Or it just could have been that the media were massive whores that thought Trump drove add revenue? And can we agree that “the” media likes a race and a showdown?
No doubt though that both the FBI and Russian meddling put a thumb on the scale for Trump. Whether it swung the election no one will ever be able to say clearly, but it would be nice if there was some tacit acknowledgement of that (or at least a real bi partisan investigation to air this in public one way or the other) instead of claiming an overwhelming mandate to do a 180 on environmentalism, China policy, education, nuclear prolification, ad nauseum. Thanks for playing.
And of course all of the people on the left rooting and voting for Trump and urging him to run because they were sure that there was no way Hillary could possibly lose to him.
Appears that what we have so far is a Hillary campaign functionary floating an idea. Where is the e-mail saying “Wow, what a great idea, lets get right on this!”? If this was to be the game plan, they would have discussed it some, I would imagine. Usually, it matters this complex with lots of input from different sources, that tends to happen.
And when, perzackly, did you guys decide that Wikileaks was the Gospel? Bet you’d love to have the RNC stuff released, so you could bask in the wisdom and probity displayed, how the honesty and candor of the Republican Party shines by comparison to tired corrupt ol’ Hillary? Darn shame about that, huh?
And Brer Bob? “Rooting and voting for Trump”? Who on the left was in a position to vote for Trump? Are you going to put forth a fever-swamp conspiracy, lefties infiltrating the Republican primaries to push for Trump? Will this fairy tale have wizards and dragons? I like those.
And you offer us John Oliver as a citation? I have this gnawing fear that you are not kidding.
It’s really unremarkable and mundane that Democrats wanted to go against don the con. We all know why and it did make sense. It was the game of politics being played. This is the fulcrum around which you are twisting yourself now?
The right owns the con man. You couldn’t help yourselves and now you have a perfect figurehead who can’t control himself.
Twisting myself around? I didn’t vote for The Donald. The question was are you all on the left happy now? I for one said be careful what you wish for about a year ago because you just might get it. Be careful with the games you play.
Yes, which is why they put it on “the agenda for tomorrow morning’s 8:00 AM ET Strategy Call.” Which you would know if you actually bothered to look at the evidence.
April 5, 2010. Unlike some people, I didn’t forget Wikileaks’ good work just because Obama decided whistleblowers were public enemy #1.
Are you? Well, then, given your solid reputation for non-partisan candor, the only question which remains is your expertise. Perhaps you could address that.
Its “on the agenda”. Is it the agenda? Or is it one of any number of items “on the agenda”?
I have committed any number of good works, some of them intentionally. My nomination for sainthood is ignored, nonetheless.
I approve of Wikileaks in the sense that things are put forth to be investigated. Some of them are bound to be bullshit, we are supposed to be smart enough to discover the difference.
Aw, isn’t that nice? Whaddaya know, turns out Putin is a genuine sweetheart, after all, just misunderstood! Yessir, nothin’ but blue skies and sunshine ahead!
I’d take Trump over Cruz in a heartbeat. Trump is going to ultimately be the death of the current iteration of the GOP. Just hope it doesn’t end up bringing everyone else down with it.
That was not an evasion. That was me pointing out that I had already answered it and that you are not acting in good faith here.
I am not your babysitter. If you’re not willing to admit to reading a cite that clearly states that there were three items on the agenda (“1. Clinton Cash update; 2. DNC plan (see attached memo); 3. Phones / Pool plan”) that is your fault, not mine.
Well, OK, so why did you make it like pulling teeth? Maybe I’m just overly suspicious, but if you make it look like you are hiding something, I’m gonna think you’re hiding something.
