Clinton Threatens America’s Future With 'Liberal Progressivism' - US Official

If Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton becomes the next US president and Democrats gain control of Congress, the United States will come under threat of liberal progressivism, US House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan said in Madison, Wisconsin on Friday.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Ryan noted that the left in the United States is rigging the system, because liberal progressivism is government by and for the elites, instead of government by and for the people.

"The left does not just seek a continuation of the last eight years, they do not just seek to further the liberal progressive experiment, they intend to make it into a reality, an arrogant, condescending and paternalistic reality," Ryan stated.

"When Hillary Clinton says we are all stronger together, what she means [is]… we are stronger if we give up our ties and our responsibility to one another and hand it all over to the government," Ryan explained.

Ryan also said that if Clinton is given both the White House and Democrats control of Congress, nothing will stop the United States from coming to a precipice, and this generation will be the first one not to leave the next generation better off.
