From the Washington Post, which awarded her four Pinnochios — but I betcha Oliver Darcy won’t be campaigning to get her deplatformed, now will he?
“I was the first person who ran for president without the protection of the Voting Rights Act, and I will tell you, it makes a really big difference. And it doesn’t just make a difference in Alabama and Georgia; it made a difference in Wisconsin, where the best studies that have been done said somewhere between 40 [thousand] and 80,000 people were turned away from the polls because of the color of their skin, because of their age, because of whatever excuse could be made up to stop a fellow American citizen from voting.”..
“Just think about it: Between 2012, the prior presidential election where we still had the Voting Rights Act, and 2016, when my name was on the ballot, there were fewer voters registered in Georgia than there had been those prior four years.”
These are all lies. And dangerous lies, my media betters tell me, when such confidence-destroying attacks on our democracy are made by Drumpf.
Maybe you’re right Hillary. Maybe they weren’t eligible to vote, dodo bird.
How did you come up with this range of numbers, 40,000 to 80,000? What is the source of that information? We’d like to contact the source for more details.
She needs to be called out on the lies, what studies done, by whom.
If anyone was turned away where and for what reason. Certainly we here would have heard this before now. Harder with voter ID to bus them up from Chicago to vote in Milwaukee, dont know that they came in those numbers for voter fraud but Hillary knows more about election fraud than just about anyone.
Hillary lying is not news. It is all she does, when she’s not drunk and can actually form a sentence. What IS news is the WaPo calling her out on it. I guess they want to make sure she doesn’t show up at the DNC and demand her candidacy again.
Imagine this truly despicable liar as President of the United States. I can’t imagine any rational, intelligent person not being grateful Trump is President instead of… THAT.
Instead we’ve got a president saying he has an absolute right to pardon himself when he doesn’t even excuse himself after emitting hot air from the other end. I wonder if anyone has explained to him that he can’t pardon state convictions.
@Greg: The article or subject is the drunken liar that lost a fixed election blabbering out of her mind, has nothing to do with Trump the recount only found a few extra Votes for Trump . She has killed her braincells with booze.
If you click from Ace of Spades to Hot Air, and on from there to the original Washington Post article, you wind up at a fair and thoughtful criticism of the numbers Clinton was referring to. Working the other way, however, the tone becomes increasingly hostile. The remarks posted here about alcoholism are slander. Trump has lowered the bar for American political discourse until it’s knee-high to a gnat. We now have a President whose public language sometimes isn’t fit to be heard by children.
On Election Day in Wisconsin a few people were told they were at the wrong precinct.
In Hillary’s diseased mind, this equates with being “turned away from VOTING.”
Actually, they were directed to vote in their own district, which would benefit them the most.
But it was nowhere near her numbers.
And, race had nothing to do with it.
Doctors have opined why Hillary was taking Warfarin instead of one of the newer drugs for her health problem.
Turns out none of the newer drugs allow a patient to DRINK alcohol but Warfarin does!
Google her images drinking.
Lady likes her drink!
@Greg: Just confirmed by John Podesta Wikileaks emails she is not just a drunk but a “stinking” drunk. You link to these ” best studies” All she did is slander Wisconsin. Lets ask the People of Haiti how she cares about the well being of blacks.
Are you talking about all the children at CPAC? Or that it has the kids on MSM seeing how many times they can repeat the “quote” like when he said Shithole oh they had so much fun with that one, that only from an un-named source, or hearsay.
One of the reasons for being turned away I might believe “because of their age” Milwaukee public schools might not teach the kids what voting age might be. Our lying Governors previous position Superintendent of Public Instruction of Wisconsin (2009 – 2019).
@Greg: Since the election, everything Trump has done and everything Hillary has done has made it clear that this was a true turning point for America. Stemming the liberal infection of the judicial system, putting true Constitutional Justices on the Supreme Court, addressing the truly difficult problems that other Presidents have avoided and making America stronger all over the world has been the result of keeping that lying, incompetent, corrupt criminal out of the Office.
Oh, and we KNOW how sensitive liberals are to making inaccurate statements about people, right? HA, HA, HA, HA! That is a true belly laugh. Actually, it is a more graceful way to explain her erratic behavior. She truly is a criminal.
@Deplorable Me:
Making America stronger all over the world?
Deplorable Me, what planet do you post from?
Did you not hear the room get quiet when Pence mentioned Trump’s name in front of a roomful of international leaders? He is a laughing stock. Is that still not clear to you?
Why do you still continue to allow Donald Trump to play you for such a sucker? What’s your secret? How do you believe one word that comes out of this con man’s mouth?
