They could compete for who is more dishonest.
Via Free Beacon:
MSNBC host and controversial activist Al Sharpton doesn’t “quite trust” Hillary Clinton, according to sources in a Politico article posted Monday, and he wouldn’t fully endorse Clinton’s understanding racial issues.
Politico‘s Glenn Thrush reports:
People close to Sharpton say he likes Clinton, and is probably inclined to endorse her – but he doesn’t quite trust her, wants to see how her sputtering campaign performs, and is intent on exercising maximum leverage on the issues he cares most about: community policing, sentencing laws, urban economic development. When I turn the tape off, he says, “The minute you endorse you become a surrogate and I want to be an advocate.”
Clinton’s trust issues with the public have allowed Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) to wage a sturdy challenge to her bid for the 2016 Democratic nomination. Sanders lost narrowly to Clinton in Nevada after crushing her in Hampshire, and he has won overwhelmingly among voters citing honesty as their most important trait for a candidate.
