I cannot understand what Hillary supporters think that they can gain by this warped, twisted strategy. It makes absolutely no sense to tell outright lies about Bernie's Vatican invite when any rational person knows that it is going to be covered by every major journalist on the planet. Their lies will be called out.

So how do they think that they will get away with it? It's simple. They won't! So why do they persist in repeating the fucking bald-faced lies?

I just do not understand.

It is certainly not a way that I would promote my candidate.

Lying for Hillary. Somehow that fits. Poor Hillary supporters. Living with lies. I only hope we all don't have to live with that. What's worse, what if the polls are correct and she loses in November?

Poor us.
