What unmitigated horseshit.
Lynch flopping around, however, smacks of the typical âcringing Demâ stance taken by damned near all Democrats most of the time.
The GOTPer would go with âNothing inappropriate happened, STFU and investigate a Democrat.â Meanwhile, the Democrat apologizes.
Sheâs on the way out by January anyways and Bill will get a good spanking from Hillary.
As thatâs what old fart male conservatives like to think about, why not give them a real thrill? Republicans arenât going to get one at their convention. Newt or Christie as the VP? Whatâs wrong with Palin again or Lyinâ Ted? It would appear that Trump has sold out to the Establishment.
She should have said the sex was good but she didnât care for his politics.
Cause the appearance of a scandal brings in good ratingsâŚone has to wonder is this so called news reporting is just to entertain folks. Instead of reporting things that are important to people lives
I would love for once when one of these ânon-scandalsâ happens that the Democratic Party as a wholeâs response would be â(shrug) whateverâŚâ And watch the whole Right Wing and the MSMâs heads explode as the Democratic Party for once doesnât play their game.
What appearances of impropriety? Bill Clinton is a private citizen, so any âpowerâ he may have, real or imagined, isnât going to sway Ms. Lynch unless you already do not trust Ms. Lynch and feel sheâs not a legitimate AG, in which case, nothing Bill or she could have done, or not done, would have changed the narrative. The mere fact they were at the same airport the same day would have given the right wing their 4 hour erection and like the lickspittles they are, the NYT, AP and every other media outlet lined up to repeat the âClinton talking points of the dayâ. This is a non-story, every aspect of it is a non-story and there is no impropriety, apparent or not.
Report out now Hillary to meet with the fbi tomorrowâŚon another note she needs to find a way to neutralize bill till after the election
This isnât an unforced error, itâs another unforced round of CDS.
Everything isnât political or some deep nefarious scheme or plot. The Clintons are people and they have friends and acquaintances, like we do.
Yes, they are way more well known but donât hold the fact that their political enemies always try to make something out of nothing against them.
Screw the right and all of their hateful ways. Iâm siding with the Clintons for all kinds of reasons but one is, just because I wonât ever give the conspiracy theorists and followers of that horseshit the sweat off of my behind.
Keep dreaming.
At best at some point in the far future there will be a Sternly Worded Letter⢠long after everyone has forgotten it.
First, Bill Clinton needs a minder, someone to tell him DONâT DO THAT! He is very entitled in some ways. Second, Dems are so damn apologetic and nice and honest. Lynch could have met with a Clinton secretly anyway, but the GOP jumped all over this and she, instead of just saying, âNothing inappropriate happened,â apologizes. Should she have? Will this add fuel to the CT buffs at the GOP? Would a crisp âDonât be ridiculousâ denial have worked better?
Finally, Hillary must be really pissed at Bill. He just canât stay out of her way, can he. NOT HELPING, Bill. Keep EVERYTHING zipped.
The unforced error isnât the âmeetingâ between Clinton and Lynch. The unforced error is the reflexively ducking and covering.
My fondest dream is a world in which Democrats give as little of a shit about their non-scandals as Republicans give about their actual scandals
Yes, why act like this was a big deal. It wasnât, it isnât. Donât tell the GOP that thereâs probably fire when thereâs not even smoke.
But we all know how this thing is played one set of rules for dems and another set for the gop
we share just as much blame for it because we play by the rules the Republicans set for us.
Do you have your tinfoil cap on today?
Yeah⌠Itâs true that it was âbad opticsâ and boneheaded of Clinton to put Lynch in that position. But itâs also true that there are plenty of less conspicuous ways to talk to Lynch about the case if heâd wanted to, so this is a pretty stupid thing for the media to let the GOP turn into a scandal (though typical of them wrt the Clintons).
The right is expert at shaming the media into dropping coverage of genuine wrongdoing simply by aggressively denying the wrongdoing and ridiculing the coverage; yet Dems canât take the lesson when thereâs clearly no actual wrongdoing. In a way itâs to our credit, being fundamentally earnest types, while the modern GOPâs prime directive is simply winning, as ruthlessly as necessary. But itâs long past time for us to change our default setting from defense to offense â especially given the stakes in this election.
Why jump everytime they say scandal when there isnât one?
If a deal was being made it would have been done on Hillaryâs personal server according to Republicans, right?
