Hard To Tell Your OWNERS To 'Cut It Out'...

Analysis finds some former GOP donors have turned to the Democratic front-runner

from the link:

Hillary Clinton is consolidating her support among Wall Street donors and other businesses ahead of a general-election battle with Donald Trump, winning more campaign contributions from financial-services executives in the most recent fundraising period than all other candidates combined.

The Democratic front-runner has raised $4.2 million in total from Wall Street, $344,000 of which was contributed in March alone. According to a Wall Street Journal analysis of fundraising data provided by the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics, the former secretary of state received 53% of the donations from Wall Street in March, up from 32% last year and 33% in January through February, as the nominating contests began.

Yep... She's Gonna Rein Them In Alright. Anybody Believe That?

[desmiller]

1. Not surprised. Wall Street sure has faith in her.

[AzDar]

2. They're expecting a big ROI... that's for sure. Probably those assurances in the Transcripts...

[silvershadow]

3. Reining them in is just a campaign meme. nt

[dchill]

4. What's in YOUR wallet?

[Dragonfli]

6. Or more aptly, who's in YOUR wallet? /nt

[dchill]

8. Of course.

[MisterP]

23. WHO's in your wallet?

[uponit7771]

5. Get it girl, good for her.. no need to go to a tank battle on a horse. Also, the non privileged has

... a different boogyman than Wall Street

[amborin]

13. you appear not to grasp the role Wall St has played in the immiseration of so many "non privileged"

[uponit7771]

18. You seem not to understand why one groups boogyman might be stupid cops and the others

... boogyman might be stupid doctors.

Again, the privileged think they can define everyone else's boogyman...

[w4rma]

21. What are you even talking about, uponit7771? Who is *your* "boogyman"? (nt)

[uponit7771]

34. Having to explain to a 7yr black boy who goes to a super diverse school why his skin color makes...

... him more threatening to police and white society as a whole than some of the friends he brings home or goes to parties with.

That scares the shit out of me a lot more than what some fat cat is going to do with all their money...

Having to explain to my beautiful dark skinned daughter why there's so many non dark skinned people on TV and having white folk like hair isn't attractive to all men,... even white men.

These are subjects Sanders decided were "not important" when he interviewed in 2014 about why dems were losing "working class" (whatever the fuck that means) whites.

Sanders dismissal of other peoples boogyman and concentrating on the privileged ones is one of the reason he gets stommped in diverse environments.

[Gomez163]

27. Then Bernie should sell all his stock NOW

[msongs]

7. bernie is behind by 3 million votes most of which are not wall streeters nt

[dchill]

9. Keep tootin' that bent horn, Dizzy!

[Lizzie Poppet]

30. A good portion of whom can't help her in November.

As long as we're trotting out the usual canned responses...

[senz]

10. Bought and sold. We know who she serves

and it's NOT the American people.

[hollysmom]

11. but but but. I heard she represetned wall street on 9/11 and that iswhy they support her

I have heard her say it (way more than once.)

[amborin]

12. obscene, w/ such ominous implications for addressing the financial elite's consolidation of power

[StayFrosty]

14. Not even Sanders has come up with one case of where the money she has gotten has influenced her.

He has been asked several times to provide examples that prove the money she has received have influenced her and he has yet to come up with one.

[Chezboo]

16. Wrong.

Sanders has answered the claim that the Bankruptcy Bill is just one case where $ching$ching$ching influenced her; msm just chooses to ignore it. I know I'm wasting my time with you, an obvious Brock inspired million dollar Clinton camp paid troll, but not willing to let your crap stand unanswered.

[uponit7771]

19. Link and quote? tia

[grasswire]

17. nope

try again -- that's an old talking point

[Lizzie Poppet]

31. Heh.

26. At least try to be original so that you distinguish yourself from the rest of them.

15. K&R

[fun n serious]

20. Good! We need it to beat Trump! nt

[Demsrule86]

22. Really?

On the one hand, Bernie wants to destroy the banking system (Wall Street view) and the other choice other than Hillary is Trump...Wall Street knows Trump...he fleeced lots of people in New York...of course, they will donate to the only sane candidate. And as one, who dated Wall Street bankers and has a brother who works on Wall Street...I would like to say a fair number of them are Democrats.

[arcane1]

28. "Bernie wants to destroy the banking system" is a lie. Why do you need to tell lies?

Why isn't the truth enough for you?

[Demsrule86]

36. It is not a lie

I heard his interview with Rachel Maddow about breaking up the banks...chaos would ensue...jobs would be lost and the financial capitol of the world would move to China. It would certainly damage our banking system which we depend on for pensions, mortgages etc. We need better regulation no doubt. We also need to enact some form of national bucket law...but this attacking of the banking system by Bernie should end. What good does he do? Elizabeth Warren did way more than Bernie ever did.

[brooklynite]

24. BTW: how much are you good for?

Bernie's $200 M fundraising is impressive; now, throw that out (he's spent most of it) and raise more that $1 BILLION for him (what Obama spent in 2012, despite having no Primary opposition and all the power of incumbency). And none of this dribbling in over a year; he'll need it in about six weeks after the convention.

Can we get your check tomorrow?

[CobaltBlue]

25. Does this mean a President Hillary Clinton will do what Presdent Obama didn't do: Go after Wall St.?

[AzDar]

38. 'Going after' their checkbooks, certainly...

[Jitter65]

33. Good for her!! She will need all she can get for the GE.

Don't fool yourselves about Trump funding his own campaign...he will get every dime back from the RNC at the end.
This is what self-funding means when you "loan" your campaign money.

But Hillary will need every dime she can get to help herself and other Democrats running.

[whatchamacallit]

35. I just read a braindead OP concluding all the massive Wall Street bribery

is proof Hillary is good for the economy. I shit you not.

[AzDar]

37. Amazing. The creativity is almost admirable...

[mhatrw]

39. She said, "Reign them in."
