the honeymoon ends....Breitbart slams Trump for 'broken promise' on jailing Clinton

[Grey Lemercier]

Trump's senior adviser said on Tuesday that the president-elect thinks it's time to move on and help Clinton 'heal.'

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/11/trump-clinton-investigation-kellyanne-conway-231735

President-elect Donald Trump is reneging on his promise to jail Hillary Clinton, a sharp departure from the “lock her up!” chants that Trump encouraged at his campaign rallies, immediately drawing the ire of some conservatives.

Breitbart News, the alt-right news organization formerly run by Steve Bannon, Trump's chief strategist, headlined the lead story on its home page “BROKEN PROMISE.”



And Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog agency that sued to get more of Clinton’s State Department emails released, urged Trump on Tuesday to “commit his administration” to investigating Clinton, while promising to continue its own litigation and investigations to help uncover possible scandals.

For Trump to refuse to do so “would be a betrayal of his promise to the American people to ‘drain the swamp’ of out-of-control corruption in Washington, DC,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton warned in a statement. “President-elect Trump should focus on healing the broken justice system, affirm the rule of law and appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the Clinton scandals.”

I hope these monsters rip themselves apart and crush the little dreams of wickedness and hate of their fuckall scum voters/followers

a million white nationalist tears sobbed into a pillow of lies fobbed unto them and their bitter unfulfilled delusions of grandeur

1. It's sad when people realize they've been played, isn't it? And they've ALL been played.

Bannon used Breitbart as a way up. Trump used his followers as mere stepping stones to power. Everyone loves to think they're special, they won't be treated like all the others. Hillary said it over and over and over and over..."When someone shows you who they are..."

[lonestarnot]

39. Not sad to me. Rather infuriates me that people let themselves be so fucking ignorant.

[KingCharlemagne]

58. Hillary was citing the poet Maya Angelou, IIRC - nt

[nolabear]

59. I know. I should have given credit.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. I've always said the Trump campaign was nothing but a huge con.

He isn't even waiting until he takes office to break his promises. How long will it take the basket of deplorables and the other poor fools who voted for him to realize that they've been had, bigly?

[RKP5637]

28. Yep, been saying it all along, they were used as loser stooges to support his way into office, but

they are just too F'en stupid and biased to get what's going on ... and probably never will understand it.

[thegoose]

62. Absolutely.

And this orange piece of shit doesn't care if the world blows up as long as he gets his billions in ill-gotten gains.

[guillaumeb]

3. So the liars at Breitbart are shocked that Trump lied to them?

Worthy of the Onion.

[GoCubsGo]

4. Well, that didn't take long.

How many times will this happen before they actually give up on him, though? For now, they will probably stamp their feet, whine, complain, and go right back to shilling for him.

[ailsagirl]

42. That's almost what I was going to post

I was going to say, "That was fast!"

same thing

[Zambero]

5. Red meat starts to smell after a while

The "lock her up" crowd is still holding bags full of red meat collected from tweets, rallies, debates, and more. And as the fake news stories from the Trump campaign were summarily cooked up on a daily basis, the rotting flesh itself remains in the bag with no prospect of being served up in a celebratory "incarceration feast". Indeed, if there is a prison cell that needs to be reserved and warmed up, it would be richly deserved by the proclaimed winner of this contest.

[Vinca]

6. LOL - unlikely they'll be seeing their wall, either.

To Don the Con it was all just another scheme.

[Nay]

60. Won't see their well-paying jobs, either. nt

[whathehell]

7. Poor widdle fascists..

[Sunny05]

8. This is bannon's way of ...

This is bannon's way of putting pressure on trump -- putting pressure on orange one through a backlash from the breitbart followers. I hope it does not work for bannon. I hope it means honeymoon over.

I also hope it is sign of a wedge driven between different people trying to help trump.

If trump leans toward bannon and the breitbart freaks, then ryan and company will be more likely to "allow" an impeachment to happen. Then government would have pence, priebus, ryan running things even more fully, more overtly, but still ... trump impeachment needs to happen. Besides, many people for trump hate ryan and other establishment types. So if trump goes down, may help ryan/etc. only in short run.

