democrats have spawned a new excuse for their yuuuge loss last month- fake news. Leading the chorus was one Hillary Clinton:
Hillary Clinton on Thursday decried the spread of fake news online, calling it an “epidemic” that Congress should take action against.
“The epidemic of malicious fake news and false propaganda that flooded social media over the past year — it’s now clear the so-called fake news can have real-world consequences,” Clinton said during a speech on Capitol Hill.
Clinton made these remarks while applying to join the Marines, disclosing that her all her grandparents were immigrants, being was named after Sir Edmund Hillary, reminding everyone that she was critical of the Iraq war before obama was , being dead broke, not sending or receiving classifed emails, reiterating that Benghazi attacks were caused by video, and all the while dodging sniper fire in Bosnia while talking to reporters.
Clinton was questioned by one of the reporters who asked: “What difference at this point does it make?”
Of course, we know what this fake news garbage is all about- censorship of the news sites which are disagreeable to democrats. An article in WaPo named many so-called “fake news” sites and now finds itself threatened with a law suit. It has appended the story, seemingly to apologize for itself using a fake news source.
democrats need a theme, a dead horse to beat- something that tends to be highly inflammatory and arousing strong emotions to galvanize their followers. With a black President, it was always racism. With a woman candidate for President, it evolved into white supremacy and misogyny. Failing with that, they seek a new canard to whip and censorship is on the menu. Veracity is unimportant- and there’s the irony. Their standard bearer was an inimitable source of fake news.
hillary and obama share one thing for sure- there’s always someone else to blame for their problems. It’s never that they just suck.
They do.
