Hillary Clinton Fires Back at Trump Claims She Colluded: You Asked Russia to Hack Me on National Television
by Amy Russo | Oct 11th, 2018, 5:29 pm
After President Donald Trump accused Hillary Clinton of colluding with Russians to sabotage the 2016 election during his Pennsylvania rally, the former first lady defended herself using his favorite medium.
Seriously, you asked Russia to hack me on national television, Clinton tweeted Thursday afternoon, less than 24 hours following the commander in chiefs speech the night before. Her post was in reference to an NBC News article recapping Trumps unsubstantiated claims.

Without evidence, Trump not only accused Clinton of engaging in a conspiracy, but her party as well.
There was collusion between Hillary, the Democrats and Russia, he told the crowd, which had again wheeled out its signature lock her up chant.

(18,628 posts)Since Trump consistanly fights in the court of public opinion, it's about time to smack back at his bullshit claims.
It's now a pattern with him to make unsubstantiated claims and let the people decide if it's true. He usually modifies these claims with "everybody knows" as in Obama's birth certificate.. Another good example is how he handles accusations by women or the New York Times where he claims he's going to sue, then does nothing. That leaves supporters to assume there's a suit pending in court that Trump will win.
It doesn't matter to him if he tells the truth, only what the public thinks is true. It's time to fight back... loudly.

(252 posts)EXACTLY. I've been saying this since cheney called the dems cowards and all sorts of other disparaging names which I gave back BUT the mods here said..'we got to be civil.' 'we cant sink to their level'...etc, ad nauseum and banned me...actions like this on the part of the greater democrat party gave rise to frustration and the notion the dems have no spine...and now, with the kind of supporters trump has, (rwnj's) its time to get in the mud with these pigs and get dirty...the lie not countered eventually becomes truth...

(49,002 posts)The tRump-RubleCon Party narrative is based on the fact that the Democratic Party commissioned a law firm to do opposition research and they hired Fusion GPS to do it, after F-GPS had done some oppo research for a Republicon candidate against tRump. At some point Fusion GPS hired Christopher Steele to prepare a dossier on tRump. There were FISA warrants tapping some communications in the Trump Tower that predated the dossier, but the dossier may have been used to extend those warrants.
So the tRump-RubleCons spin that up into "Hillary colluded with the Russians", despite that the facts are otherwise and ignoring that tRump publicly colluded, as Hillary called him out on today, in addition to private collusion.

(4,341 posts)They would used them in a context where anyone who reads it will know the fucker is lying, and would repeat the fact that he was the one asking and conspiring with Russians to find Hillary's emails. The first question is, HOW DID HE KNOW RUSSIA HAD THOSE EMAILS? or HOW DID HE KNOW RUSSIA WAS LOOKING FOR THEM?
