Views[edit | edit source]
Racism[edit | edit source]
Clinton called young Black men "super predators" who "place zero value on the lives of their victims" and used these claims to justify mass incarceration.[6]
On China[edit | edit source]
Speaking in a Chatham House event series titled "The Future of Liberal Democracies" in 2021, Clinton expressed the view that the Western supply chain had become dependent on China, which was bad for Western geopolitical strategic interests, and that the only way to compete and win against China would be to "take back the means of production."[7][8] Clinton explained that the US had found itself at the "mercy" of China at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic due to the supply chain issue, and expressed the view that "it's time we recognize that we need to rebuild our own supply chains, even if that requires a certain level of subsidized industrial productivity.[7][8] Clinton concluded that "Western democracies" would have to "get smarter" about the "economic threat" posed by China's "controlled, top-down" economy:
We've got to get smarter about how we deal with the economic threat, and for people who say, 'Oh, well, you know that disrupts the market,' China has disrupted the market! China is not a free market economy. We tried. We let them into the World Trade Organization, we sent our businesses over there, we made trade deals! They are a controlled, top-down economy. You will never compete and win against them unless you take back the means of production.[7][8]
Muammar Gaddafi[edit | edit source]
Clinton was filmed laughing and saying, "We came, we saw, he died!" regarding the killing of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi following the 2011 NATO invasion of Libya during Clinton's tenure as Secretary of State. Upon being asked by a reporter if Gaddafi's death had anything to do with her visit, Clinton responded "no," then rolled her eyes and smiled, saying, "I'm sure it did."[9][10]
