Americans should be warned that this attitude trickles in to Clinton’s policy positions. She promises to promote policies that will crack down on corporate cronyism and too-big-to-fail banks, and regulate every aspect of business life. But you can bet that she and her friends will continue to game the system and rake in their personal fortunes from the very fat cats she claims to want to fight.

She’ll push to expand Obamacare further, giving government even greater power to dictate what kind of insurance everyone must purchase, what subsidies they can receive, and how hospitals and doctor’s offices must operate. But don’t expect lawmakers to follow those rules.

Recall that, in spite the letter of the law that required those working on Capitol Hill to take part in the Obamacare exchange like millions of other Americans, Congress gave itself an exemption, so it could enjoy more subsidies and a better deal than regular Americans get. The rules are for suckers.

Americans have had enough of a ruling class that thinks it’s above the rest of us. We are supposed to be a nation of laws, after all, and those laws are meant to apply to everyone, even those with titles like secretary or senator. During this campaign, of course, Clinton is pretending to be a populist and stand with the little guy. But we know from her past behavior that under a President Hillary, we’d have business as usual and the perpetuation of a political system rigged to benefit the politically connected — especially those named Clinton.
