McEntee Says Hillary Really Was Against Nafta

Gerald McEntee just now at an AFL-CIO event in Philadelphia introduced Hillary Clinton by defending her on Nafta, saying he wanted to put to rest any talk that she supported the trade agreement in the White House.

“I’ll tell you this, and maybe she doesn’t even remember this,” he said. “On the day that they had the votes, Hillary Clinton called me—I was in California at a union meeting. this sort of sums it up. She called me and she said, ‘We lost.’”

He added, “So anyone who tries to hang it around her neck is hanging it on the wrong neck.”
