The American People Get It, So Why Doesn't Hillary?

A poll released today found that Americans understand that the USA is at war with radical Islam.  Fifty-six percent of Democrats and seventy percent of Republicans hold that view.  On top of that, 92% of those polled said they regard radical Islamic terrorism as a “serious” threat to national security.

Now compared those numbers with Hillary Clinton who proudly proclaims that "
Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism."

Hillary seems to be living on a different planet than most of her fellow Americans.  How can she be that blind?  Why would she take a position like this when she knows most people don't agree?

The answer is not all that difficult to determine.  While the American people understand the reality of the threat from radical Islam, those inside the media/government liberal bubble are of the view than anyone who mentions radical Islamic terrorism is necessarily a racist, bigoted Islamophobe.  That means that a big chunk of the people who give big money to Democrat candidates and who form a big part of the activist base of the party agree with what Hillary is saying.  Hillary has a choice between following the views of the ultra rich Democrat donors, the college professors and the super leftist liberals or accepting the reality which is easily seen by the average American.  Hillary, not surprisingly, selects the course that brings her the most money.

It will be interesting to watch Hillary's views on terrorism "evolve" once she no longer has a challenge from Bernie Sanders with which to contend.  Her current position will no doubt become just a misunderstanding of her actual position.  In other words, it will all become just another of Hillary's many lies.
