Caddell was also critical of Democratic messaging after Donald Trump’s press conference on Wednesday. “Yesterday was one of the most amazing days I’ve ever seen,” he declared. “Throwing the ‘treason’ word around, the T-word, if you will. Why were they walking into the trap?”

He said he did not know what might have been revealed in the pilfered DNC voicemails released by WikiLeaks Wednesday, but “anything that has to do with the words ‘email,’ ‘Hillary,’ the ‘DNC’ – all of this just continues to roil the situation.”

He agreed with Bannon that Trump was deliberately baiting Democrats and the media by making controversial comments about Clinton’s emails, and “they walked right into the trap, believe me.”

Caddell also weighed in on the debut of Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine, who “seems like a very, basically nice man, reading other people’s words and looking like, you know, ‘What am I doing here?’”

Kaine.....You sucker....She needs Va...not you...

[SERKIT]

Trump is as dumb as a fox: If the 30,000 Hillary emails were about yoga, weddings, and love letters to Bill, then there are NO national security concerns. The fact that they have tight sphincters about the release of 30,000 emails (from Russia or WikiLeaks) pretty much confirms they have A LOT to hide. The emails were intercepted WELL BEFORE Trump entered the race...but we’ll accuse Trump of treason anyway....sure.

Pat Caddell, an honest Democrat.

Also a cookie monster.

Hillary's dying w/ her boots on, so the opportunistic Clintons did not hesitate.....not even for a nanosecond. They stupidly thought Trump gave them an opening....and the Clintons blithely jumped in w / both feet.

THIS IS FUNNY...the Clintons accused Trump of ...wait for it....."committing treason" for asking Russia, or any other governments that may have Clinton's mountain of missing emails in their possession, to return them to the United States.

Charles Krauthammer pounced on this.....said Trump laid a brilliant trap....and the stupid Clintons fell right into it.

B/c Hillary's been telling us....."those aren't classified emails." The missing emails talked about weddings, yoga and cupcake recipes. Not to worry, America. US ntl security and espionage are not involved.

So if Hillary and Bill are suddenly paranoid about Russia having her emails......they must contain something the Clintons don't want revealed (smirk).

The Donald is perhaps not the fox in this situation, but like Uncle Remus’ Br’er Rabbit, he is saying, “Oh, please, please, Br’er Fox, don’t throw me in that brier patch!”

The Donald is sitting up on the hill, still sassing Herself.

Who has no idea of how all this happened.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

It wasn’t just the Democrats, Pat. A bunch of “conservative” hand-wringers spent a day or two moaning about it too.

Make a great billboard or hashtag, “give back our emails”, #bringbackouremails.

“What Am I Doing Here?”

Cue “Please, Mister Custer”

I am glad that the Administration and the DNC meme’s have said that Russia is the enemy and a security risk.
That is really a 180 from last year when Obama approved the sale of Uranium One to the Russians, guess they were not a security risk then, and the nine major shareholders of UO donated $165,000,000 to the Clinton Foundation.

I would love for Trump to throw out that red meat and see where they go.

Caddell also weighed in on Hillary's unlikely VP pick....“Kaine seems like
a very nice man, reading other people’s words, and, looking like, you know,
‘What the hell am I doing here?’”

Methinks Billy Boy warned Kaine: "Keep smiling, and shut up.
You make one false move, and you get a one-way trip to Marcy Park."

[Fester Chugabrew]

Trump explicitly encouraged Russian espionage the same way stable families encourage the persecution of gays and lesbians. The “dangers” we face are all fabricated out of whole cloth in the liberal head. They can do nothing other than manufacture lies and hatred. It comes naturally when you do not know where you came from, where you are going, and why.

ROTFLMAO....now that's funny

Pat Caddell, an honest Democrat.

Anyone who chooses to be a Democrat chooses to be dishonest.

