‘I Was Just Joking’: Media Apoplectic as Khizr Khan Attack on Donald Trump Goes Down in Flames

[bripat9643]

Before the internet the Dims would have gotten away with their attempt to smear Trump, but now the major networks can't stifle embarrassing facts. This episode may just further cement Hillary's reputation for being sleazy and dishonest.

Khizr Khan Attack on Donald Trump Goes Down in Flames​

....Over the weekend and for the past few days since Khan spoke alongside his wife Ghazala Khan about their son, U.S. Army Captain Humayun Khan, who was killed in Iraq in 2004, media-wide reporters, editors, producers, and anchors have tried to lay criticism on Trump over the matter. They thought they had a good one, a specific line of attack that pitted Trump against the military—and supposedly showed him as a big meanie racist in the process.

But, as Breitbart News showed on Monday midday, that clearly was not the case. Khizr Khan has all sorts of financial, legal, and political connections to the Clintons through his old law firm, the mega-D.C. firm Hogan Lovells LLP. That firm did Hillary Clinton’s taxes for years, starting when Khan still worked there involved in, according to his own website, matters “firm wide”—back in 2004. It also has represented, for years, the government of Saudi Arabia in the United States. Saudi Arabia, of course, is a Clinton Foundation donor which—along with the mega-bundlers of thousands upon thousands in political donations to both of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaigns in 2008 and 2016—plays right into the “Clinton Cash” narrative.​

Oh my god, you mean that Clinton was friends with the family before the convention? Well play in her panties drawer and call it a search warrant.

Sounds pretty unraveling to me.

The MSM and the lefties really do not like Breitbart. To them, if Breitbart reports on it and they do not, then it is B.S. They also have a a heck of a time avoiding the charges in their so-called refutations. Too often it ends up "get something out on Snopes, half-assed (avoiding the stickiest parts) but plausible sounding, that's our backup."

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

The attack seems to have been pretty effective to me. Hillary is back up in the polls with some pretty decent leads

 

[Old Rocks]

Sure, down in flames. LOL Half the GOP are calling for Trump to apologize to the Kahns, the other half is threatening to vote for Hillary. The VFW has released a very negative statement on Trump, as has the Gold Star Families. And a good many vets are flat stating that they will now never vote for Trump. This is the "48% moment" for Trump. From here on out I think that Trump is going to see a steady slide, and, considering that he cannot keep his idiot mouth shut, may end up giving Hillary a 400 ev vote win.

Before the internet, Trump would have never been nominated. It takes mass communication where every fruitcake can make any claim that pops into their silly head to stir up that many crazies. Trump knows that, and it's the only way he got nominated.

This was a Democratic party booby-trap and Trump stepped on it. As for this liberal hack Khan his son dying in a war 12 years ago doesn't give him a license to be a dick.

Where was he being a dick.

NaziTrump has gotten where he has gotten fear mongering against Muslims, wanting to expel Muslims from the Country, wanting to refuse admittance to women and children trying to escape war zones.

All Mr. Khan did was point out, "My son died protecting your freedoms."

Now, the smart thing would be to not talk about it. Or at worst, say "We honor Captain Khan's sacrifice, but we need to tighten up our immigration rules given ISIS's stated intent to smuggle agents into this country."

Nope. He goes after the man's family. Then he tries to equate his building tacky hotels with someone whose son was killed in a war.

The only saving grace NaziTrump has is that he has said so many fucking outrageous things- mocking a disabled reporter, saying a "Mexican' judge was unfair to him, etc.- that a lot of people have tuned it out up to this point.

But now they have to pay attention.

Nobody pays attention to Breitbart except the RW cult that would never vote for Hillary in the first place.

All Muslims and wetbacks should be deported. This country was not founded for them.

Wonder why you aren't a leading Trump advisor?

 

[Rozman]

Trump will never turn away from stepping on the land mines the Dems put out there....
He would,could,and should have a lead over the Hildebeast but he's a bit scatter brained
and easily distracted.....

His response is always....
Well they attacked me first.
I'm a counter puncher.....

Maybe the Donald wants to throw this election????

Rozman,

Are you supporting Trump?

You are basically saying there he is not qualified to be President.

 

[AceRothstein]

breitbart is the only place in the entire world that think Trump comes out looking good at the end of the Khan story. I got dizzy from all the spin in that article.

 

[Katzndogz]

The longer this goes on the more Khan looks like a mercenary that dug up his dead son to dance to the democratic piperm

Imagine THAT..and the Khan even had their son killed in combat just to help the Clintons???? Amazing loyalty.
