In New Hampshire, on the 2016 campaign trail, Hillary Clinton tried to stage a phony photo-op style town hall meeting. During the stilted talk, she gave obviously rehearsed answers and could not clearly articulate her reasons for not leading on climate change ideas before activists spoke up and loudly demanded answers, if not action.

 In this short clip, a woman handed the mic asks whether Clinton's "refusal to take leadership on climate change" was due to the fact that "you have contributions from the fossil fuel industry in your campaign." Hillary quickly dodges and employs typical politician speak, trying to frame the issue in terms of pragmatism, as if the expectations of people who see the need to ban fracking, oil & gas extraction on public lands is unrealistic. Oddly, she admits she could say the "right answer" for voters, but then walks it back dissuasively saying "It’s really easy to say, 'Yeah, let's ban all these fossil fuel extractions,' and forget about all the people who are employed, who have jobs, who rely on the energy.'

Protesters begin chanting "Act On Climate! Act On Climate! " 

A man tries to force a questioning young female to sit down from behind, and Hillary's trained cult following begins applauding approval wildly for the smiling millionaire politician while trying to drown out the handful of protesters and detractors shouting "Action On Climate! Action On Climate!"


Hillary then tries to close the commotion, and divert the urgency of the issue by saying the obviously untrue satement "That's ok,  ... I'm all in favor of acting on climate." 

Acting is right,  Hillary always acts interested in what people say or want, but as usual , she merely wants power over them, and to provide for her wealthy political benefactors and their global corporate interests...
