Hillary Clinton on Saturday night took a swipe at Fox News for its frequent criticism of her presidential campaign despite the fact that she lost to President Trump.
"It does strike me that in the last few days at least, Fox News seems to think that's where I live, in the White House," Clinton said at a dinner for the Human Rights Campaign held in Washington, D.C. "Because they spend a disproportionate amount of their time talking about impeaching me."
"So, look, if they want to make a trade, I'd be more than willing," she joked. "I would have much preferred to have come to the dinner tonight from a slightly closer residence."

(46,699 posts)If they know we're going to find out the election was rigged, are they trying to discredit her as a winner that deserves the White House?

(4,558 posts)As long as they keep on scapegoating her, they don't need to actually acknowledge what a horrendous mistake they made.
Ever notice when you bring up anything about the Rumpus, they never actually say anything to defend him. It's always "but Killary", or "but Bill", or "but Benghazi", or some other kind of deflection.
They have no defense at all, so they just drudge up something that in their small minds justifies what dear leader is saying or doing.

(30,613 posts)They ramped up the wacky made-up distraction machine just a few days before we found out Mueller is issuing his first indictment. They are targeting her because they know she is dangerous to them, once it becomes known how deeply they hacked the election systems.

(54,341 posts)The guy who IS in the White House--THEIR guy--is doing so badly, they are looking for ANY subject to "report" on that constitutes a distraction. North Korea and hurricane victims are last week's news, so they had no choice but to dredge up their old dependable standby, and that's Hillary. Fox Noise and their Republican masters are as dependent on Hillary as their Bogey Man as a heroin addict is on a fix.

(10,173 posts)Howard Dean compared their efforts to Communist messaging lol- I laugh but it's frightening.
Howard is very well traveled, and he and I have discussed the East German media in the past. When one channel parrots the pure party line of the party in power, it IS State TV. I saw it in East Germany. As a teenager, I saw it in Fascist Spain during the Franco era, even though by the late 60s, it was watered down considerably from what it had been ten years before. Fascist or communist, all media monopolies by extremist parties are similar. Franco's Spain to Soviet-controlled East Germany to Fox "News," they get more sophisticated as time goes on, but their goal (and therefore their message) remains similar: control, control, control.
I have LONG said that Republican propaganda mirrors Soviet tactics, and their Stalinist approach to elections only reinforces that view.

(67 posts)Here's an important point that everyone has missed: If Trump thinks that the Uranium One deal is so awful, why hasn't he done anything about it?
Hillary Clinton did not win the presidency and thus has never had the power to force Uranium One to divest its American mines. (Incidentally, those mines are small and don't deal in weapons grade uranium -- and they LACK EXPORT LICENSES, which means that none of the ore went to Russia.)
Trump DOES have the power to force divestment. He has had that power since January. Look it up. I did.
If Trump really thinks that those mines shouldn't be owned by a Russian company, he could have forced Uranium One to sell everything it owns in the U.S.
In essence, Sebastian Gorka inadvertently argued Trump is guilty of a Rosenberg-level crime and deserves execution.
