Video: Earnest: Candidate Who "Snorted His Way Through" Debates
Real Clear Politics ^ | 10-17-16 | CruiseMates

Posted on 10/17/2016 12:52:59 PM PDT by CruiseMates

Josh Earnest, Hillary Spokesperson makes a joke that falls flat (on his face) during press conference today. He completely dismisses the idea of a pre-debate drug test with a comment about Trump "sniffing his way through the debates."

Lower than snakes belly retort that shows why the press pool hates Hillary and probably will not love covering her.

Does anyone else think the media might fall out under Hillary at some point if this kind of sarcastic snark continues? I know they think she is qualified, but will they tolerate the arrogance?

Trump needs to quit sniffing into the mic.

I love him but, sorry, it’s TRUE.

It’s SO basic.

No. Hillary could shoot and kill someone on live TV and the snakes in the 4th Estate (aka the 5th column) would STILL be in the tank for her.

In fact, they'd probably blame the shooting on a Trump supporter dressed up to look like "Her Heinous".

He is implying that Donald Trump takes drugs.

That going low, very low.

Rush explained this already. It was apparent to the trained ear that they jimmied his volume and compression on purpose to pick up any breathing.

What planet is this guy living on?

Josh Earnest could burn Trump in effigy and the MSM would cheer him on.

No. They're the unofficial propaganda arm of the Democrat party, and helping them win elections is their primary duty.

I heard the first explanation. I believed it and I believed it would never recur.

It absolutely did recur, repeatedly.

And he DOES sometimes do it in rallies, though almost never.

When the chips are REALLY down in the debates, it’s..

SNIFF SNIFF SNIFF SNIFF SNIFF

He does a bazillion things GREAT, a total rockstar.

But that SNIFF, omg it’s sooooo simple to fix and it sounds horrible.

The press pool is not the same as the MSM - it has been reported she treats them badly and they are not amused.

I first noted it and commented on it during the spring rallies.

He’s not sniffing. It’s controlled breathing, like martial arts people do for balance and self control and runners do to keep themselves oxygenated.

It’s not sniff sniff sniff either. It’s one big inhale through the nose.

I don’t mind it. I know what it is and I’ve seen it before.