Did you still think that Mexico is going to pay for a wall? Do you still think Trump watched thousands of people cheering in Jersey City on 9/11 as the towers collapsed? Do you still think Russia is not happy with U.S. troops leaving Syria? Do you still think he’s going to sue all the women who accused him of sexual harassment during the campaign? Do you still think there were only 200 people at Beto O’Rourke’s rally several weeks ago? Do you still think that U.S. Steel is building six new plants? Do you still believe him when he says that the electoral college is advantageous for democrats?
How lost are you, DM?
@Deplorable Me:
The collective calling out one of their own. I wonder how long that little piece of integrity will last?
Kitt:
Another Wikileaks email chain also showed Podesta commenting on how much they need to rely on the ignorance of their supporters to sell their agenda. Be prepared to laugh and shake you head as they prove him correct when they defend her comments.
@Gary Miller: I’m not surprised you don’t know what planet YOU are on and need directions. It is no surprise that other countries preferred Obama; he was easily manipulated, easy to trick and a socialist like many of them. Sure he released ISIS on the world, but that stayed mostly over in the Middle East (well, except for France, Germany and Belgium).
Did you see Trump’s reception in Poland last year? How about Saudi Arabia? Did you notice Trump has more people around the world looking out for their own security instead of letting the US do it all?
Without a weak, anti-American like Obama in office the world is a MUCH safer place. Only idiots feel closing their eyes to problems until they overwhelm them is the best policy.
@another vet:
Oh, don’t get this confused with integrity; they simply don’t want Hillary coming out and taking control of the DNC again.
That is something Democrats can always rely on. (see above)
@Deplorable Me:
No thanks. Screen names tell me all I need to know.
@kitt, #8:
Why would anyone imagine the content of illegally obtained emails published by Wikileaks would be 100 percent original and authentic, when the entire point of the exercise was to seriously damage their political targets?
You people are amazing. You’ll believe anything negative about Obama or Clinton, against all logic, without evidence, and in spite of any evidence to the contrary, but find no fault with Donald Trump, even when logic, evidence, and direct observation support the truth of it.
Trump appears to have directly intervened as President to prevent a competing hotel from being built across the street from Trump International Hotel in DC. There are photos of an Oval Office meeting on the subject that supposedly didn’t take place. Yet not a word about it. It will be an informational blind spot in the right’s media universe, with the space filled by endless ruminations concerning Hillary’s emails, Obama’s Deep State anti-Trump conspiracy, etc.
@Greg:
Did you ever hear a Democrat refute them? Besides, those emails describe what we have clearly seen ourselves.
Wow… WE believe anything negative. YOU believe Hillary Bleachbit 33,000 emails because they were about Yoga and weddings yet also believe Trump colluded with Russians though, after 4 years of looking through means legal and illegal, NO evidence of it has ever been found. Yeah, tell us all about a predilection for believing the negative and accepting fantasy as fact.
Ivanka Trump apparently used private email servers to transmit hundreds of emails relating to official government business. No problem there, apparently. Republicans didn’t raise an eyebrow. Donald himself has used personal email for the same purpose. Again, no problem.
I don’t even know how this woman has a Top Secret security clearance and why she’s involved in government business to begin with. Nor her husband, who doesn’t look like someone I’d trust any farther than I could throw him. It seems no one normally responsible for background checks thought they should have access to Top Secret national information, but Daddy pushed the override button. Which they all deny, of course.
Mueller’s investigation has thus far resulted in known guilty verdicts or guilty pleas from 34 individuals and 3 companies somehow involved with the Trump campaign organization and administration. Multiple criminal investigations involving Donald Trump are underway in various state and federal districts. If this had happened in connection with Obama or Clinton, what would you be saying?
@Deplorable Me:
Trump travels to North Korea for a photo-op with Kim Jong Un and gets absolutely nothing. It takes Trump, a conman, two trips to figure out that the Korean leader is not on the level. Trump actually is dumb enough to believe Kim Jong Un when he says he knew nothing about the death of Otto Warmbier. And now North Korea is re-assembling rocket sites. But in the world of Deplorable Me, it’s Obama who’s easily manipulated.
In Helsinki, Trump stands by Putin and believes a former KGB agent while dismissing American intelligence agencies. Trump meets in secret with Putin and discusses God Know What. Trump has surrounded himself with criminals who are headed to jail, but in the world of Deplorable Me, it’s Obama who’s anti-American.
You’re looking pretty foolish here, Deplorable Me.
Trump Trump Trump do the trolls ever stay to the topic? Yes that means You Mikey and you Greggie.
No one ever denied the Emails were altered edited or falsified.
Hilly is a smelly drunk, Cheryl Mills is a worshipper of Molech, God of child sacrifice.
Hilly must have loved the term “Sand Niggers”, she forwarded it.
