Trump and the "But what about Hillary?" defense.

[deanrd]

Trump used the "What about Hillary (and Bill)" in the Tweet attacking Gilibrand.

I guess a really good "But what about .............?" is never really wasted. Just recycled.

 

[rightwinger]

What about Hillary will work forever with his lemmings, they use the same thing on here all the time.

Hillary has been known as a liar long before Trump came on the scene.

but, lets ignore that, m'kay?

Hillary lied three times

Trump lies incessantly

 

[rightwinger]

Hillary testified under oath before Congress for 11 hours

When can we expect to see Trump?

 

[Harry Dresden]

Trump doesn’t need a defense, he is not guilty of any crime. He is correctly pointing out the disparity between how the media and the law is different for Democrats than for Republicans.

Flynn is accused of lying to the FBI, and has been indicted. Hillary lied to the FBI dozens of times and no indictments.

Trump is as always, correct.

he is always correct?....if you say so pred....

It's not just Trump. Every right winger I know does the same thing. They can't just stick to one subject. As soon as you ask something they can't answer, they go to Hillary, or Nancy Pelosi, or gender,or a combination of all three and everything else they can think of. Listen to Hannity sometime. He does the same thing. Constantly jumping from one thing to another just to confuse the subject.

die hards on both sides do that....

 

[rightwinger]

When will Trump testify like the Clintons did?

Just because right wingers say she’s lying, doesn’t mean it’s true. This is the classic case of a lie told often enough becomes the truth.

Back when Bill was President and the one of the early investigations found nothing against Hillary, of the Republican Senators fumed “That’s because she’s lying. It’s what she does. She lies and lies and lies”, and it stuck. Despite all reasonable evidence to the contrary.

No one accused Bill Clinton of rape until Ken Starr threatened Anita Broaddrick with perjury charges if she didn’t recant her Affidavit. Starr had no evidence that she was lying but he leveraged his attack on Broaddrick giving her immunity on perjury charges is she recanted. Jail time if she didn’t. She complied.

Now you right wingers all post that Bill Clinton is a serial rapist, despite the fact that not one woman has ever claimed he raped her, except Broaddrick who only did so under duress.

A lie told often enough becomes the truth.

I'm watching the news and Trump is asked whether he knew Flynn had lied to the FBI.

The first words out of Trump's mouth were "What about Hillary?"

Then he said that Flynn lies and his career is ruined but Hillary lies and "nothing".

So what is he talking about? What did she lie about? Denying ridiculous GOP conspiracies isn't the same as lying.

The FBI didn't accuse her of lying.

How much longer does he think he can get away with "But what about Hillary"? It's not working.

So if you are going to say what about Hillary, then what about Hillary? Give us the "what".

What about Hillary? She was a baggage heavy flawed candidate that the American people rejected for President. That's what's about Hillary. She's a loser.

Never: because she's a loser but he's a winner. You don't have to testify to Congress when you're prez. They wish they had to!

Defense?

They can't just stick to one subject. As soon as you ask something they can't answer, they go to Hillary, or Nancy Pelosi,

and 8 years ago, the deflection was to Bush, or Cheney, etc.


Need a ladder to get down from your high horse?

Bush or Cheney were only brought up in the context of the discussion. Not just as some unrelated dodge.

Maybe you don't understand the discussion and mistake it for a dodge.

Hillary's lies are well documented, you just don't want to take your blinders off.