If trump leans toward ryan/priebus/etc., well, he may be in office longer but breitbart faction and their overtly white supremacist nutcases do not win. That's good. But then ... who knows, maybe trump followers who hate establishment will then abandon trump.

* * *
I just hope they all go down.

[uponit7771]

13. 1

[SeattleVet]

17. How long before Bannon gets the boot...

for not being loyal enough for tRump's massive narcissism to stand it?

[Sunny05]

49. Good Q ...

My God, what a drama -- plus a no-win/no-win situation for almost all involved.

Hoo boy. Take care.

[randr]

9. Trump owns the swamp

And knows damn well that there is no there in re to Clinton.
He has already committed more prosecutable crimes and he has not even been installed as President.

[lonestarnot]

40. He is the fucking swamp.

[AgadorSparticus]

10. There will be more crazy promises to be broken. Is anyone really surprised?

Most of his promises will be watered down because of... reality.

[WinstonSmith4740]

11. Well, well, well...who'd have guessed Trump lied.

First of all, followed the link and went to Breitbart. Ew-w-w-w. I feel like I need a shower. Secondly, the whining and excuse making is epic. These idiots really think Herr Drumpf has their best interests at heart and just needs time. They will tear themselves, and eventually him, to shreds. They expected blood, and are now being told to be patient, and by not locking Hillary up, it's helping "heal". I'm getting a warm, fuzzy feeling here folks. I honestly don't know if any of them are smart enough to realize how badly they've been played, but I'm expecting to see pitchforks soon. As a rule, white supremacists don't have a long fuse. This might just get real good.

[TwilightZone]

12. Anyone with half a brain should have known it was never going to happen.

Whoops, that eliminates Breitbart. Never mind.

[spanone]

14. they've yet to see 'out-of-control corruption in Washington, DC.'

trump has already started to raise the bar

[ExtraGriz]

15. This is a threat for Hillary and her supporters to STFU

"It's time to move on and help Clinton 'heal.'.....WTF? this is nothing more than a thinly disguised threat for Clinton and her supporters to shut up...or else.

Heal from a massive 2,000,000+ popular vote over the other candidate? Heal from what? Seriously, trump needs to put down that silver spoon...sniff, sniff, sniff.

Madame President!!!!

[bucolic_frolic]

16. Number of deplorables bagging a European Beauty Queen Wife after this election

ZERO

but they sure can talk trash

[7962]

18. They're really gonna be ticked when he doesnt build that wall either!

I told my friends that exactly this would happen
he told them from the start; "I'm a dealmaker"
Well, he's makin' deals

[workinclasszero]

30. Ikr?

[roamer65]

19. There is gonna be a lot more broken promises, Nazi scum. N/t

[JHan]

20. Tom Fitton is a disgrace.

He wants Trump to drain the swamp but turns a blind eye to Trump's own corruption thus far? And conflicts of interest?


Conservatism is morally bankrupt.

[bluedigger]

21. Time was, Breitbart was an unacceptable source at DU.

Nowadays, it's necessary to understanding the ruling viewpoint in our national politics.

[Grey Lemercier]

27. it not the source, it is the subject

[rgbecker]

22. And the Wall!?!?!? What about the wall?

Not even mentioned in his 100 day plans.

Oh, Ryan and McConnell don't want to pay for it. Won't even bring it up.

[SummerSnow]

23. Buyers remorse?

They say when the narcissist mouth is moving he is lying.

[CrispyQ]

24. There's a reason so many of us always call him Don the Con.

Even though I like Cheeto the best.

[wisteria]

25. Fake drama, to throw people off the trail.

[FarPoint]

26. It's just more bait....

They love to keep us off the real issues. They know damn well there was NEVER any criminal causality...ever...So did the dumb ass media.

[Grey Lemercier]

31. the sick thing is, that almost uniformly across the RWers boards they think this is Trump playing

8 dimensional chess by taking away an Obama pardon (wtf), that the Foundation is what will ultimately get her "locked up", and that Congress will investigate it for 4 years to ensure she is "locked up".

They are fucking delusional.

