. And they are living in their parents’ basement. They feel they got their education and the jobs that are available to them are not at all what they envisioned for themselves. And they don’t see much of a future."

Hillary wants to make this election about anything other than the future. Tax returns from decades ago, beauty pageants, or an old appearance on the Howard Stern show are all topics she’d rather focus our attention on instead of promoting solutions to the issues we face every day.

The real issue of this election is not whether Donald Trump has always said friendly things. He hasn’t. Nor is the real issue of this election whether Hillary Clinton has been friendly with the truth. She isn’t. But this is what we continue to hear day in and day out.

Have you ever wondered why that is? The answer is simple: if Hillary had to explain why we should accept four more years of the same, old, failed policies, she’d lose in a landslide.
