      Yup, it plays well with his audience - she’s just a poor stay at home mom doing her best to take care of her kids, and the evil radical left is dragging her into their witch hunt, harming her kids

      Yeah it’s bullshit, but it’s good bullshit

          Disagree. It makes them look like victims. Which is exactly what their followers want.

            Her husband gave up untold US security secrets for $2 billion. Anyone paying attention won’t be swayed by the childcare bit.

                I’ve repeated this story a million times since 2016.

                Right after the election, there was a panel discussion. They invited the creators of all the top political TV shows. VEEP, House of Cards, The West Wing, Scandal, etc. All the producers/writers said the same thing : if they’d had a TV character say that he ‘liked soldiers who didn’t get captured’ the netowrks and advertisers would have demanded that the character be shown to be hated and despised by all Americans.

              Possibly also responsible for a number of deaths occurring because of what sensitive information those files contained. I imagine we will know more about the later when James is done squeezing the juice out of orange fatsy.

            Actually, it makes them look dumb. But it seems to me, that the majority of the US American society simply believes whatever they want and fits their agenda
