Definitely. Someone told me they think he's behind this. Arguable, but I wouldn't put it past him. ancianita Mar 2021 #70
Who stands to gain from getting rid of Cuomo. Nixie Mar 2021 #2
and our great old gal Gillibrand is all over it demtenjeep Mar 2021 #3
Gillibrand and Schumer, like many others, have called for an investigation Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #7
The thing about Gillibrand that people are forgetting, Nixie Mar 2021 #10
She couldn't have campaigned with Hillary Clinton Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #12
Look up Gillibrand and Hillary not on speaking terms. Nixie Mar 2021 #13
What help? Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #14
I'm talking about Gillibrand and her comments about Nixie Mar 2021 #15
Hillary campaigned for her in her first house race. nt BlueLucy Mar 2021 #50

Thank you for your common sense response. Yes, I do remember Bill and Hillary Nixie Mar 2021 #142
And I'm just pointing out that that Hillary Clinton Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #16
Actually, what you're doing is going off on an unnecessary direction that Nixie Mar 2021 #17
I'm just pointing out facts Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #18
Someone brought up Gillibrand and I responded. It's also a fact what Gillibrand said about Nixie Mar 2021 #19
Sure Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #20
It is a fact that Hillary's husband did. That's what the post was about. Not a tangent Nixie Mar 2021 #21
Hillary had no power to object to Gillibrand Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #22
Another tangent that has nothing to do with Gillibrand's comments about Nixie Mar 2021 #23
And Gillibrand's comments about Clinton Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #24
Except that now you're pretending this isn't about politicians being forced to resign Nixie Mar 2021 #25
Yes someone brought up Gillibrand Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #26
That's not what the poster said, either. Another unnecessary tangent. Nixie Mar 2021 #27
Bringing up Gillibrand was an unnecessary tangent Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #28
More deliberate obtuseness. de Blasio is a New York politician. Gillibrand is a New York Nixie Mar 2021 #29
Gillibrand/Clinton is a tangent Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #31
It's okay to admit that you don't understand the poster's reference to Gillibrand. Nixie Mar 2021 #32

It is factually correct what Gillibrand said about Bill Clinton resigning Nixie Mar 2021 #36
Never disputed what Gillibrand said Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #37
The Clinton donors are the same that Gillibrand used. Gillibrand needed their help Nixie Mar 2021 #38

