Hillary Clinton too Important to March with the People

Saturday we saw another major rally attended by thousands of protesters. Many of those participants voted for Hillary Clinton last November. But the candidate who inspired the 'women's march' could once again not find the time to participate. Why? Maybe she doesn't feel comfortable mingling with the little people. After all, she is political royalty:

The marchers flooded into Washington, D.C. publicly backed by mainstream figures in the Democratic Party and progressive movement, too ― like Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and yes, Hillary Clinton. But if you're wondering whether Hillary Clinton is at the March for Science, the answer appears to be no.

As it stands now, Clinton hasn't made an appearance at the march. This wouldn't be the first time she, nor most politicians, publicly backed a cause that they didn't personally attend ― she also skipped the Women's March on Washington, despite being publicly supportive of it. In short, she seems to have opted for a promote-from-afar approach.

She did attend a festival related to the environment instead, as a mystery guest. That counts as participating in a 'Earth Day' event. Doesn't it? Kind of.

Clinton attended the festival as an unannounced panelist at the premiere of “The Protectors: Walk in the Rangers’ Shoes,” a virtual reality documentary about elephant poaching that was co-created by Oscar-winning director Kathryn Bigelow.

Hillary certainly didn't spend her time reading this book:

In “Shattered,”  journalists Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes portrait Clinton's campaign as a Titanic-like disaster: an epic fail made up of a series of perverse and often avoidable missteps by an out-of-touch candidate and her strife-ridden staff that turned “a winnable race” into “another iceberg-seeking campaign ship.”
