Full Show 2/22/16: RNC Attacking Hillary for Racist Campaign in 2008

Published on Feb 23, 2016

Tonight’s Progressive Roundtable discusses the Nevada results and if Bernie can rebound in South Carolina, Bernie’s top five differences with Hillary, and whether it’s time to finally admit that Donald Trump may be our next president. Thom talks fossil fuels and the presidential candidates with Greenpeace USA’s Charlie Cray and in tonight’s Daily Take Thom discusses how we need to start allowing Americans to fail again.


Good show, Thom spends entire show having an intelligent discussion of the elections with two person panel.
It will make you feel all is not lost (if you feel that way).

to push the idea that Sanders has moved Clinton back to the left or forced her to the left? It is bullshit.

The one guy believes the New Dems forced Hillary to the right when she was actually so much more liberal. That is bullshit. Do these guys never fact check history? The Clintons are a huge part of the founding of the DLC and the New Dem revolution. They weren't forced, they have been doing the forcing.

So with bullshit like this, no matter how much I enjoy Hartmann, I just can't take seriously the guys he is discussing stuff with.

make that statement. She only makes those statements for the votes. The Clintons represent
corporate interests and no one else.

It becomes difficult to trust anyone's discussions about her and Sanders because of such distortions of fact and denial of history.
