As Hillary continues to fall in the polls, she’s reaching
back in time to come up with something to support her case that Trump’s a
monster.
For a long time
Trump questioned whether Obama was born in the United States. So did a lot of
other people. It was understandable
given Obama’s strange lineage and where he at times lived as a child and with
whom. Plus, he and his campaign kept a tight lid on details of his background,
including his college admissions and academic records.
It’s all still somewhat suspicious to me.
That Trump and other so-called “birthers” questioned where Obama
was born, and whether he was actually a naturalized U.S. citizen, was seen by
the liberal media and Democrats as racist. That was only because Obama was
black. Obama finally did produce a birth certificate from Hawaii and for most
folks the issue was dead.
Yet Hillary just brought it back. And she added that anyone
who questioned whether “our first black President” was a U.S. citizen is unfit
to be President of the United States.
Call me cuckoo but anyone caught repeatedly lying to the
FBI, to Congress, to grieving parents, and who obstructs justice by
intentionally destroying evidence after it is subpoenaed is the one actually
unfit to be President. I’m not even going to go into the shady commodities
deals, Whitewater, the Rose Law Firm papers, Benghazi, the mysterious deaths of
key witnesses … nope, don’t need to.
Hillary and her supporters consider all that “old news.”
Which means, to them and their liberal media lackeys, been there, done that,
already addressed and not relevant anymore.
The classic example was when Bernie Sanders said to Hillary
in front of a cheering Democrat crowd that “nobody is interested in your damn
emails.” Old news, in other words.
It’s a standard Democrat ploy that instantly reminds you of
someone dismissing the deaths of four Americans in front of a Congressional
panel by saying: “What difference does it make now?”
Yet think about this for a minute: Hillary’s supporters are
going pretty far into the way-back machine to find something to trash Trump.
Some in the fawning media, and the usual far-left online trolls, recently tried
to make the case that Trump’s current wife – Melania – entered and worked in the
U.S. illegally in 1995; they also republished photos of Melania from a GQ shoot in 2000, well before she became Mrs.
Trump. Melania Trump’s immigration
lawyer issued a letter that debunked the first claim; the second attempt to
smear Trump also may have backfired. (She is undeniably hot.)
Somehow all this is fair game to Hillary and the Democrats.
And “new” news, worthy of investigation to raise doubts about Trump’s
fitness.
They are still dredging up past bankruptcies, interviews on
Howard Stern, disgruntled former vendors and employees and anyone – or anything
– they can use to destroy Trump’s credibility. They’ve even made a TV ad with clips taken from
the Republican primary debates – indeed a nasty slugfest – to make a claim that
even Republicans hate Trump.
All of which happened in the past – the “distant past” by Democrat
standards (longer than a few weeks). But there are obviously different standards
when fighting Republicans.
The whole birther resurrection came from a Washington Post
interview yesterday with Trump. Once
they had it back on the front burner, the media went to town, as did Hillary’s
campaign. The Trump campaign quickly responded that Obama was born in the U.S.
But for some reason Trump himself didn’t say that – and that gave the media and
Democrats (pretty much the same) all the room they needed to fire up the old
charges of racism.
Today, Trump was scheduled for an event at his new hotel in
D.C. The press salivated over this
opportunity to grill Trump on the birther issue and keep the flame alive; practically
every cable and online news show speculated on how he would handle the “controversy.”
Instead, Trump trotted out a series of Medal of Honor, Bronze
and Silver Star recipients, and retired generals and admirals, who gave
testimonials why Trump should be the next President. When Trump finally came up
at the end, he simply said that Obama was "born in the United States, period."
That was that. But on online and cable news shows
immediately afterward, spokespuppets for the Hillary campaign insisted that
Trump had done something wrong. They simply would not accept what they had been
demanding – Trump’s acknowledgement of Obama’s citizenship.
Tough shit, folks. That’s now old news.
So what’s next from the Hillary camp? Who knows.
Maybe an old 8mm home movie of Trump they can edit and take out of
context? Some old girlfriend he broke up with in high school? Maybe an
interview with one of the wives he divorced?
Hey, if they want to continue to play that game maybe
Republicans could respond in kind. Like
pulling up the records of why Hillary was kicked off the Watergate Committee. Playing
the tape of her laughing about how she got a rapist acquitted.
Or getting former White House Secret Service staff to do a
Swift-Boat type of commercial about what Hillary is really like. From published
accounts, that would be fun.
Personally, I’d like to have a paternity test run on Bill
and Chelsea to see who her real dad is.
Not because that has any bearing whether Hillary is qualified to be
President – I think I’ve already established how I feel about that – but just
to start a rumor she has to constantly deal with. I think that's only fair after her minions have gone after Melania, and just about as relevant to running for the Presidency.
I’d like a full investigation into where her ugly
pantsuits are made and by whom – I’m thinking Sears or JC Penney based on style and color – but I’m
betting those stores don’t have any clothing in the $15,000 price range.
Oh yeah, I’d also like to see a parade of Bill’s bimbos
Hillary publicly dissed as “trailer trash.”
Hillary started this. I think she’s going to regret it. She
has as many if not far more skeletons in her closet than Trump. However in her
favor is that people who can prove her misdeeds often disappear.
But that’s old news, right?
