“How did Russia attack our democracy? By exposing corruption? Don’t you think the people have the right to know? Just precede all of our comments with those simple questions to anyone making that allegation. Simple, turns the tables on them. They cannot defend the corruption that was uncovered and laid bare on Wikileaks.
After we have shut them up with those questions we can make our other valid points.
Well stated. We rarely know how to play O. Instead we get caught in too much D, instead of turning the tables on them with irrefutables.
Even in the hearings the key point “ did the Russians hack anything to actually change votes” went unnoticed ......
Also countering Comeys bogus they hate Hillary , then how did she get , legally or illegally more votes....
Easy irrefutables, left out there by allowing the obfuscation to continue
Bump-sky
Chris Wallace simply accepts it at face value when Obama said his clean power law would mean 90,000 fewer asthma attacks a year.
There is no way, that such a linkage can be predicted. And there is no way it came to the round number of 90,000.
Now he just said the President of China will need to lecture Trump on carbon emissions. Pruett is just “ok”, but doesn’t hit him hard.
Wallace is going on and on about how wonderful China is on pollution.
The Obama administration and their eight years were completely lawless.
If you are going to go after them on this what about the rest of their eight years? Everything from the IRS going after us, to VA officials killing vets, to letting in illeagals, Interventions is country after country,MB intervention in govt., not defending the borders, election fraud after election fraud, lie after lie.
For a politically inspired lawyer the obama years would be a lifetime of billable hours.
Mubarak and Gadaffi were unavailable for comment about Russian meddling with our elections.
Gadaffi - “ we came, we saw, he died “ - Hillary Clinton.... prime example....
And how often do you hear the terms "Democrat" and "Ethics" in the same sentence? Especially Princess Liawatha....
Even when "Ethics" and "Indictment" appear in the same sentence, the clarification of "Democrat" affiliation usually shows up much later in the article, if at all.
Todd chastises McConnell about the senate’s refusal to hear for that Garland guy, supreme court. Todd says the senate should pass a law that no supreme court nominees during election years. While now it’s merely custom.
Can you imagine having hearings for Merrick Garland (or is other way around?) while the election was going on last year.
Todd would have Prebus on, et all, demanding to know why the pubs are having hearings on a new supreme court nominee during an election year, have they lost their minds?
The democrats have propaganda down to a science. They repeat the same talking points over and over until people start believing them. Propaganda 101.
The Republicans are sorely lacking in this science. They are all over the place with their answers. If we began saying the same things over and over again like they do, we will be able to make our points. If we start doing this: Anytime we hear this allegation from them, it triggers first this set of three or four questions from us. It shuts them up, then we are free to make our other points. Simple
Like everything else this exposes the media were not interested in the corruption of Whitewater, which there may not have been any; they were only interested in toppling a Republican President.
Great catch bud.
And I do watch it. After watching Homeland you come away thinking the CIA is little more than a den of snakes.
Great acting by Claire Danes ( Carrie ) and also F Murray Abraham ( king of the snakes as Dar Adal )
Mandy Patkin ok but the other 2 carry the show
Chris Walice is one of the reasons I cut cable. I flat out refuse to send 1 cent to his employers. The guy is a third rate hack that would be flipping burgers if he was not Mike Walices’ son.
F.Chuck did a terrible job of “gotcha journalism” today and it showed.He never touched any of our people and then stacked his panel with all moonbat MSNBC types and it showed. His show is rapidly reaching irrelevant status.
It is astonishing information, but I am disappointed by the response from the GOP. Where is the outrage and anger by GOP congressional leaders and the members? I am furious about the muted response from the likes of Ryan and McConnell, but where are the voices of the HFC and people like Cruz and Lee. What hypocrites.
The truth is out..... They know they were surveilled also, and whatever could be used to take them down, and ruin the “ gravy train “ can and would be used via leaks that they know will never be prosecuted as it would remove one of the “ power levers” they all rely on.
Hilly & Bill knew how to leverage illegally gained info to become the “ modern day Houdinis”
China is a communist state so Chris accepts whatever they say as gospel, just like every other Marxist in the media.
If we start doing this: Anytime we hear this allegation from them, it triggers first this set of three or four questions from us. It shuts them up, then we are free to make our other points. Simple
Well stated. That’s the essence of “ media training” keep to your points and don’t let them turn the table to theirs...
I read on ? Twitter that Chris lives in the same area as Ivanka. Poster said Chris was really mad about all the extra traffic and delays getting out of the area. Chris hates anything Trump. He was horrible today. I had to turn it off.
Thanks again Bray for your insightful column,
This allegation should always trigger first, something that will make them have to think. “Exactly how did Russia meddle in our election? By exposing corruption? Don’t you think the people have the right to know?”
If we bring up Obama’s meddling first, it is tit for tat and they pay no attention and keep on spewing their propaganda. They don’t have to think. They can rotely spew their crap and stay on offense.
Republicans have the habit of trying to argue using logic, which doesn’t work with the overly emotional dems. Emotion sells. We have to make them think. When they do, they cannot answer these questions. We are free to then bring up Obama, or any other number of true facts that make logical sense.
For sure, F. Chuck just claiming that Trump engages in fake news when he knows that the CIA over the years has installed over 4,000 journalists into the msm/dbm as operatives.
Nikki Haley doing an excellent job over on CBS against the red radddiiissshhhh who is throwing her one gotcha after another.
Nepotism in DC is like snow in Iceland.
