This morning, Hillary Clinton held a press conference, of a sort (answered 4 questions and 3 of them were about Trump) on the NY Bomb situation.
Her third question, from a lisping reporter (some light googling reveals this was Bloomberg’s Jennifer Epstein) , was so entirely insane it boggles the mind, and her response was no better. Take a look:
Now let me type out that question for you:
“Are you concerned that this weekend’s attacks, or potential incidents in the coming weeks, might be an attempt by ISIS or ISIS-sympathizers, or really any other group, maybe Russians, um to influence the presidential race in some way, uh, and presumably try to drive, uh, votes to Donald Trump who is, as you’ve said before, widely seen as perhaps being somebody who they would be more willing to, or see as an easier person to be against?’
So apart from how rambling and inane the wording is, let’s focus on the facts here. This reporter just asked Hillary Clinton, the democrat candidate for President, if Russia just bombed New York to get the vote out for Trump. Think about that! Roll it around in your brain. Are you concerned that ISIS or Russia may have planted a bomb in Chelsea to get people to vote Trump? Really? So what should Hillary say to a question like that?
Obviously she should say something like ‘No, obviously Putin did not leave a bomb in a trash can in Chelsea to get people to vote for my opponent, that’s silly, go home you’re drunk!’
But what Hillary DID say was:
“Well, Jennifer, I don’t want to speculate but here’s what we know. And I think it’s important for voters to hear this and weigh it in making their choice in November. We know that a lot of the rhetoric we’ve heard Donald Trump has been seized on by terrorists, in particular ISIS, because they are looking to make this into a war against islam”
So instead of saying NO, Hillary basically says Yes. She doesn’t want to speculate, but here I go, speculatin’ again!
A new low for the Media and for Clinton. It’s shockingly unshocking.
