Hillary Clinton, Inc., is not only vying to become one of the oldest world leaders in history, she is also trying to make history by becoming the first Corporation-American to be elected president. If successful, she would also become the first white Democrat to win the White House since her husband in 1992 (and 1996).
As a corporation-individual, Hillary is uniquely suited to represent the Democratic Party in the post-Obama era, a party that rejects the class-based brand of paleo-socialism espoused by Bernie Sanders, in favor of a soft-core corporatism doused in identity politics. The Clintons reported pre-tax earnings of more than $30 million over the past year by giving speeches to Wall Street banks and other major corporations. This is consistent with the modern Democratic view that individuals/corporation are entitled to obscene wealth so long as they believe the right things. People like environmentalist billionaire Tom Steyer and former Obama strategist David Plouffe, for example, who currently strategizes for Uber, a massive “sharing economy” conglomerate that principled old-school liberals like New York mayor Bill de Blasio want to destroy.
Like any corporation with a halfway-decent public relations office, Hillary knows how to pander using superficial signaling on social media. Sure, she didn’t support gay marriage until 2013, but she changed her Twitter avatar to a rainbow super fast after that Supreme Court ruling. She knows how to rebrand herself by disavowing and apologizing for past positions most Democrats now find deplorable, such as supporting the Iraq War and her husband’s mass-incarceration policies. Domino’s did the same thing when it apologized for making terrible pizza.
ALL of it here:
