Paul Krugman’s Latest Clinton Defense Reaches New Low
The Observer ^ | 09/07/16 | Michael Sainato

In the wake of embarrassing emails released via Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and an even more embarrassing FBI report, Hillary Clinton supporters have responded angrily toward any concerns raised by these new releases.

An elitist dribble of condescension masquerading as a pro-Clinton Op-Ed written by economist Paul Krugman was an inevitable reaction to this negative publicity. This “Hillary or else” mentality was aggressively advocated by Krugman in Clinton’s first presidential campaign against Obama and even more so throughout the 2016 Democratic primaries. Krugman perpetuated the Bernie Bros smear campaign by alleging on several occasions that Sanders’ support stemmed from disaffected white men and also claimed Sanders supporters suffered from delusions for criticizing media coverage of their candidate.

Clinton is a slimy liar. Krugman is a slimy liar.

The NYT and Krugman want Clinton to be president. They will tell any lie to help her.

Just another whiff of desperation that has started to appear within the last few days from the Fascists: Hitlery’s camp’s condemnation of NBC covering her kennel cough, SerpendHead suddenly concerned with voting fraud, Hitlery’s transparent and illogical “explanations”.

Like the first whiff of a dead animal when you walk down a trail.

It is amazing when one realizes that these criminals are really sloppy. They are not even good liars...they do not care because that know that NOBODY (yet) is going to prosecute them for what they are.

And since we do not have a functional FCC, they forget that it is a federal crime to deliberately put out false or deceptive information over the airwaves. FEDERAL CRIME. Just put it on the list.

HRC certainly doesn't act like she's running for POTUS.

Can't find her anywhere pressing the flesh with the hoi polloi.

Another "Bill the Cat" for president (Meadow Party, 1984)?

Speaking of delusions: here’s a “man” who has delusions of importance, of adequacy, of relevance...

Hey! He scribes for the NYSlimes, teaches at an Ivy League school, is a Nobel Laureate...

Personally, I like to see him apply his prescriptions for Utopia by living in D/T Newark, and preaching to that choir. Easy-peasy.
