Ex-Clinton aide: Trump ‘very insecure’ about legitimacy (more "serious but unverified" fake news)
The Hill ^ | 2017-01-13 | MARK HENSCH

A former top Hillary Clinton aide says President-elect Donald Trump is worried about his legitimacy.

“I think Donald Trump is trying to cling to whatever legitimacy is still in effect here,” Brian Fallon, Clinton's former press secretary, said Friday on CNN’s “New Day."

Fallon called Trump's critical tweets about Clinton earlier Friday "just the latest indication that Donald Trump is someone who’s very insecure in his victory. And I understand why.”

“Every day there are new developments, new shoes dropping, so to speak, that call into question the legitimacy of his win," he said. Fallon pointed particularly to intelligence reports about Russian interference in the presidential election, as well as questions about how public announcements by FBI Director James Comey's affected the result.

Trump earlier Friday tweeted that the FBI had been more than fair to Clinton.

Het Brian, how about the Soros manufactured voting machines used in sixteen states and the complaints that these voting machines flipped Trump votes to Hitlery?

How about the millions of illegal alien votes in California and other states, all voting for Pickles Clinton? How are those votes “legitimate,” Brian?

And what about all the RATS that voted multiple times during early voting, registering in the names of deceased people, and celebrities?

Take that, Brian Fallon, you moonbat moron.

Trumped was most likely robbed of the popular vote by RAT cheating and half a dozen state’s electoral votes.

It is absolutely amazing to me how the liberals are reacting. People that I know and always thought were fairly normal if somewhat misguided. OMG! They are totally over the cliff, approaching mach 1. I am truly glad that they don’t have guns. I am purposely staying away from them. I think they are dangerous. These are middle aged white women.

It is not whether the charge is true or not it is the seriousness of the charge that must be responded to.*

Actually it was Tom Foley who said it first.

“We have no conclusive evidence of wrongdoing, but the seriousness of the allegations, and the weight of circumstantial information, compel an effort to establish the facts.”

Opinion as news. No facts.

Well, if there is no news, we will make it up.

Just like we did with the polls.

If there’s one thing Donald Trump doesn’t feel it’s “insecure”. That man has self-confidence like no other and he’s right to feel that way. Dream on Fallon and screw you!

I’m so sick of these a-holes. They can’t even manage to be subtle as they disseminate their stupid talking points like wind-up toy monkeys over and over again.

“Trump’s presidency is illegitimate. Trump’s presidency is illegitimate...” Repeat ad nauseum.

Trump won a resounding victory in spite of a biased media that would have made Goebbels blush and rampant illegal alien voting and other fraud. Are we supposed to believe that the Russians are also responsible for the Republican majorities in the House and Senate and all the gubernatorial seats the Republicans took?

These arrogant pricks will all find out who is legitimate soon enough.

They will never give up. They will work to undermine him for his entire term and beyond.

If I were the Democrats (or NeverTrumpers) I would spend less time gratuitously poking the bear to no possible benefit.

I, for one, would not want Donald Trump angry at me once he wields the full coercive power of the state next week. Just saying....

On CNN! You know, the CREDIBLE network that proved that Donald Trump killed Harambe and ate 5-year-old baby boy poo in Russa! And for such an ally (like a Clinton aids) to make this charge, well, it's ONE HUNDRED PERCENT TRUE!!!

Morons.

Trump is one heck of a lot more legitimate than the Kenyanesian Usurper ever was.

Born a British subject, adopted and made an Indonesian citizen, educated in a madrassa, never set foot on the mainland of the USA until college.

Yeah, sure he is a natural born citizen, so is Winston Churchill and the recently deceased King of Thailand.

THE HILL is largely click bait and when it's not, it's no more newsworthy than the tabloids located at the check-out lines in supermarkets.

Why would he care about “shoes dropping” when he knows they’re lies?

I would be willing to say Trump may be the most confident person on this planet.

I think Obama is terrified that Trump will be a better president.