[radius777]

46. their irrational fear of the Clintons, who they

are obsessed with, for beating them at its own game and derailing the 'conservative revolution', which was at its height in the 90's.

[BeyondGeography]

29. The promise of cruelty was a great motivator

Don't worry, Trumpkins. There's still a lot of powerless nonwhites he can shit on. The smarter ones among you know there's nothing he will do to materially improve your lives, right?

[Grey Lemercier]

32. facist racist fuckers dont care if the RW takes all but their last dollar, as long as the "gays",

women, and "minorities" have zero dollars.

[Adsos Letter]

33. Maskirovka n/t

[TheCowsCameHome]

34. Oh, dear. Do the brain-dead lemmings feel betrayed?

Well, that's just tough, isn't it?

Wait until he backpedals on the wall.

[Blanks]

35. Lindsey Graham was upset too...

I just happened to catch it on the morning news. He thinks Trump should pursue it.

Some republicans are obsessed with the Clintons.

[Different Drummer]

36. My response to Breitbart's slam on Trump

[kentuck]

37. They are working as a team.

They are on the same page.

[uponit7771]

38. Yeap, they want to give the impression of some type of separation

[mdbl]

41. the headline should read 'Broken Brains"

because that is what they have.

[mountain grammy]

43. I don't trust that fascist fucker for a second

he'll persecute, oops, prosecute her first chance he gets. We are entering into an era of evilness we've never seen before.

[Initech]

44. Fuck you Breitbart!!!!!

[Solly Mack]

45. I don't buy it.

[radius777]

47. does anyone believe right-wingers care about ethics?

they just got finished voting for a man in Trump is basically is the leader of a global criminal syndicate, a racketeer, a tax cheat, been sued 4000 times, stiffs workers/contractors, and is basically as corrupt as can be, and probably would've been in jail a llong time ago if not for his pal Rudy and other corrupt politicians and officials in letting him do whatever he wanted throughout his sleazy life.

before that they voted for a Bush/Cheney admin that lied about WMD, led us into a war that is costing 10trillion dollars, led to ISIS, many lives lost/destruction, trashed the economy.

the real reason they hate the Clintons is because the Clintons beat the right-wing at its own game, and managed to derail the 'conservative revolution' in the 90's when it was at its height. the Clintons weren't the typical overly-ethical wimpy Dems of the time like Mondale/Dukakis who played the game too nice and would get stomped on.

[Orsino]

48. Dumbasses who supported Trump for his pledges...

...without realizing that he breaks every promise are the classic low-information voters. He says whatever he thinks he'd like to be heard saying at a given moment, and then he says other things. It's always been the job of underlings/handlers to try to guess what will please him.

The word "promise" doesn't have much meaning in his world. He's full of wild stories about things he's always about to do, but never does. The trouble is, we've elevated him to a position from which he can appoint people who do have some sort of work ethic, and who will use his license to accomplish what they were going to do anyway.

[Baitball Blogger]

50. The more this election seems hacked, the more this move appears strategic.

Briebart's people are going to be pissed that they couldn't take this step.

[SHRED]

51. Just a smokescreen

To make Breitbart appear balanced and appease their rabid readers.

[get the red out]

52. Dammit

Now I am hungry for popcorn and I just ate lunch.

[SammyWinstonJack]

53. Are they so sure tRump won't change his mind again, I mean who would

trust anything out of his lie hole?

Does he even have the authority to do that?

[Tiggeroshii]

54. The Trump administration is basically Breitbart...

So they are "slamming" themselves?

[Unrepentant Fenian]

55. Haha... That's all I got.

[pbmus]

56. He is just marching to his Trumpster orders...

Feed the base and only when I say feed the base....

[JNelson6563]

57. This will be good.

I know it's hard to see any bright spots but, as history shows, when a group has all the power they soon fight among themselves and fuck everything up. Just wait.

[Yonnie3]

61. Let's contribute for a divorce lawyer.

Honeymoon over? I'd rather a divorce happen. If we can facilitate a messy divorce the media will follow it. Nasty stuff comes out in divorce proceedings. It would be nice to have it continue until the mid-terms.

Anything that reduces the RWNJs influence on the Hubric Cheeto is fine with me.
