    She’s a limousine liberal who has likely never ridden the subway. You see tourists do this all the time—it has something to do with the way you hold the card to ensure that the mag strip is in full contact with the reader. Real new yorkers figure this out quickly, tourists don’t. Hillary is a tourist. And a carpetbagger.

      Bernie thought the subways still used tokens. TOKENS. and he’s FROM BROOKLYN.

      Yeah, but he hasn’t lived here in many, many years. And he’s never represented New York... Hillary, on the other hand. . .

    Was there a group of huffy straphangers behind her rolling their eyes and saying the word “tourist” in a VERY condescending way?

    Last year Elizabeth Warren sat next to me on the subway, and it may have been the best day of my life (having kids is overrated). Since neither Bernie nor Hillary know how to ride public transit, she should probably jump into the race.

      That’s awesome. The only famous person I’ve ever sat next to on the train was Bam Margera and I was nervous the whole time because I thought there was a distinct possiblity he was going to slap me in the face while someone got it on video. (He actually was very friendly and very chatty with everyone, so my fears were unfounded.)

    Why do I give a shit if Hilary Clinton can or will ride the subway? I know she won’t after this campaign is over, just like she’ll stop eating fair food and anything not prepared by her home chef.

      Well, she was a senator from this state. You’d think she’d know at least the one basic thing we poors have to deal with.

      It’s very important to her ability to president that she is able to do these things.

    A tip for Hillary: I recently wiped all the accumulated grime off of the black bar on my MetroCard and now it works much better.

      You gotta hold it from the back corner of the card, and apply the force from there. Smooth clean swipes, every time.

      No amount of wiping can remove Hillary’s accumulated grime. Her Metro card, however, is brand new.

    I’ve lived here for 10 years, and this is SO PAINFUL to watch. I want to snatch that card out of her hand, swipe for her, and shove her through the turnstile.

    However, it would have been great if she got “INSUFFICIENT FUNDS” and had to stand in line for a top-up like a rube.

    That’s the trouble with trying to fit in with “the people.” When I ran for local city council, I took a camera crew and a dozen PR professionals to purchase drugs from a local rapscallion just to show people I was “down.” He just stood there as I swiped my credit card back and forth in his mouth. Crazy thing is the drugs didn’t dispense from his eyes into my Whole Foods organic drug bags as I had expected. You think you know how normal people live, but when you break into their house and swipe your credit card in their mouth you realize that it’s better to never interact with anyone who lives outside of your compound.

    She’s a presidential candidate. Can we just swing around to the emergency exit and let her in that way?

      I know. The only thing I hate more than privilege is when privileged people FAIL TO USE THEIR PRIVILEGE. Come on. If I’m ever a billionaire, I don’t think I would ever walk anywhere again. I’d pay people to carry me around.
