Dukakis: Trump needs to apologize to Clinton
The Hill ^ | January 13, 2017 | Brooke Seipel

Posted on 01/13/2017 9:21:45 PM PST by Zakeet

Former Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis said in an interview Friday that President-elect Donald Trump needs to get off Twitter and apologize to Hillary Clinton.

"I mean he ought to be ashamed of himself for this kind of stuff, calling her a crook and that kind of nonsense. She's a good person, nothing she did involved breaches of national security," Dukakis said in an interview on WABC radio with Rita Cosby. "She was investigated for God knows how long about Libya, and a Republican-dominated committee exonerated her."

Dukakis went on to say that Trump needed to change his behavior and apologize to Clinton over the matter.

"I think Trump owes her an apology for that stuff. But, in any event, I gather they’re going to be at the inauguration, and more power to them. And, I hope he'll reach out to her," Dukakis said. "Because of the kind of language he used and the accusations he made, you know. The fact that he was going to prosecute her, I mean what nonsense. And we're not hearing that anymore, are we? Which tells you something."

He lost to Bush by 7 million votes in 88 so it would have made no difference. The elec vote is needed so that more than just NY, New England and Calif. choose the President. (Look at 88...Bush won several states you wouldn’t expect including Calif..)

Dukakis has always had a handle on “acting Presidential,” yep, he’s the go-to guy for that.

I assumed that both Michael Dukakis and Rita Cosby were dead by now.

Define presidential. Would that be like Bill Clinton ans his sexual acts while on the phone with dignitaries? Or Obama’s lies about everything including Benghazi. How about pay for play is that more presidential? Does open borders sound like a presidential love for his country? Maybe I just don’t understand the true meaning of presidential, please explain to this deplorable person that I am.

The RATs must have had to look under a lot of rocks to find Dukakis, the loser.

Zorba the clerk rides again. The political landscape might have been a lot different if you would have campaigned a little harder and attained 41.

HRC must’ve adopted your campaign strategy and as a result... lost. But in all honesty at least when you weren’t campaigning you were actually governing Massachusetts.

[WIKI quote] In 2008, he reflected on his defeat during an interview with Katie Couric, in which he said he “owe[d] the American people an apology” because “if I had beaten the old man, we never would have heard of the kid [GWB], and we wouldn’t be in this mess.” [Unquote]

But Zorba didn’t go far enough... He might have caused the Clinton machine to have never existed as well. However, Perot ensured that the rise of the Clinton machine, and 30 years later (finally) that cacophonous period of rotten politics is history.

Thanks Mike. Now quit waxing stupidity, separate yourself from the DNC and give us your acute political analysis of the DNC and your analysis of how you helped the erosion of American freedoms. Otherwise you will continue your role as lapdog for party of national corruption.

I long for the day that Obama is as relevant as Dukakis.
