She was right. Say it. Day 2

"The Russians did not make Hillary Clinton the worst candidate in modern presidential history."

Assertion by the newly-independent former politician Mr. Scarborough after a helpful start by the aptly-named former journalist Barnicle the day after solid evidence emerged concerning a conspiracy to cheat the first woman nominated to the presidency by a major party out of a free and fair election

Silence = complicity

1. Are they saying she WAS the worst candidate? Because if they are, that would make them assholes.

2. No mention she got 3 million more votes despite being undermined on all fronts

Quite a display of inaccurate anti-Hillary hyperbole by Barnicle and Scarborough, while Mika sat there silently.

3. She did it to herself.

They've got their narrative, and they're sticking to it.

5. "There was another big story yesterday," Mika simpered

as she cued a clip of their joint appearance on Colbert last night.

Because something about her boyfriend's party affiliation is a really, really big and important story. It's about them!

4. When Joe and Bogus Mike started on Hillary's "shortcomings" I

turned the channel. They feel an obligation to trash her at various intervals.

6. They're pissed that HRC didn't beat trump in the EC.

I know that sounds absurd, but JoeMika didn't want trump to win. I bet Joe voted for Evan McMullin. Joe said he couldn't vote for Trump multiple times. Not sure about Mika.

They are pissed that the HRC campaign wasn't as well-run as previous D campaigns, like BHO's and WJC's so that she won a clear victory in the EC as well as popular vote. Joe couldn't bring himself to vote for HRC, I bet, but he know her presidency would have been better for the nation.

They are unwilling to concede the possibility that the voting machines or machines that total votes might have been hacked, either by russian operatives or laid open for Republican operatives to manipulate. They can't do that unless and until the IC confirms that trump cheated.

So they are blaming her loss on her campaign. If it had been a perfect campaign, it still would be blamed by them because they don't have the legal basis yet to declare she was cheated. They can't blast Trump without reserving some for HRC.

7. They prefer to continue blaming HRC while not admitting their role in elevating Trump

These media pundits have no genuine credibility when they are so unwilling to admit any responsibility for their own roles in swaying public opinion by normalizing and helping Trump while constantly criticizing her.
