In reply to the discussion: CNN Host Calls Senior Trump Aide Out On Plagiarized Speech: ‘You’re Lying’ [View all]King_Klonopin
(1,307 posts)55. I saw this reference to "denial" in the face of conflict (or confrontation, as I would put it)
and just previously I had seen a post referring to Nixon. Then it hit me...

Denial.
Paranoia.
Incompetence.
Insecurity.
Pettiness.
Revenge.
Secrecy.
Obfuscation.
Dirty Tricks Dept.
Disgrace.
God help us avoid repeating history!
They trotted out a woman who blamed Hillary Clinton -- personally --
for the death of her son. That it beyond the pale of decency and violates
all unspoken rules pertaining to conventions, i.e. one does not use the
death of a fallen soldier as a political prop. DISGUSTING GOP VERMIN !
