text: The epitome of this manipulations in Hawaii government, media and special interest is the rail project.  With 100% certainty it will be total failure with incredible negative financial ramifications yet media and elected leaders all turn a blind eye or justify its existence by at least getting a piece of the rail action in terms or money, power or whatever.  The most honest moment that reflects the Hillary manipulations in Hawaii is in 2016 when a Big Island women at the Demo presidential nominee convention stuck her middle finger right behind Schatz, Hirono and Waihee on national TV when they announced that the Hawaii Demo delegation was supporting Clinton.
