FOX “NEWS” SUNDAY
Rand Paul and Carly Fiorina and the hyperliberal
guests and panel discuss
Mr. Trump (how bad he is for the GOP, they say)
and Hillary Clinton (the murder of an Ambassador
in Benghazi is not mentioned, just her server).
Chris Wallace begins: “Did Hillary send classified material?”
Video is played in full to allow defense of Hillary.
Hillary: “I did not mail classified email to anyone
on my email.”
Fox “News”’s Ed Henry defending Hillary:
Calls this a “band aid” which is being ripped off.
Again the rape and murder of the Ambassador in Benghazi
is ignored.
Henry then defends Hillary saying she will testify on October 22,
even as in fact she also demands only questions on Benghazi
and a single appearance.
Fox “News”’s Ed Henry defends her, saying the email contained
“no classified markings”.
Wallace: “Did (Hillary) break the law?”
Fiorina “She broke the rules”.
==> Uses ‘rules’ instead of ‘Law’ about 10 times.
Jess Mcintosh (Emily’s List): (moves away from issue):
She smiles and says, Hillary is focused on Americans,
which is “where voters want her to be”.
Fiorina: “Voters are discovering, Hillary is not trustworthy”.
MCintosh: (again decisively moves from issue):
“Hillary is leading! Voters are excited
about her message”. ..”It is going well for her so far”.
Rand Paul: It is damning that the Obama administration is
bringing this up, referring to the DOJ passing
mention of this.
He than notes that even schedules are made
confidential to protect people. (Ambassadors!)
Wallace, now changing the subject to attack Mr. Trump.
Refers to the alleged threat by Mr. Trump to run
as a “third party candidate”.
Video is played but cut off when Trump begins to explain,
to which Wallace and the others laugh.
Wallace to Paul: “You were second (and then first) in the
polls. ... Why has your campaign lost momentum, sir?”
Rand Paul ignores question on Mr. Trump and
says he is winning in poll points over
Hillary, in what he calls his “message”.
Wallace castigates Paul for changing the subject,
and says he is “not tough enough”.
Paul admits he is not as warlike as McCain.
Then Paul switches to his major item
that the gov’t is collecting “so much information”,
and that there is too much collection.
Wallace surprisingly asks Rand to submit a question for the
upcoming GOP debate.
Paul refocuses, goes back to where he was,
and actually blames the collection of data,
“too much information”, as what created the Boston Atrocity
and other terrorist attacks on the mainland
(ignoring the Mosques and ISIS).
He pushes yet again to collecting “too much information”.
Wallace then detours and shows Paul hacking up and burning
IRS tax papers in a stunt he made when Trump started peaking.
Rand Paul: “I am trying to kill the tax code. All of it.”
Wallace refocuses to Rand Paul burning the tax code.
“Is it to take away from the Trump distraction”?
Paul: “No.” Paul says it is for his sons and other youth.
Do you worry about Trump’s comments on Mexican
murders which Wallace purports are going to hurt the GOP?
Paul does not want to discuss Trump so
he switches subject to places he goes where
“no one else goes” like “black colleges”.
However, for the record, Paul says HE will not paint
all Mexicans with a broad brush, implying Mr. Trump does.
Wallace is satisfied that Trump has been
again falsely vilified, and so he announces that
he is about to switch to the
liberal panel to discuss Hillary’s
“legal problems” and what Wallace makes up,
confabulates, as he reads from his
pre-written FOX “News” script, concerning
the fictitious Trump’s “threat” to run
as a third party so FOX’s Bush or Romney
can get back on the ballot.
FOX and Wallace again begin with complete
videos of Hillary and her comments.
Then FOX shows her stats vs. Bush, RUbio and
... but not Trump (of course).
RINO, hyperliberal, Brit Hume on Hillary.
“She has been proven to be a liar
(there is classified info on about 10%).
Sheryl Gay Stollberg NYTimes
“We should set this (discussion of Hillary) aside.”
She is surprised anyone is talking about this story
now, “5 months after the NYTimes broke it”.
The murdered and raped Ambassador is not discussed.
RINO George-”Wife-for-Walker”- Will
takes the Trump question sent to him, first.
Will worries that Trump may make the DNC “successful”.
Will says “Trump will (also) look like a poor loser”.
Will says much will be discovered about
Trump, such as he “gave money to Hillary”.
Continuing from the Walker check-off sheet,
Will continues with more allegations against Trump.
Finally, Wallace interrupts and says Trump also got a
tough reception from the media at the border. Wallace
takes a section of video, and will not
let Trump respond as he says he would at a later time.
They all laugh.
Relative rightist Juan Williams muses that
Nader cost “Al Gore the presidency” and worries
that “Trump is still around”.
Williams mocks Trump regarding Hispanic voters.
