Inventing new dragon to slay’: Clinton’s archaic campaign tactics slammed by Russian FM spokesperson
Hillary Clinton is running for US president on promises to protect Americans from “traditional threats” like Russia and a “rising” China, which Russia’s FM spokeswoman described as coming directly from populist pamphlets of the last century.
“No other country is better equipped to meet traditional threats from countries like Russia, North Korea, and Iran – and to deal with the rise of new powers like China,” the candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, Hillary Clinton, said during her first major campaign speech on Saturday. “As your President, I’ll do whatever it takes to keep Americans safe.”

The head of the Russian Foreign Ministry’s Press and Information Department, Maria Zakharova, struck back at the ex-US Secretary of State and former first lady, saying that the Democrats were apparently trying to create a “new dragon” in order to gloriously slay it.
“In order to defeat a dragon, the Democrats first needed to create it, which they have been doing successfully in recent years,” Zakharova wrote on her Facebook page, adding that a proper election campaign required a new and worthy global enemy.ドラゴンをやっつけなければ、なんですね。
One small country like North Korea is a problem too insignificant for a “superpower, capable of basically anything,” Zakharova said. And Iran, which the US is struggling to strike a deal with, is no longer a suitable candidate for the role of “global evil,” she added.
According to Zakharova, Hillary Clinton is simply using outdated, but trusted, public relations techniques.
“Why throw away the worn notebooks with lectures on pre-election populism, if 50-year-old PR-technologies are still working? It’s good enough, as they say,” Zakharova added. “So welcome! The new ‘enemies of the American people’ – the ‘traditionally threatening’ Russia and a ‘rising’ China.”あめりかの新しい敵！
Hillary Clinton’s campaign has gotten off to a rough start, but her largest obstacles still appear to be in front of her in the form of indistinct policy stances and scandals that continue to weigh down her momentum and popularity.
Hillary needs to retire, immediately.
Did Russia and China send daily planes and battleships to American coasts as US does to China and Russia?
Did Russia and China build hundreds military bases around America like US does all around Russia and China?いい質問だね。あべこべなキャンペーンです。ロシアも中国もアメリカの振る舞いに至らないね。多くの軍事基地を張り巡らし、核付潜水艦や戦艦をひそかに世界に送っている。衛星スパイもだね。やれやれ
If Western politicians have only got 'fear' left to their voters, we DO NEED to review our political system!!!
The US is in the grips of the MIE and will do anything to keep the killing going and the money coming in.
Start digging nuclear shelters in your back garden if the Clintons win.
Hillary needs to retire, immediately.
