Watch how this smiley head weakling lets this Trump Surrogate get away with the Gish Gallop Bullshit..
She got in 5 words to his every 2 words.. The worst part of this..was..
When she repeated the lie over and over concerning how the Clinton Campaign back in 2007 began the Birtherism bullshit.. I was so fucking mad that he let her slide with her comment.. especially since he wrote a paper on the subject proving it was a lie but nevertheless let it go and let her continue with her bullshit..Gish Gallop We should all freaking know by now how adept Republicans are at using this technique by now.

(44,992 posts)So unskilled. Embarrassing. I hope his colleagues
are giving him a hard time. Maybe it's a learning opportunity.
Sadly, too many journalists don't seem to have the
intellectual vigor to engage these folks. They just
get bowled over in a tsunami of deflections and distortions.
Matthews at times when he's hot and bothered can
counter this rightwing gimmick. He just stays on
point like a dog with a bone and calls bullshit without
getting diverted. I want to see more of that.
That's what journalists are supposed to do, right?
