So long as President Trump continues disgracing the Oval Office, thoughtful people will probe their own role in helping him get there.

Such appeared to be the motivation behind a mea culpa issued by CNN senior legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin on comedian Larry Wilmore’s “Black on the Air” podcast.

In a discussion of presidential politics, Wilmore argued that Hillary Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2016, was the victim of a “coordinated attack” coming from Republicans.

“Benghazi was … the expression of that attack. In fact, what’s his name, was it [former Rep. Jason] Chaffetz who actually kind of agreed that that’s what they were doing, was weakening her as a candidate.”

(Wilmore may have been referring to Rep. Kevin McCarthy, who said in 2015, “Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right? But we put together a Benghazi special committee, a select committee.
What are her numbers today? Her numbers are dropping.”)

No question about the attack on Clinton, responded Toobin, citing “all that bogus stuff about the Clinton Foundation” — perhaps a reference to the Uranium One story or even to the pre-election reporting of Bret Baier — later withdrawn — that there would be an indictment relating to the foundation.

1. Too late for your mea culpa, Toobin.

Your place in Hell is firmly established and your name is no longer good. So, P*ss Off

3. Yup. Odd how many mea culpas wer're hearing lately.

Media & Money & looking out for their own skin was the priority in 2015/16.

They didn't give a shit about this country, nor the future of its citizens.

These useless mea culpas are bull shit. Their self enrichment, Money & Media, bought them all a secure place where the rest of America will have to figure out how to exist on their own.

Money & Media. You have to be one big lying asshole to be proud of selling out millions of people.
And they're still doing it, so stick that mea culpa where it belongs.