“Trump is damaging the GOP brand”
and it is tied into “extremism”.
Wallace agrees, and says Trump
is trying to “contract” the GOP.
Summary:
Again FOX News selects interviewees
only from that list of those
in love with Hillary, with Romney, and who cannot
even say Hillary BROKE THE LAW.
And FOX continues to boycott truth about Mr. Trump.
Just when we get down on something, we get a gift. This past week Cruz nailed McConnell, even calling him out as the liar that he is. Regardless of who we get elected in 2016 maybe we can get the US Senate to elect someone else as its leader. I know I’ll be suggesting that to our CO senators. Same for the US House leadership.
Thanks for the summary. That must have been tough to watch. Man, they are so out of touch with the base and reality.
Wallace: “Did (Hillary) break the law?”
Fiorina “She broke the rules”.
==> Uses ‘rules’ instead of ‘Law’ about 10 times.
Well it just goes to Show - Carly is not ready for prime time. Back to HP she goes
Carly is in no position to say she broke the law. She has no idea if she actually did and could not say so she changed it to rules and her trustworthy factor.
Hillary may not make it through the primary with her baggage and her lack of charisma.
We have always needed someone who could play political hardball and mean it! Trump may be that guy.
Exactly! Its all too easy to forget all the aspects of becoming a Presidential candidate with money right up there near the top.
I agree. But I do think it happened because Trump showed courage, and spoke it out loud, and Cruz and Trump decided enough is enough, and go on the attack.
Do you remember Trey Gowdy and his excellent take-down of the IRS Clown Commissioner, John Koskinen? Beautifully spoken, but then what?
What has happened since then? Did Lorner go to jail? Did someone fess up to being order to erase the hard drives? Did even one person get fired?
What about Benghazi? Same questions... Does it really make no difference?
I’d like to have hope, but frankly, even the firebrands of the Republican party have let me down, and sometimes I think they too are in on the scam.
Is Gowdy an Issa? Is Issa a Boehnerite? Is Boehner being blackmailed like Denny Hastert? Are they all yucking it up behind our backs?
I’ll vote for Trump, even if he runs Third party, because frankly, the Republicans have lost me.
Voting any third party certainly guarantees a Democrat win. Should it come to that, it will be hard to complain about a Hillary presidency if you’re part of the reason she wins.
That 25% that Trump has is mostly Tea Party and that is another reason the elites hate him.
Don't think it's a case of being out of touch. Instead, they believe They can implement Their agenda. Given the ignorance of many voters, they may be right.
He is beholden to no one which has to kill them both and he's a free thinker which has to make them crazy.
I doubt he has to run third party since he very likely will win the nomination.
There are enough people mad at both parties to get a Trump elected. He is in no way a Ross Perot since their name recognition and instincts were no way similar. Trump can almost make it on name alone, but he has amazing instincts and articulation not to mention the money factor.
If you have ever been inside a campaign and talked to these genius campaign managers you would be amazed at the incompetence. Trump is doing everything they would warn against and people are loving it.
We had a saying about managers, win or lose their checks still cash.
Voting any third party certainly guarantees a Democrat win. Should it come to that, it will be hard to complain about a Hillary presidency if you’re part of the reason she wins.
So your money is on Clinton in OH and PA if it is Trump/Bush/Clinton race. Where do I get in on that bet?
Fact is for 2016 the GOP has already given away states like OH with TPA and amnesty support. Trump puts those states back in play if he runs as a GOPer.
“Carly is in no position to say she broke the law.”
Carly is NO TED the man CRUZ, a very pale PC version, I am no longer that interested in her
Has Trump changed his position from pro gun control and pro national healthcare? That’s just two items I can remember off the top of my head but I would guess there are others that will make Tea Party members think twice during a primary.
Still, it will be fun to see Trump perform for the upcoming debates.
I used to think that.
However, Morgan, if the Republicans simply roll over, and do nothing—as they are now, how will their winning really be any different than Hillary winning?
And by “their”, I mean if the nominee is JEB, Linda Graham, Chrispy, Huckleberry, Kase-itch, Paty-tacky, Rubi-con, Saint-Rick-torem, Rue Paul, etc, etc.... I make fun of their names, but the all deserve it!)
I am at the point so many others were in 2012. I thought a lousy Romney would be better than Obama 2, and frankly, I still believe that.
HOWEVER, the Republican National Committee, the Chamber of Commerce screw American worker types, the Congressional Country Clubbers, have got to be taught a lifetime-long lesson. Their choices are losers, and they cannot/will not win. I do believe they know this! AND the sad part is, they’re OK with that, as long as they keep theirs.
Last year, they promised us the moon, just to keep theirs. The proof is clearly in the pudding.
I no longer will allow myself to be lied to and keep voting R.
