Hillary’s Foreign Policy Speech Electrifies Neocons
By Hunter Wallace
Hillary is throwing out hunks of red meat for disaffected neocons in her foreign policy speech. She is telling them come on in, join the Democratic Party, the water is warm. The pundits are already on television saying her foreign policy speech is indistinguishable from a ¡Jeb! speech or Rubio’s stump speech.
There's the old Neocon warhawk grandma we all know and love!

@AG_Conservative Seriously, this speech might as well have come from Rubio. Assessment of the FP threat a Trump presidency poses is spot on.

Any conservative candidate could deliver this same speech almost word for word. Rare instance where HRC is correctly describing an opponent.

This is one of Clinton's best speeches. That's a really low bar, but it's true nonetheless. Showing some actual emotion here.

"A trade war is something very different. We went down that road in the 1930s. It made the Great Depression longer and more painful."

It's almost as if she's trying to win *my* vote.

I swear she just copied a Rubio speech word for word. Don't blame her. It's effective. https://t.co/msEoqZv10X

Hillary definitely making a play for disenchanted Republican voters.

Jeb Bush could have given a variation of this speech last fall . . . could have …

Or, for that matter, mainstream media. That's why Rubio had to go negative. He got no earned media otherwise. https://t.co/lSCZ3xfRA3

Republicans gave this speech, media outlets. This is Rubio's stump. You just didn't broadcast it.

That was more or less a Rubio speech, except more sympathetic to the Iran deal and more aware of climate change.

Take out the Iran deal stuff and it's a Rubio speech.

If Hillary could maintain this exact tone between now and November she will create exactly the contrast with Trump she needs.

Look, I wrote an entire book attacking Hillary. Look it up. But the tone in which she's delivering this speech is perfect.

If you don't think this is a good speech, you're coming at it with predetermined views. It's a very good speech.

Holy shit, what an ending.
