Would Hillary have threatened to go to war against Mexico and Iran? Would Hillary have called up the heads of two allied countries (at least) and berated and threatened them? Would Hillary have threatened to pull out of NATO? Would Hillary have loosened sanctions on Russia spies? Would Hillary have been willing to sign a bill allowing brokers to cheat their clients? Would Hillary be willing to sign a bill allowing corporations to bribe foreign governments? Would Hillary conduct secret conversations with Vladimir Putin? ...