[freepertoo]

You know, this thing is really being over-thought. He simply gave a sarcastic reply saying, in essence, hey! Since you are accusing them of having the emails, how about if we ask them if they’ll clue us in on what is in them?’ IMHO, this wasn’t a ploy by Trump to trap anyone...he was just being sarcastic. I would have been, too! It was an excellent answer. The liberal angst around my office is unbelievable.

Hillary's longtime Russian connections. Here's Bill and his buddy, Putin, having a tete a tete; Hillary was then-Secy of State.

Circa 2010--Ex-Pres Clinton in Moscow having a laugh w/ Putin.

"Hahahaha. US ntl security? Hahahaha. You gotta be kidding, Vlad."

===========================================

Bill expedites the Russian uranium deal.

Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev greets former
president Clinton (L) in Almaty on September 6, 2005.

CIRCA 2015 A Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporter claims that former President Bill Clinton falsely denied hosting a meeting with Kazakh officials when she tried to write a story that involved his foundation several years ago.

Jo Becker, who works on the newspaper's investigative desk, said Clinton only confirmed the meeting took place after she informed him there were photographs.

Clinton's role in a deal that involved Kazakhstan, the Russian government, and a man who donated millions to the president's charitable foundation were detailed in a story Becker published on Thursday.

That article revisited some of her earlier reporting and included information from the upcoming book "Clinton Cash," which is generating widespread headlines amid a flurry of reports suggesting it will raise serious questions about Clinton's family foundation.

The donor in question is Canadian mining executive Frank Giustra, a longtime friend of the former president who has given tens of millions to the Clinton Foundation in the past few years. (A couple of hours after the NYT story was published, Giustra issued a defiant statement. We've included that below.)

Becker initially wrote about the February 2007 meeting between Clinton, Giustra, and executives from the state-owned nuclear company Kazatomprom in 2008. The gathering took place at Clinton's home in Chappaqua, New York.

"When I first contacted both the Clinton foundation — Mr. Clinton's spokesman — and Mr. Giustra, they denied any such meeting ever took place," Becker recalled in footage aired by Fox News on Thursday.

However, Becker said Clinton and Giustra both changed their stories after she confronted them with evidence to the contrary.

"And then when we told them, 'Well we already talked to the head of Kazatomprom, who not only told us all about the meeting, but actually has a picture of him and Bill at the home in Chappaqua, and that he proudly displayed on his office wall.' They then acknowledged that yes, the meeting had taken place," Becker continued in the television interview.

The purpose of the meeting, then Kazatomprom President Moukhtar Dzhakishev told The Times, was to discuss Kazakhstan potentially buying a 10% stake in Westinghouse, a US nuclear company. Becker's 2008 story also noted one of Giustra's companies secured a deal to buy uranium deposits from Kazatomprom in 2005.

That agreement was made after Clinton accompanied Giustra on a trip to Kazakhstan. During the trip, Giustra and Clinton met with Kazakhstan's President Nursultan Nazarbayev.

Clinton issued a public statement praising the Kazakh leader despite his questionable, antidemocratic record. The Times called the praise a "propaganda coup" for Nazarbayev. (he later "won relection" w/ an unbelievable 90% of the vote)

"Just months after the Kazakh pact was finalized, Mr. Clinton's charitable foundation received its own windfall: a $31.3 million donation from Mr. Giustra that had remained a secret until he acknowledged it last month. The gift, combined with Mr. Giustra’s more recent and public pledge to give the William J. Clinton Foundation an additional $100 million, secured Mr. Giustra a place in Mr. Clinton’s inner circle," wrote Becker and another reporter, Don Van Natta.

A spokesperson for the Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership told Business Insider they are "working on a formal statement" in response to a request for comment on Thursday. Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership is an initiative of the Clinton Foundation that was cofounded by Clinton and Giustra in 2007. A Clinton Foundation spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.

Near as I can tell there are two and only two honest Democrats left. Caddell and Doug Schoen.

You can tell because just about all the other Democrats treat them as pariahs.

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Frightening...........Tim Kaine, as POTUS!!!

[loveliberty2]

But Schoen is a fierce defender of a vote for HRC.
