In reply to the discussion: I am not a Hillary supporter, but I need to defend her. She did not lie about Trump. [View all]angrychair
(8,697 posts)Seeing certain posts about this have given me pause.
This one has too.
Watching a video clip of HRC about her statement, re-writing, reframing, it in the context of news broadcast of tRump's ignorant shit influencing Muslim opinions of Americans. That statement is even more irritating. That is not the words she used.
To me it is not about what she said, it is about how she has handled it after the fact.
tRump is a piece of crap, I could care less about him.
Dont make excuses for what she said or don't you or her reword her statement when I, as well as millions of others, heard her say it on live TV.
Don't do a teapublican Sith mind trick to rewrite your own public statements to fit your new narrative
("These are not the droids you're looking for"
I don't give a shit about an apology.
I don't give a shit what she said.
It's not about tRump.
It's not about what kind of person he is or the things he says.
Don't use a negative to excuse a negative.
As Democrats we ask more of our candidates, at least we should. We are better than any teapublican, on any day.
