HillaryClinton can illegally get the questions to the Debate & delete 33,000 emails but my son Don is being scorned by the Fake News Media?— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 16, 2017
See?
Isn't that obviously the answer?
“I wonder why the Secret Service, if this was nefarious, why the Secret Service allowed these people in,” [Trump lawyer Jay] Sekulow said on ABC’s “This Week,” referring to Trump’s protection detail as the Republican candidate. “The President had Secret Service protection at that point, and that raised a question with me.”Clearly the Secret Service should have protected the President from this meeting he says he didn't know about and from the people who attended who he says weren't important.
Trump Jr. arranged the meeting with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya after he was promised compromising information on Hillary Clinton as part of a Russian state effort to aid his father’s campaign.
Mason Brayman, a spokesman for the Secret Service, told Reuters in a statement that the Secret Service was not protecting Trump Jr. in June 2016 when he attended the meeting.
“Thus we would not have screened anyone he was meeting with at that time,” Brayman said.
And they should have protected Trump, Jr. from his own stupidity! (not that they would do that even now.)
Deep state!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They know that their base of support doesn't care if an excuse makes sense or is rational or even addresses the issue, they just need something to repeat, preferably leading back to a black man or a woman.
ReplyDeleteAnd the media has let them get away with handing out those lines.
I really think that the reason democracy is dying is because people stopped making an effective choice that the truth is better than a lie. And that began a long time ago and, especially as that attitude was promoted and given out in the media and through entertainment, it has gained the upper hand.
If you buy the lie, the lie will enslave you. That kind of truth in a short aphorism needs to be repeated as long as it will take to overturn the permission to lie.
