    huh. Interesting.
    Well, you know, they lost my luntil-then-ifetime-democratic-vote to Trump when they murdered Seth Rich in July of 2016 and I read the leaked meeting notes of HRC with Goldman-Sachs (and other globalist bankers). One story for the plebs, the real story for the bankers.

      But crafoo, like The Idiot Runaway1956 (2626), is not being sarcastic, they are actual idiots. It is like that scene in the battle between Freedonia and the other nations in the Marxist Bros. movie, when Grouch says: "The false consciousness of the lumpenproletariat in no way undercuts the authority of the dictatorship of the proletariat!" Wait, wrong script, oh, here it is: "He may talk like an idiot, and act like an idiot, but don't let that fool you, he really is an idiot!". That is Trump to a tea, or at a tee, or maybe his intellect is ti, and in the sum of the square roots of all the stupid people in America, cross-checked with the opinion of the Mighty Broussard, and funneled into the Brexist sap who had the good sense to ex-patriot himself off the merry old "France"? Holey crappola, crafoo, how do you expect to continue to exist on SoylentNews, when you post such crap, and have no redeeming qualities? Please, at least, explain to us how bit-coin is a real thing. That might be useful, or illegal.

    1. You don't know who murdered Seth Rich. Nobody does.
    2. Yup, the routine of telling the bankers one thing and the plebs something else was a problem. That said, you don't know who she was lying to, Goldman or the voters. Also, that's probably not a bigger problem than Donald Trump living in an alternate universe that changes from day to day. Had HRC been running against, say, Dwight Eisenhower, I would have voted for Ike.

      That decision is not difficult in any way to be honest.

      Had HRC been running against an inanimate carbon rod, I would have voted for the inanimate carbon rod.

        Unfortunately for all of us, she was running against someone who has demonstrated he can do a lot more damage than an inanimate carbon rod.

      Who has the money? Voters: nope. Wall St: yep.

      We know who she was lying to and anyone who doesn't is deluded.

      The motivation was certainly there, and it is by far the most powerful motivation of all realistic choices. The means was there. The circumstances contradict the official narrative. Are you asking people to believe in a highly unlikely coincidence? Do you apply this reasoning to all your positions, or just ones that support your particular internal narrative?
