9. A distraction

This is similar to flaming. Hillary lies about Bernie's record on bailing out auto industry and then start flaming to avoid being called out for her lie. What is being hidden in the role Bill and Hillary played in passing NAFTA and deregulating banks that destroyed jobs and factories in Michigan. You attack your opponent on your greatest weakness.

TYT needs to be careful of getting caught in the Clinton's campaign plan of misinformation and cover up. This is a perfect example of wag the dog.
