44. Her responses when first accused were denial and making fun of Trump
Sat Mar 18, 2017, 07:41 AM
Mar 2017

When he first accused her of giving Hillary the answers and she was questioned by an interviewer, her flippant answer was along the lines of "you really think they would give me the questions in advance? I'm just not that important." It was crushing when Wikileaks proved her a liar. It put doubts in people's minds that maybe Trump wasn't so paranoid, and what else were the Democrats were lying about? The worst part was that eve if Hillary had seen her emails it wouldn't have mattered because she needed no help to win the debates anyway.
