I see no evidence that his payment from MSNOW is influencing his analysis. He always praises the actual military and when he criticizes trump he does so with gravity and self-reflection. To me, it is apparent that there is real money in war cheerleading itself, much more so than an "analysist" payment from a network. The one percent want war and there is money to be made from it. I don't know for sure if Clark is making money from this war, but it wouldn't surprise me. Also, I don't know if he is a CNN analyst or not. I'm curious so I'll try to find out. Edited to add that according to wiki he is an analyst for MSNBC, which doesn't exist anymore. I don't think that's right, because if he was his contract would not allow him to appear on CNN.
