Honestly she must know this makes her seem shady. Just release them.... unless she's said something she wants to hide. The woman who kept asking her was amazing. I wonder if she stans Bernie.

People are interested in knowing what's in them. Including Democrats. This is when she got booed by the audience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just because it's Hillary and every activity she does has to be monitored, checked, and verified? Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're interested in knowing what she's said to Wall St. in general. If you've got nothing to fear you've got nothing to hide. She should release them for transparency. She's constantly accused of being a liar. If she has nothing to hide I don't see what the issue is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A follower follows others actions and copies. Bernie is releasing his taxes. Hillary is only going to release the transcripts IF others do. She should lead the release, not follow.

It's just odd that people are pressing the issue like this. Her putting them out there feels more like an act of defense against accusations that are out of nowhere. I can see why she doesn't want to, although she probably should. Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gov Hooka 8,008 Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Hillary is bringing up the point both in the environmental agreement point and the minumum wage point that she has less aggressive policies because she has to be flexible to opposing views, something which could be a fatal flaw for sanders , who is too staunch in his views. Flexibility is important for being president and Hillary seems more flexible than sanders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is seen as untrustworthy from Republican voters and now Bernie voters within her own party. If she wants transparency she should release them.

It's because they continue to propagate those assumptions. I doubt anything would satisfy them. It's probably better optics to simply let them believe what they want. And if an unreleased speech is costing someone votes, those votes were never going to her to begin with. What an idiotic reason. Anyway gonna go to the gym. Will watch the debate later.

She's probably hiding something that wouldn't benefit her. Not something necessarily bad but something that might bring up something unfavorable for her campaign. That's what I think.
