Trump aide: Clinton hasn't been 'truly' vetted before
The Hill ^ | May 04, 2016 | Jessie Hellmann

Posted on 05/04/2016 10:54:49 AM PDT by McGruff

Presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump is optimistic about his chances of winning a general election match-up versus Hillary Clinton because she hasn’t been vetted before, spokeswoman Katrina Pierson said Wednesday.

“Oh, absolutely,” Pierson said in response to a question about Trump’s enthusiasm for facing Clinton in November. “Mainly because Hillary Clinton has never been truly vetted before. Particularly by the media,” she said to MSNBC’s Tamron Hall.

“How many times has Hillary Clinton been asked about the specific role in Benghazi outside of the testimony?” Pierson asked.

On June 13, 2015, Hillary unveiled the broad themes of candidacy for President in an address on Roosevelt Island, New York City. Once one of the most polarizing figures in American Politics, she now shouts from the roof tops that she’s an advocate for the poor, as well as for women and girls. But simply being a woman, unfortunately, does not make her the advocate that females in this Country deserves.

Hillary Clinton is an advocate for women as long as you are not one of Bill Clinton’s rape victims or girl friends. And as Hillary rails against the excess of wealthy hedge funders and others on Wall Street, she has used her own statue as part of the power elite to bully people. (”War on Women” pages 15-16)

The Clintons’ life long history of lying and violating the law, seemingly without consequence or punishment, is a phenomenon known as ‘Elite Deviance”. Elite Deviance is a condition socialogists say exists in a society when the elite of that society no longer believe that the rules apply to them. “It is not due primarily to psychopathological variables, but to the institutionalization of elite wrong doing,” say Professor David Simon in his landmark book now in its eighth printing=”Elite Deviance”.

Elite Deviance is an anomaly in which a tiny few people who have enough material wealth, political influence, and personal connections can immunize themselves from considering the consequences of their most abhorrent destructive, vile and even criminal behavior. This describes the Clintons perfectly.

Elite deviance protects and perpetuates moral depravity and debased ethical relativism among the powerful and wealthy in our midst. It is an aberration of civil society that is only possible through the elites’ cadres of supporters, sycophants, apologists and fellow travelers in media, academia, politics and high finance. This includes Clintons apologist James Carville, David Brock, Betsy Wright, Lanny Davis and now fully exposed George Stephanopoalus.

In short, elite deviance means that there are a few among us to whom the rules don’t seem to apply. They can behave with impunity in ways that would otherwise incur severe, if not life-ending, repercussions for all others in the American Criminal Justice System. This pertains to the Bushes as well as the Clintons.

The American public needs to see past this false, dangerous narrative of a charming, goofily naiive “Bubba” and a ‘poor, devoted” Hillary. (”War on Women” Pages 17-18)

Or the MSM circling the wagons for the Dem is another. Get over one’s emotional involvement and a lot more stuff is predictable!

Have you noticed? Trump is succeeding handling the media. A large segment of the public is now privy to the MSM formerly invulnerable machinations and devices. Those days of media total power are passing rapidly.

Still do hope you or someone with your political inclinations gets to lead the Democrat Party in this November's election -- whether it's Hitlary or someone else. I like DJT's chances even better if so.

And, like any other GOP candidate, Cruz already had taken those issues with Hillary off the table.

Hillary Clinton has never been truly vetted before

And she is not going to be vetted now.

The media will circle their wagons around Hillary just like they did for Obama in 2008. Absolutely nothing critical of Hillary will be published by any outlet of the lamestream media from the moment of Hillary's coronation at the Democratic convention until after the election.

Before the convention, the media will briefly note any new evidence of Hillary's criminal schemes for the sole purpose of being able to dismiss such evidence after the convention as "old allegations."

Stop! You’re cracking me up!

I have been very serious about politics with my baptism standing as a Pat Buchanan delegate in ‘96.

“the DNC knows they’ve got to get an alternate now and quickly and it’s neither Bernie nor the perverted Uncle Joe.”

The problem is that the Clinton’s own the DNC, so if the decision comes to do a “Robert Torricelli” on Hillary, it will be way, way too late in the game! And while I have your attention: “Go Bernie, make Hillary crap her pants a few more times!”

I can’t wait to see how Hillary responds to Trump’s heavy artillery.

Take your pick:

1. "Those are baseless claims."
2. "Those are old allegations that were refuted a long time ago."
3. "I won't dignify those disgusting allegations with a response."
4. "War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength."
5. "We have always been at war with Eastasia."

Here is the deal. Trump’s numbers are going to continue to improve while Hillary’s will continue to fall. Right now Republicans are hoping she will be indicted and taken out of the race while Democrats scoff at such an idea. By the time the Democrats convention is about ready to start her numbers will be so bad that Republicans will hope she is not indicted so she will stay in the race, while it will be Democrats who will beat the indictment drums in hopes that she will be forced out. Their prayers will be answered, and Joe Biden will parachute in to the convention to take the nomination.

The problem is that the Clinton’s own the DNC...

Stock in the DNC is overrated, as are many political stocks. 0 has cashed in most of the DNC capital in the past years and there really isn't much there beyond this coming election. Pretty much the same with the RNC.

I'm not sure all FReepers have paid attention to how this primary season's results so far have transcended political parties. The same ol' same ol' is not the same as it has been. (Cue Bob Dylan...)

The RNC and the DNC both are on trial this year.

The same thing that began to happen to the Bush family this primary season awaits the Clinton family if Hitlary is the D nominee.

Look at Trump's record so far this campaign. Like him or don't but do NOT ignore his potential to win this election and bigtime over ANYBODY this November.

How about being removed as a lawyer from the Watergate inquiry because of unethical conduct?

Apparently that is not true and Hillary served until Nixon's resignation. But it's sure to come up anyway.
