Clinton’s ‘Alt-Right’ speech signals shift as DNC orders media to find proof of the ‘Trump-effect’
Canada Free Press ^ | 08/27/16 | Marc Patrone

Trump wants her to come out and fight because that’s when she becomes vulnerable. Now, get ready for the counter-punch

With her ‘alt-right’ conspiracy speech in Reno, Hillary Clinton has served notice she’s ditching her ‘run-out-the-clock’ strategy’ in favor of smearing Donald Trump and his core of ‘radical’ followers as dark, dangerous bigots. The question is why the change in tactics. Just this week, the Politico quoted Clinton insiders as saying “they can ride out” the latest email and Clinton Foundation controversy by running out the clock until the election. They see the poll numbers and have decided it’s over. All she has to do is stay under the radar as much as possible, make no mistakes, and let her media PR department destroy Trump. So what happened?

In her Reno speech Clinton said Trump is “taking hate groups mainstream and helping a radical fringe take over the Republican Party.” Hello Breitbart, Drudge, Alex Jones etc. Liberal reporters will take her attack on ‘fringe’ alternative conservative media as their cue to produce stories that validate Clinton’s warnings about the ‘Trump effect’.

The “Trump Effect” is the sane masses of this country are sick of the likes of a Clinton, an Obama, any Democrat - or a GOPe RINO for that matter. The truth is that they are shit, up with which we shall no longer put.

I agree, Trump successfully smoked her out.

It’s obvious Trump play for the Black American vote is starting to pay off and alarmed Hillary enough to force her to abandon the hide and wait it out strategy.

This is exactly what Trump wanted. A FIGHT with Clinton over the Black American vote. Trump has nothing to lose by fighting this fight and everything to win.

She cited some nonsense stats about Trump’s business past. Trying to paint him as racist.

Anyone with good knowledge on the subject would debunk i completely.

I know it wasn’t true, but I dont know facts to counter what she said.

Good thing no one’s asking me and I’m relatively unimportant :)

I had never heard of the “alt-right” until the other day, when I heard news people saying Hillary would give a speech about them.

So what’s really going on here? Liberals are creating an enemy, this “alt right”? They create this scary enemy group, which is supposed to scare us to death, then tell us that Donald Trump is part of this scary enemy group?? What the heck???

Well, let’s have that fight for the black vote.

Let’s have that debate.

How well have black Americans done, under the policies of Democrat administrations?? How well have black Americans done in some of our big cities, which have been run by Democrats for generations??? Let’s have that debate.

“Alt Right”? What is that, some kind of keyboard shortcut? Speaking of which, the real threat to our liberty these days is coming from the CTRL-ALT-LEFT!

I highly recommend listening to yesterday’s (8/26) broadcast of TruNews, available free on their website. The Clinton campaign is now exactly duplicating Lyndon Johnson’s 1964 campaign against Barry Goldwater. The ad with the Klan guys saying why they support Trump is an almost word-for-word duplicate of an add Johnson ran against Goldwater.

Unfortunately this mendacious crap worked against Barry Goldwater. I don’t think it’s going to make a dent against Trump.

It’s been around a while. We have been getting attacked by the GOP from that angle.

Here is Paul Ryan agreeing with the “alt right” smear in a local radio interview during his primary:

Ryan said Nehlen’s campaign is an “out of state campaign” that was “mouthing these kinds of screeds,” comparing it to the same type of campaign used to unsuccessfully recall Gov. Scott Walker.

“They are not pushing conservatism, they call this ‘alt-conservatism’ — I don’t even know what this … have you heard of this alt-conservatism?” he asked Weber.

“I have, and it’s just goofy and it’s tied into, often times, like white supremacists groups and fringe groups, it’s really a nasty virulent strain of something, it’s not conservatism,” Weber replied.

“That’s right,” Ryan continued. “It’s a nasty virulent strain of something, I don’t even know what it is other than it isn’t us, it isn’t what we believe in. And it’s not what the Constitution says and it’s not what conservatives, particularly Wisconsin conservatives, believe in.”

They want to destroy Leslie Jones: Harassment targeting “Ghostbusters” star exposes the ugliness driving the new right

The attacks against Jones lay bare the resentments fueling what is euphemistically known as the “alt-right”

Now politicians will use the “Alt-Right” moniker to attack anyone who disagrees with them.

It is Hillary and the liberals projecting themselves unto Donald J. Trump and those who support him.

Only started hearing about this "Alt-Right" business last week or so... the DNC, "create a crisis of sympathy (or antipathy)" is at it again. Is there even, yet a working definition of what this is supposed to mean, and how afraid we are supposed to be of it. Cheese-Louise these people are getting desperate!

Anyone who disagrees with the progressive agenda. The reason the Dems went with this meme is there are going to get support from the progressive wing of the GOP. Paul Ryan, Susan Collins, etc. It’s pure Alinsky. Isolate the target. Attack, etc.