The longest and most didactic subthread I've ever seen Dorian Gray Mar 2021 #81
Oh yeah, I've seen this for days. Which proves my point, as well. This really isn't Nixie Mar 2021 #82
😂 lol Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #88
Not what the article says Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #90
lol, I love your backtracking. I'll stick with the NYTimes assessment of Nixie Mar 2021 #91
No backtracking Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #93
That has nothing to do with my point. Nixie Mar 2021 #95
And the article doesn't say that Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #98
Gillibrand needed Hillary's donors to help win Hillary's senate seat. Nixie Mar 2021 #99
Donors, yes Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #101
Day Two: The point was Gillibrand's 2017 comments about Bill Clinton. That was the point, Nixie Mar 2021 #104
You original claim was false Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #107
The original point remains that Gillibrand accepted help from the Clintons Nixie Mar 2021 #109
Sure but Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #111
The original point remains that Gillibrand accepted help from the Clintons Nixie Mar 2021 #113
But this statement is not true Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #115
The original point remains that Gillibrand accepted help from the Clintons Nixie Mar 2021 #116
No I'm hung up on accuracy Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #119
No, you're hung up on a rabbit hole. The entire article shows exactly what Nixie Mar 2021 #120
No my point is that this claim is false Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #122
Your claim is a rather silly rabbit hole. We know Hillary didn't quit her job to Nixie Mar 2021 #124
So you admit that this claim is false Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #126
lol, that sentence changes nothing from the point I made. Of course I read Nixie Mar 2021 #127
This is your original post Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #129
lol, my original comment was to another poster, demtemjeep. That simple comment was understood Nixie Mar 2021 #132
My point is accuracy Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #134
Nothing you post changes what my point was, which you admit to Nixie Mar 2021 #135
Yet your original post says nothing about donors Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #137
My original post was to another poster who understood. You obviously don't. Nixie Mar 2021 #139
Your original post was on a public message board Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #141
you are omitting the context about Gillibrand's comments about Bill Clinton. Nixie Mar 2021 #145
Yes they did for the house seat Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #147
The claim was Gillibrand's comments about Bill Clinton Nixie Mar 2021 #148
Not disputing Gillibrand's comments Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #151
You keep omitting the context, which was Gillibrand's comments about Clinton. Nixie Mar 2021 #154
Doesn't change the fact Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #158
It doesn't change the fact that you are omitting the first sentence, Nixie Mar 2021 #160
Okay Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #165
You keep omitting the first sentence. The context was Gillibrand's comments about Bill Clinton. Nixie Mar 2021 #167
Maybe so Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #170
Definitely so. You are definitely trying to change the context, so you really aren't that Nixie Mar 2021 #176
Again not changing anything Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #178
So now you are forced to admit that the Clintons' did campaign for Gillibrand. Nixie Mar 2021 #152
Never denied that they campaigned for the house seat. Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #155
The context was Gillibrand's comments about Bill Clinton. You keep omitting Nixie Mar 2021 #157
Still doesn't change the fact that Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #162
You keep omitting the first sentence. The context was Gillibrand's comments Nixie Mar 2021 #166
Again Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #171
You keep trying to change the context, which is right there in the first sentence. Nixie Mar 2021 #173
Not changing anything Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #175
the context is in the first sentence. I'm just pointing out that what the context is Nixie Mar 2021 #177
Fine Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #179
Thanks for your concern, but it's not relevant. Nixie Mar 2021 #182
Maybe not to you Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #184
I'll stick with the NYTimes article about how much the Clintons' helped Gillibrand Nixie Mar 2021 #100
So will I and it says Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #102
None of this changes my point about Gillibrand's 2017 comments about Bill Clinton Nixie Mar 2021 #103
You're point is factually inaccurate Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #105
The point is that Gillibrand accepted help from the Clintons' and had no qualms about Nixie Mar 2021 #106
Fine Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #108
The original point remains that Gillibrand accepted help from the Clintons Nixie Mar 2021 #110
Don't rewrite the article Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #112
The original point remains that Gillibrand accepted help from the Clintons Nixie Mar 2021 #114
No the article says people who supported Clinton Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #117
The article talks about how much help Gillibrand got from the Clintons Nixie Mar 2021 #118
No it says how much help Gillibrand got from Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #121
You're rewriting the entire article to fit into one fairly silly rabbit hole. Nixie Mar 2021 #123
No your original claim was Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #125
My original point was that the Clintons' helped Gillibrand and then she turned Nixie Mar 2021 #128
No your original claim was Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #130
It's not false that the Clintons' helped Gillibrand. Your rabbit hole is trying to make Nixie Mar 2021 #131
But the claim Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #133
The claim was that people are forgetting that Gillibrand's comments about Bill Nixie Mar 2021 #136
Not insinuating anything Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #138
You are omitting the part about Gillibrand's comments about Bill Clinton. Nixie Mar 2021 #140
I never said anything about Gillibrand's comments Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #143
You are omitting the context. The context was Gillibrand's comments about Nixie Mar 2021 #146
Not at all confused Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #149
You keep omitting the first sentence. The context was Gillibrand's comments Nixie Mar 2021 #150
Irrelevant to the fact that Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #153
You keep omitting the first sentence, which is the context. The Clintons' Nixie Mar 2021 #156
Does not change the fact Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #159
It doesn't change the fact that Gillibrand accepted help throughout Nixie Mar 2021 #161
Maybe so Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #163
You keep omitting the first sentence. The context was Gillibrand's Nixie Mar 2021 #164
Fine Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #168

Nope included it Dem4Life1102 Mar 2021 #172
The context is there in the first sentence. You are ignoring the context in Nixie Mar 2021 #174
