Reading this is very depressing. These comments are not impressively pragmatic, they are just cynical and reinforce the idea that Clinton is an out of touch elitist.
It's almost certain that Hillary will be President, and only because the alternatives were a perverted sociopath and a pothead. This will be the 4th election I have voted in, and never have I looked forward to it less.
Her vision of an open world economy based mainly on green energy is cynical? I would call it extremely idealistic. She also knows that this is a very very very long term vision. That's pragmatic.
