Brzezinski to Clinton: Stop Sounding Like You’re Just Repeating Elizabeth Warren

On Morning Joe Wednesday morning, host Mika Brzezinski said that Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton was onto something with a more economically populist message, but needed make it come across as more organic.

Is there maybe a more direct way of putting that?

“If this is going to resonate with people, it has to stop sounding like she talked to Elizabeth Warren on the phone and then repeated everything Elizabeth Warren said,” Brzezinski said. “I wish she had said this before the two of them met and people started talking about Elizabeth Warren.”

The rest of the panel pointed out that economic populism had become everybody’s message, even Ted Cruz’s.

“I want to believe it, I guess is my point,” Brzezinski said. “I want to believe this is her message.”
