“Desperation move” doesn’t half cover this. It’s just cringe comedy now. You want to look away out of sheer embarrassment on his behalf even though he’s brought it on himself. I mean, dude, this isn’t even reprehensible. As Sneering Evil Dictator moves go, this is like
Ximinez: Ha! Right! Cardinal, give the rack [oh dear] give the rack a turn.
Ximinez: [gritting his teeth] I know, I know you can’t. I didn’t want to say anything. I just wanted to try and ignore your crass mistake.
Biggles: I…
Ximinez: It makes it all seem so stupid.
Biggles: Shall I…?
Ximinez: No, just pretend for God’s sake. Ha! Ha! Ha!
My assumption is the half-brother is to pound the starting birtherism thing and the other is Benghazi. So basically, he is playing politics on that. With Patricia it is sad. I do not get the hate this woman has in blaming Clinton for her son’s death. She did not kill him. I understand grief is a heck of a thing and people are not rational but it seems she had to dislike her anyway and be pushed a bit in that direction to get where she is.
As almost everything I have heard her say is not totally true.
False equivalence. Her choices are people who support her in political grounds. Any opposition irritates him. He does not get to bar her supporters. He is exploiting a woman whose perceptions of the facts have been fed by deliberate misinformation and contorted by grief. The choice of President Obama’s half brother is intended to appeal to American racism and to be a dig at President Obama’s private emotions. Not even close.
Without an Obama on the ballot, (and that is a shame) what does Obama’s half brother have to do with anything? He can support anyone he wants and it will mean one more vote for however that is. They say it is Trump. Big deal. that means Trump will get his 39% of the vote. It means nothing more.
I hope Mr. Obama enjoys his free trip to Las Vegas.
P.S. Mrs. Smith, you have had your moment in the spotlight already. I am sorry for you loss but you are now being exploited for Trump’s political purposes. It is a sad thing to see a mother’s grief drive enable this crass type of politicization of a tragic death without any connection to reality.
Half-brother with at least three wives. Like Donald - except he didn’t divorce them. Also, didn’t he dedicate his autobiography to Qaddafi? Or am I mis-remembering? Another genius ploy to win over the women… What a dolt.
I believe that after the debate President Obama’s half brother will be so disgusted with Trump he will go to the media after the debate and say he had to change his mind about supporting Hillary. He will say Trump is just not fit to be POTUS.
I guess Trump is running out of tricks, HRC must have a lot of stuff, not even mentioned yet (stiffed subcontractors etc), and of course the tax returns and State AG bribery stuff…
