Look at it this way: This is a man that has been plotting to become president since he was a Freshman at Princeton. He goes to Harvard Law, gets great marks, clerks for a great judge, makes all of the right connections in the Bush administration, becomes Solicitor Gen. of the most conservative state in the Union, and then wins Senate seat.
Think about it. He did all of the right things, checked all of the right boxes, made all of the right connections, and then when it came time for him to be crowned, some guy with funny hair and an orange tan from NYC steals his birthright.
That is why he is so pissed. He felt Trump stole what was rightly his.
You left out the most important thing: everyone who's ever worked side-by-side with him since high school think he's a miserable SOB.
Trump not only “stole his birthright” he made the point that his birthright was Canadian/Cuban, and his American citizenship was questionable. Still is!
Too bad he was born Canadian and was never qualified for the office, other than his citizenship, he did all the right things.
“That is why he is so pissed. He felt Trump stole what was rightly his.”
Yes. Supposedly this is the same response that Clinton had to Obama in 2008.
Per your earlier post about conspiracies:
I do not devote excessive time for research on various conspiracies for two reasons:
1) I assume as a matter of course that conspiracies are the norm, not the exception.
2) I assume that the Powers will do all they can to keep them quiet.
I consider it a standard tactic by those in political power to portray the very idea of conspiracy as absurd paranoia; that way they get uninformed but rational persons to avoid objectively considering evidence of same.
Every back-room deal - every one - is a conspiracy. How many back-room deals happen on a daily basis? Every insider-trading maneuver - every one - is a conspiracy. How many insider-trading maneuvers occur on a regular basis? Those are just two examples.
Conspiracy literally means: to breathe together. Human beings are both social and hierarchical. Whenever the cheerleaders and athletes in high school band together and share their secrets in hushed tones so that the out crowd does not hear, that is a conspiracy. It is thoroughly banal and mostly harmless, but it is one.
Add age, experience, position, and money to that inclination, and you have the makings for some serious damage.
I weary of people speaking as though a real conspiracy in high places would be an extraordinary thing.
The Bilderbergers scoff at the idea that there is anything conspiratorial about their organization - while the complicit media actively protects them from scrutiny - yet they have almost unprecedented security and secrecy at their meetings. (In some cases, citizens are not even able to get to and from their legal residences by car just to appease these puppet masters.)
Obama changed the White House response to FOIA to exclude key documentation.
Clinton used a private server for thousands of official emails.
Those acts, and many others like them, are done to enable and protect conspiracy; it is that simple.
It was not rightly his and he knows it. He stated himself that he was not eligible for the presidency and he is not. He had no birthright except maybe in Cuba or Canada!
