Clinton Supporter on Her Absence From Baton Rouge: ‘I’m Not Sure Where She Is’
Washingon Free Beacon ^ | 08/19/16 | Chandler Gill

Posted on 08/20/2016 1:09:02 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Rep. Steve Cohen (D., Tenn.), a Hillary Clinton supporter, said he was not sure where Clinton was while Donald Trump donated a truck full of food and supplies to the victims of the historic flooding that has devastated Louisiana this week.

Cohen deferred questions about Clinton by attacking Trump for having three campaign managers and said his past contributions to St. Jude Children’s Hospital did not actually contain items of use.

“You have the optics of Mr. Trump in Louisiana today,” CNN’s Brooke Baldwin said to Cohen. “We just saw an 18-wheeler full of items that he’s donated. Can you give the man some credit?”

Cohen could not.

“He politically did the right thing,” he said. “There is a lot of items in there that are actually items, unlike some of the contributions he allegedly made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.”

Baldwin interjected to say that a CNN correspondent on the ground in Louisiana confirmed there were items in the truck.

Cohen then brought up Trump’s past contributions to St. Jude’s.

What a person couldn’t do with some coveralls in that material! Like go to Hillary’s next rally, get down front real close to her, and then start screaming at her in tongues. A person who wanted to be our president ought to be able to shrug such a spectacle off with aplomb, and not start twitching all over the place.

How many tractor trailers of supplies did the Clinton Crime Syndicate Foundation send to B.R.?

Do you know how annoying it would be for the Clintons to establish a precedent where they are shown to be a real charity helping Americans as opposed to actually running a giant petty cash fund? They'd be bombarded by requests from sweaty, dirty, smelly people in need of help. That gets expensive and ichy.

She’s probably getting her Botox injections. Have you checked out the bags under her eyes lately?

She’s having a monologue with her junk.

The Beast is probably laying in a hospital bed getting fresh blood transfusions and shot full of wonder drugs so she can stand up and shuffle around for another 4 days.

She was probably there washing out her shorts.

Hillary is a taker, not a giver.

Money is for taking, not for giving

the sad thing for the dems is...
you are NOT kidding...
and that is probably true...

I think there is a possibility she drops out in the next week or two... even though its too late (supposedly).

The dems have done this before. They do a restart with bernie and hillary throwing her support his way with him retaining her VP pick... or perhaps Micheal Obama... to try and retain the vagina vote they are counting on.

Hillary hasn’t been seen in a couple of days. I suspect that her handlers would have liked to have sent her down to Louisiana this week, but she CAN’T go. She can’t handle stairs, or walking long distances. In order for her to tour one of the devastated areas and speak with the residents, she would have to navigate through some rough terrain, step over debris, etc. Hillary is a no win situation on this one - She’s being criticized for not going, but if she does, she’s risking some pretty bad optics that will raise even more questions about her health..

Clinton, at some point, may stop appearing in public or in private. On November 9 Billious will announce with tears in his eyes that she has passed on to a better place, expiring right after the closing of the polls and congratulations to President Kaine.

A few “true” heartfelt words rang out yesterday, time after time, in Baton Rouge, LA, that say it all, shouted from the great people of LA to Donald J. Trump as he walked towards to them to greet and chat with them: “Mr. Trump....We knew you would come and not forget us....we love you!!!”

Folks remember this, “One nation, under God, with Liberty & Justice for all”!!! The nation that sticks together, prays together, stands together, takes care of each other together, through good & bad times...is the nation that endures forever.

Thank you Franklin Graham, Samartians Purse, LA & Baton Rouge, first responders, and all God’s children that look out for their neighbors and fellow citizens. Donald J. Trump will win the POTUS election on November 8, 2016. But...yesterday, August 19, 2016....Mr. Trump became the POTUS, without one vote being cast!!!

POTUS, Obama & Hillary Clinton were nowhere to found. Shucks...folks, don’t ya all get it.....Obama’s golf game and Bill Clinton’s birthday celebration are much more important then a few (80,000) “southern folks, rednecks, cajuns & African-American, minority folks” being washed out of their homes, their lives disrupted and destroyed!!! Shame on this Democrat Party low life!!!

GO.....Donald J. Trump!!!

This seriously ill woman should withdraw from the POTUS race, on her own, or, the Democrat Party should force her to withdraw, immediately. She is healthwise, & mentally unable to perform the duties of the POTUS office!!! End of story!!!

I believe she is too arrogant to withdraw. And a switch-a-roo will only backfire on the Dems, IMO - Trump would shout that the voting is rigged (and be right).

She is still breathing isn’t she? As long as she is breathing[ which is more that can be said of those she considers a threat to her power] there is nothing wrong with her. This, Hillary is this, and Hillary is that is just psych ops put out by the Hillary Camp to garner sympathy and make people feel sorry for her.

This putz certainly does have his lies down pat. Here is the "refutation" that he cites Trump didn't give any money to St. Jude as he brushed of the question of where Hillary is...

"At St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, a world-famous cancer center in Memphis, spokeswoman Kelly Schulz said they had never announced a large gift of this kind from Trump. St. Jude does not release detailed information about donors, so The Post could not determine what — if anything — Trump has donated to St. Jude's from his own pocket."

Here's a link on that part that discusses that particular charge in more detail. Whether Trump personally paid or caused a donation to made, the Cohen BS is just exactly that. BS.
