As a Democratic presidential candidate, you know you are in tough shape when other Democrats are publicly calling your actions as Secretary of State worse than Watergate.
Appearing on Breitbart News on Sirius XM, pollster and strategist former President Jimmy Carter, Pat Caddell, told host Stephen Bannon, just that.
“This is the greatest scandal in the history of the United States,” he said. “They all ought to be indicted. This is worse than Watergate.”
If you are unfamiliar with Watergate, it is probably the most infamous scandal that is attributed to President Richard Nixon, and caused the former president to resign from office in disgrace. It began when men broke into the headquarters of the Democratic National Party at the Watergate Complex.
They were caught in the act of trying to wire tap the phone lines of Democratic officials, and investigators were able to tie the group to the Republican Party. The attempt was to spy on the political enemies of the administration. Nixon, who is believed to have had nothing to do with the break-in ordered the subsequent cover up, and the command was recorded on listening devices that he had had installed in the Oval Office.
The FBI demanded access to those tapes, but Nixon blocked the attempts to have the tapes from being handed over, sort of like Hillary Clinton when she was trying to destroy evidence that could implicate her of wrongdoing.
Nixon, though he was not indicted of any charges, was deemed a co-conspirator of Watergate, and stepped down.
Hillary Clinton, after breaking the law by sending top secret information over a personal server that was against the rules to be using in the first place as the Secretary of State, instead of apologizing to the American people or stepping down, has decided to steam roll ahead and pursue the highest office in the land.
Caddell also criticized Clinton over using the Clinton Foundation, a non-profit charity to accept donations from foreign governments, in an effort to allegedly gain favors from the then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
“They were selling out the national interests of the United States directly to adversaries and others for money.”
Poor Pat Caddell: he may be unable to vote for Mrs. Bill.
Yep.
Hillary Clinton is destroying the Democrat Party.
In five years you won’t be able to find anyone who will admit to being a Democrat.
Caddell is freakishly honest for a Dem.
yes yes YES!
and SO MUCH of Hillary’s $$$$ has come from enemy Islamonazi or nazi sources!!!
Pat Caddell... the last honest Democrat.
she should be in prison, NOT our White House!
Theodore,
There used to be hundreds of thousands of Democrats like Pat Caddell. Unfortunately, many of those people have retired or died over the last 40 years or realized the “New Democrats” are more akin to the “Old Stalinists” and have ceased to be Democrats.
ovcer $100,000,000.00 she’s taken from Islamonazi dictatorships on the Arabian Peninsula alone, in the last few months, per news cycle reports
she is bought, sold out, and paid for!
she should be in prison, not our White House!
That’s right, Dems are like Stalinists, but the American people don’t recognize Stalin, who died in 1953.
Carter was definitely incompetent and inept, but never thought of him as a crook.
Pat is a guy who was all over Bill Clinton and thought he was a criminal. He’s a good guy who tells the truth.
“Caddell is freakishly honest for a Dem.”
He is pretty old. He did not get the memo. No Alynski training.
Hillary was trained in Alynski methods from puberty on.
The difference is that no equivalent of Woodward and Bernstein will go after the Hillary story. Commentary has now turned to guns as the cause of “Orlando.”
Trump has such a plethora of Clinton scandal and criminal activity to work with.
The Clintonistas don’t believe it or don’t care. Many others in the public are inexplicably neutral.
Trump is probably the world’s greatest salesman. Can he do the job in selling the truth?
Watergate was about democrats getting payback on Nixon for being so anti-communist. Once they got him out of the way, they were able to get cut off funding to South Vietnam and Cambodia and allow their allies the communists to win, and murder millions of people in re-education camps and the Killing Fields.
Your post is right on the money.
He is one of the “Washington Insiders” on the show hosted by Harris Faulkner on Sunday afternoons. It has become one of my favorite Fox programs, mainly because of him—and Harris Faulkner.
Watergate? What was “watergate” — NOTHING!!
Today’s MSM, to the danger of this country and its future, is making a good case for not having the Freedom of the Press.
