60. It about their vote. That's the only power anybody has. Voting Republican is wasting power.

I've seen poor people vote Republican all my life. They go through life, unwittingly (and self-righteously) abetting the monopolization of wealth/power by those who wouldn't give them the time of day.

Their compelling slogan? "Vote Republican! Support your right to think you're better than you are! (...than they are)"

I think Nicolle Wallace's interview with Cassidy Hutchinson is the best yet. [View all] pnwmom Sep 2023 OP

is it up on YT yet? Recycle_Guru Sep 2023 #1

Don't know. I'm on the west coast watching it on MSNBC right now. pnwmom Sep 2023 #2

So far I've only found a clip of the last 12 minutes. Moosepoop Sep 2023 #48

I will watch this and look for others Recycle_Guru Sep 2023 #49

But you like Nicole best. Srkdqltr Sep 2023 #3

I don't buy her act jcgoldie Sep 2023 #4

She was just out of college, first generation, and came from a Republican family, pnwmom Sep 2023 #5

I agree. Pacifist Patriot Sep 2023 #6

I agree with you Deuxcents Sep 2023 #7

perhaps but she's not stupid jcgoldie Sep 2023 #9

She was in a cult, essentially. You don't understand how difficult it is to shake those bonds loose. pnwmom Sep 2023 #11

And she was so young. She did what she knew to do then. duhneece Sep 2023 #31

She knew. Not to mention the fact that she lied to the J6 committee when she testified. Autumn Sep 2023 #16

She followed the direction of her attorney, but then she regretted that and fired him. pnwmom Sep 2023 #22

So she didn't lie when she said she didn't recall... at J6 over 100 times? Alrighty. Autumn Sep 2023 #24

I'm not jealous if she succeeds with this book. The more people she can reach, the better. pnwmom Sep 2023 #32

she told the truth when she testified, she lied in depositions. Hamlette Sep 2023 #54

You are wrong. She admitted she lied in her earlier testimony. Autumn Sep 2023 #62

I stand corrected Hamlette Sep 2023 #64

Wrong. In her earlier testimony she lied. She admitted it in her book. Personaly Autumn Sep 2023 #63

my 9 year old daughter knew he was bad. edisdead Sep 2023 #39

Your 9 year old daughter was raised by YOU. Cassidy was raised by Republican parents pnwmom Sep 2023 #41

Well she is my step daughter edisdead Sep 2023 #46

Oh please inthewind21 Sep 2023 #65

it's a bit much comparing her toKevin. McCarthy MadameButterfly Sep 2023 #10

She's the one who brought up Kevin McCarthy jcgoldie Sep 2023 #12

I guess we just took different meaning from what she said. MadameButterfly Sep 2023 #69

I wasn't equating her with McCarthy jcgoldie Sep 2023 #70

I have seen some of her interviews and MOMFUDSKI Sep 2023 #34

I saw her on the view and I agree Tree Lady Sep 2023 #56

neither do i MistakenLamb Sep 2023 #61

Agree... Mike Nelson Sep 2023 #8

She grew up in a Republican family, and sent her resume all over Congress. pnwmom Sep 2023 #14

Agree MOMFUDSKI Sep 2023 #35

She just said that if Trump is the nominee PCIntern Sep 2023 #13

Yeah, I was disappointed, but she didn't rule out voting for the Democrat. pnwmom Sep 2023 #15

She said she might vote for a democrat or write someone in if Trump is triron Sep 2023 #68

Yeah what the fuck is right. She doesn't know what to do Autumn Sep 2023 #25

And nearly every Repub who turned on Trump has basically said the same thing Just_Vote_Dem Sep 2023 #29

Trumps values are theirs, that's why they won't turn on him. Autumn Sep 2023 #30

She clearly said she wouldn't vote for Trump. nt pnwmom Sep 2023 #33

I'm going to take her at her word since she's a republican. She doesn't know what to do so Autumn Sep 2023 #37

If you take her at her word, then you know she won't vote for Trump, because she said that. pnwmom Sep 2023 #42

I don't recall her saying that. She seemed to be saying, let's just hope he's not the nominee, ecstatic Sep 2023 #52

She said she wouldn't vote for any R candidate who didn't oppose Trump, AND she said this: pnwmom Sep 2023 #59

she was a bit more clear than that. it was clear she wouldn't vote for Trump. More importantly, wiggs Sep 2023 #27

Cassidy was not in the planning of Jan 6. Delmette2.0 Sep 2023 #43

In Rachel's interview, she mentioned that earlier she "adored" Trump dlk Sep 2023 #17

I don't give a damn what she was like in the past, gab13by13 Sep 2023 #19

True dlk Sep 2023 #20

Here is what I heard, gab13by13 Sep 2023 #18

Here is what she said... Moosepoop Sep 2023 #47

I liked the one on Lawrence and caught the last half hour on Nicolle. LiberalFighter Sep 2023 #21

Thanks for the heads-up. Torchlight Sep 2023 #26

Very insightful interview ... MiHale Sep 2023 #28

It was very good. Also impressed with Cassidy poise, and thoughtful responses. Fla Dem Sep 2023 #36

Republicans are only about aiding the wealthy. They are consistent on that. jaxexpat Sep 2023 #38

She came from a middle class family and was first generation college, so she didn't come from wealth pnwmom Sep 2023 #44

Hopefully time will let her become more blue. triron Sep 2023 #45

It about their vote. That's the only power anybody has. Voting Republican is wasting power. jaxexpat Sep 2023 #60

Who cares where she came from inthewind21 Sep 2023 #66

She worked in the White House less than two years, not four years. pnwmom Sep 2023 #67

Very good interview. Mr.Bill Sep 2023 #40

Absolutely Excellent nt trocar Sep 2023 #50

I saw part of it. NW went easy on CH after her ridiculous answer to the question ecstatic Sep 2023 #51

She said clearly she won't vote for Trump. What's wrong with her waiting to see how pnwmom Sep 2023 #55

Disagree about her being clear, but your second point is a good point. ecstatic Sep 2023 #57

Right. She's not needed to bring D's to the polls. But if she can get a significant number pnwmom Sep 2023 #58
