Hillary Clinton is an American hero. Agree or disagree?
Summary
A straphanger drops a surprising Hillary Clinton take that goes off the rails fast. He calls her an American hero, then immediately backtracks to "100% disagree." His reasoning? She stayed with Bill after the Lewinsky scandal, making her a "pretty cool wife." He compares this to his own divorce after getting a "blow up at work." Things get weirder when he praises Clinton for almost being "the first email president" because of her email controversy, completely missing the point of why people were upset. Kareem tries to steer the conversation, but the confusion is already peak subway energy.

Oh, um, my take is that Hillary Clinton is an American hero. 100% disagree. Whoa, I'm sorry. Um, are you married? No. Okay, well maybe this might not make so much sense to you, but did you know that her husband got a blow job in the White House and she didn't even care? Uh, back me up, married folks. That's a pretty cool wife, you know what I mean? When I got a blow up at work, my wife divorced me. You? Oh my God, it was your mistake divorce? Is that the only reason you find her to be an American hero? Well, you know, there's a bunch of other stuff. I mean, obviously I didn't vote slip right through it, but she—she had so many good things. Everyone was so mad about her emails, but yeah, she would have been the first email president. You got mailed, and I would have loved to live in a world where that would have happened. I look, I—I would have been cool with her being the first female president, 'cause that's cool, but not because she has emails.
What's your take?
