(70,504 posts)... Scandal" story after a phony document was planted* to make Rather look bad. The right has unlimited money
and is not stopped by morality, laws, or ethics. Trump being stopped from stealing another Presidential election
was a first because Nixon stole it in 68 by shutting down a Vietnam Peace Deal, Reagan had HW Bush stop a deal
with Iran to let the hostages go, w got in after lots of dirty shit which included getting the SCOTUS to stop the
counting of ballots in Florida in 2000, and Trump was installed by Vlad/Russia in 2016. And now after losing the
last elections in 2020 republicans across the country are working to make voting and elections meaningless.
The right went after Dan Rather because he reported the truth (Vietnam& Nixon/Watergate)and they just couldn't
have that.
* See Karl Rove.