A female NBC executive said that Donna Brazile looked at Mrs. Clinton and never flinched, which seemed to enrage Hillary all the more. The executive continued:
“It was the most awful and terrible…and racist display – such a profane meltdown I have ever witnessed from anyone, and I will never forget it.
“That woman should never see the inside of the oval office I can tell you that. She was unhinged and just continued to verbally abuse everyone – she was out of control.”
After being pre fed all questions to be asked, Matt may have gone off script.
I guess she is also a mean drunk.
@Greg:
No, no problem. Were they classified? Was it a secret, private, unsecured server of her own installation? Did she destroy them the moment they were subpoenaed? Well… no. So, no problem.
Maybe she got some instruction and signed some documents teacher her how to be responsible with classified information and, not being named “Hillary”, she didn’t assume laws don’t apply to her and she was above all law and regulation.
NOTHING related to Trump or collusion. Witch hunt, wasted money, failure. Done. Settled science, end of debate.
Well, both Obama and Hillary were found to have lied about Benghazi, Obama lied about Fast and Furious and the IRS scandal and Hillary lied about having classified information on her server. Had Obama not turned the DOJ into a DNC organ, more could have been found. Uranium One, for example.
Did you happen to notice he has given up nothing? He is in the PROCESS of negotiations. Bush, Clinton and Obama were all suckered by N. Korea giving up money and resources to try and cajole N. Korea into joining the world community. Obviously, you have no idea of what negotiations look like. Pallets of money are not normally a part of them.
Obama told Putin after his last election, Obama would be free to do anything Putin told him to do. No, Gary… YOU are the fool.
@Deplorable Me:
Trump is in the PROCESS of negotiations? Obama is free to do anything Putin wants him to do?
You are precious, DM. And you really do provide a load of laughs around here.
@Gary Miller:
Which of those words did you have the most trouble understanding?
@Deplorable Me: Gary doesnt understand or has never heard this communist regime was always paid off when it rattled its tiny sword. Food aid and cash. They in return never kept and agreement. One of Barrys last acts was to hand over another big pile of food aid to feed Kims army and most favored boot lickers. Trump is not big into rewarding bad behavior. Trump is not into the UNs 2030 agenda, nor selling his time and the USAs assets to the highest bidder, pay for play BS that was par for the course with Hilly and Billy.
@Gary Miller: News flash Russia isnt our greatest worry, they are being used as a distraction.
It’s all related to Donald Trump, who purposefully brought all of these people on board for their skills and connections. Nothing is coincidental.
Judge Ellis, regarding Manafort: “He’s lived an otherwise blameless life…”
Did he read Manafort’s resume? Manafort was hired to do for Trump what he was hired to do for Viktor Yanukovych. This was the guy Trump hired to be his campaign manager. How clueless can you be?
@Greg: Sorry Greg its settle science, nothing you say matters, there was no evidence the election was won by Trump playing footsie with the Russians. The Mueller report has nothing. You are an Election denier.
Anti American to not accept the results, very Anti American.
The Best Studies show He won the electoral college and is President. The Pollsters election models were leaving out key factors like Voter ID.
@Greg:
NONE of it is related to Trump. No, it isn’t coincidental that Manafort was convicted of crimes he committed 10 years ago; it has NOTHING TO DO WITH TRUMP. It is too far removed to be coincidental.
47 months for Manafort. 3 years for Cohen (well, until he serves his time for lying to Congress). 14 days for Popadopolus. Wow, those were some terrific criminals. I think that works out to about $5 million per year of jail. But, no one ever accused a Democrat of being careful with other people’s money.
You just can’t accept the facts, can you? You think Mueller’s going to release his “report” today? If he’d doing a Friday dump of it, that’s not a good sign for the whiny crybaby bloc. If not, ANOTHER week goes by when he was supposed to release it. What’s Mueller afraid of?
Why do you suppose Schiff and Cohen had to meet for 10 hrs before his testimony before the House and Senate? You think they were rehearsing their script?
@Deplorable Me: Mueller must release soon there are book deals.
Cohen was coached.
@Deplorable Me, #25:
Cohen’s appearance and testimony was voluntary. What he said under oath there could be self-incriminating. Of course he and his attorneys met with the Investigative Committee beforehand. They had to come to terms on some general ground rules before they would agree to appear. This is entirely normal. Cohen’s legal team would have been complete idiots had they not done so.
@Greg: 10 hrs is not normal. Don’t play dumb. It was a script run-through to make sure Cohen brought up all the points they wanted to “justify” continuing the fishing expedition. Perhaps they should have told him not to LIE, but then they would have been very specific about which lies they WANTED. THAT took 10 hours.
