Birther Schmerther: Trump Brings Up Vince Foster!
http://crooksandliars.com/2016/05/birther-schmerther-trump-brings-vince
Remember five years ago when Trump was a birther? It's classic Trump, and uses the same language he's using now.
I really want every single Republican who has even reluctantly endorsed this guy to stand up and tell me he's not insane and dangerous.
Trump is bringing up the suicide of Clinton aide Vince Foster during that administration and saying something is "very fishy" about it.
Really Donald? You have some very smart people who have told you this?
Donald Trump has decided to take over the news cycle with this ridiculous new/old conspiracy, one that even Whitewater "Prosecutor" Ken Starr said in 1997 was not true. But Starr's was the FOURTH Washington investigation on the matter, because Republicans go after the Clintons like that.

His would be the status quo 1% plutocracy with a helping of racist nonsense and international embarrassment.

(37,428 posts)Hillary Clinton's vulnerabilities are complucated, and not without nuance. All Trump can do is repeat tired right-wing talking points, suitably peppered with obscenities.

(2,064 posts)Trump will just be an ass.
But I think the public will respond to both. She's an easy target.

TwilightZone
(25,342 posts)She's one of the most politically savvy people around, and she understands that a united front after the nomination is official is going to be more important than a temporary bump to one candidate or the other in the primary process.
Meanwhile, she can still go after Trump, because that's in the best interests of Democrats (well, everyone, for that matter), regardless of the nominee.

(12,685 posts)people - not so much. There is NOTHING admirable about sitting on the sidelines as the nation burns. With people like Warren, we would have never won the Revolutionary War. Not impressed by sideline wimpiness.

(8,166 posts)That's the whole point of why they keep digging. The fact that so-called progressives pick up this right wing witch-hunt stuff and spew it forth as if it's fact is vulgar and disgusting.
Nothing of consequence ever sticks so the Clintons are either so smart that they beat the rap OR maybe they're not implicated in all the fake scandals.
Unfortunately, 30 years of Republican smears have unreasonably colored many voters' opinions with the result that Secretary Clinton has low approval ratings.
In any event, I'll vote a straight Democratic ballot this November.
no_hypocrisy
(45,774 posts)I see Trump having a political premature ejaculation, blowing his wad waaaaay too early. After going after Bill Clinton's affairs or whatever, Vince Foster, the e-mails, etc. now, he'll have nothing substantial left for post-convention campaigning. And he doesn't understand policy well enough to go after HRC or Bernie for merely not being republicans.
PearliePoo2
(7,768 posts)Scar was shocked that Trump was unloading his dirty arsenal so early. The panel all seemed disgusted that he was going so low and so far back for dirt.
The only thing I can think of for Trump to bring up next is what the panel hinted about a few days ago: the Jeff Epstein connection with Bill Clinton. But that could back-fire because Trump hung out with him too.
Meanwhile, the Democrats are just getting started and E. Warren is going to nail him all summer long and he is NO match for her!
Gawd...Donald Trump is such a narcissistic, bloviating pig...ugly in every possible way.
