Goldman Sachs CEO Expresses His Admiration for Hillary Clinton

ZAKARIA: But do you personally support and admire Hillary Clinton? 

BLANKFEIN: "Well, I’ve — I’m supportive of Hillary Clinton, and I certainly — yes, I do — yes. So, flat out, yes. I do. That doesn’t say that I agree with all her policies. I don’t. And that doesn’t say that I adopt everything that she’s done in her political career or has suggested that she might do going forward. But in terms of, you know, her intelligence, her, I think, her positioning not only in terms of her ideology but what I regard as a certain — as a pragmatism that I saw demonstrated when she was our senator and in earlier stages of her political career, when she could cross the aisle and engage other people to get things done, I admire that, and it stands out a little today because it’s a little — because it’s a little — that kind of — that kind of willingness to engage and compromise — but let’s just stop at engage — that willingness to engage is a scarcer commodity these days."
