2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)Stephanopoulos GRILLS Hillary Clinton: Do You ACCEPT Report That ‘YOU BROKE State Department Rules’ [View all]
Who me?....I'm innocent.....I play by the rules just like this primary.....
George Stephanopoulos confronted Hillary Clinton this morning over whether she accepts the State Department IG reports conclusion that her private email use was not allowed [and] that you broke State Department rules.
Clinton insisted that the report vindicates her, the rules werent clarified until after she left, and she has already said it was a mistake.
Stephanopoulos challenged her on the idea that she wasnt unique in using email this way, because Colin Powell (for one) didnt have a private server. He asked if she really doesnt just accept the conclusions of the report.
Clinton said that people around the government knew what she was doing.

Ah, but Hillary isn't the president so we have to nip that possibility in the bud.

Unless they can convince the FBI they have something good and can get an immunity deal.

They are in major CYA mode now. I get it, too, because indictments are imminent.

I was expecting some replies claiming George Stephanopoulis was a right wing hack.

Agreed. They were both playing footsie with the truth. Both were nervous and agitated.

God I'm glad I "ignore" all of that. I don't even see it. It makes DU so much better that way.

I think maybe those in her inner circle who really care for her should do an intervention.

You can find them easily in ample articles or read the IG report if you are genuinely interested.

How can she say with a straight face the IG report vindicated her? My God, put a polygraph on her.

It's straight out of the Clinton playbook. Never give an inch, pretend every report exonerates them.
