it’s exactly what she said, and it was last year.

here is senator tim scott reading her own stated, written positions back to her. is scott lying? is he reading someone else’s words? or are you just wrong, again and again and again? she’s been grilled in this all day. not once did she say “i’m sorry, i didn’t write that.”.

It's not her stated position at all, it's an academic thought piece that in her own words...

As stated from the outset, the Article is meant to
be a synthesizing, boundary-defining exercise. Its goal is not to
repackage or refine familiar prescriptions but to expand the scope—and
to sharpen the focus—of the currently fragmented public debate on
what “democratizing finance” means in today’s complex world.
Academics do this stuff all the time. I'm not saying she wouldn't be harder on banks.

I think that was said during a speaking engagement, colorful language but really not that off base. Much of the financial industry is ruthless.

i’ve heard others read it.

spence, do you ever stop playing defense attorney every single time someone criticizes a democrat? are you aware you did that, and assuming you are, doesn’t it strike you as odd that you can’t criticize a liberal?
