Hillary Clinton Camp To Donald Trump: 'Hell No' On Apology
Source: CNN 4:52 PM ET, Mon December 21, 2015 |
Hillary Clinton will not apologize to Donald Trump for saying that his comments disparaging Muslims were being used in ISIS videos to recruit terrorists. Earlier Monday, Trump demanded that Clinton apologize to him for her comment.
"Hell no. Hillary Clinton will not be apologizing to Donald Trump for correctly pointing out how his hateful rhetoric only helps ISIS recruit more terrorists," Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon said Monday afternoon.
"I will demand an apology from Hillary," Trump said Monday on NBC's "The Today Show." "I will demand an apology from Hillary, she should apologize. She lies about emails, she lies about Whitewater, she lies about everything. She will be a disaster as President of the United States."
Clinton made the claim during Saturday night's Democratic debate, but a spokeswoman later said they did not have a specific video of ISIS using clips of Trump disparaging Muslims, but instead pointed to social media comments from ISIS recruiters.

She is no more a liar than any of us. No more or less dishonest than any of us.
I'm a Bernie supporter but it is pure SHIT to trash ANY democratic candidate.

(3,426 posts)You will notice it says here :
"She will be a disaster as president of the United States "
Now, I think that's a lie and that is not what it says here but I cannot say what it says here because apparently from what I am told calling all the voters stupid will actually destroy me !
Now, I don't believe I actually said she will be a disaster as president of the United States ,I think I was misquoted by the lying media. I mean I could have made what I might call a Trumponeyian slip ,which couldn't be further from the truth even if I do say so. But I think the media owes me an apology even if I did slip ,it's not my fault. Truth is I'm in to win, at the very least I think I am sure about that !
I never expected to win this one with one stroke for a hole in one ,no I'm in for the full 18 holes -stay the course.
By the way I talked to Santa Claus the other evening,he's an ok guy ,I gave the clearance, he's on the right side of things.

(21,795 posts)If a candidate is a draft dodger running against a decorated war hero, call the war hero a coward and his decorations "phony".
If a candidate has a past as a businessman who has bankrupted several companies, call out his opponent as someone who has no business experience.
If a candidate is close personal friends with the Saudi Royal Family that is sponsoring terrorists around the world, accuse the opponent of "looking like a Frenchman".
If a candidate is President during the worst terrorist attack in our nation's history, call out his opponent as being "weak on terror".
If a candidate cuts taxes on the rich and racks up the most deficit spending in our nation's history, attack his opponent as a "tax and spender".
And so for Trump, if you are an uncontrollable serial liar and misinformer, demand your opponent apologize for "lying" about a statement that I believe will prove true. The conflict hungry press will eat it up.

(3,426 posts)Ok,
so I'm being advised not to call voters dumb dumbs or indicate in any way I think that, I would never think that !
My first impression of what it says here regards to that is what the hell kind of advice is this ?
I say whatever I want to say, that's the deal. It says here my opponents will go down that avenue and find that avenue leads to a dead end - insult to voters intelligence and pack in for sure . I thought, this is nuts !
But than Christie seems to be heading down that avenue , see what he says here,
I don't think this is something where we should be afraid of someone because of what religion they practice or how they look.
The fact is what you need to be afraid of is not having the intelligence to know the difference.This is coming from a guy who says he is a catholic but happens to disagree with the pope .

Chris Christie making moves in New Hampshire
9 Comments Shares Tweets Stumble Email More +
NEW HAMPSHIRE -- In the presidential campaign, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is making a move in New Hampshire -- with the Republican primary less than two months away.
A town-hall in Pelham marks Chris Christie's 41st in New Hampshire.
Since the terrorist attacks in Paris and San Bernardino, Christie has noticed a tidal shift in anxiety -- 75 percent of his questions now are about terrorism -- triple what they once were.
"As politicians we need to be responding to that fear," Christie said.
CBS News rode on the Christie bus and askedhim if fear can get the best of people.
"I don't think this is something where we should be afraid of someone because of what religion they practice," Christie said.
Or how they look?
"Of course. It goes hand in hand," Christie said. "The fact is what you need to be fearful of is not having enough intelligence to know the difference between a jihadist and a peaceful Muslim."
CBS News asked Christie how to do that, "You first of all ramp back up the NSA program which should never have been taken down. You give real support to the FBI," he said.
The Donald Here :
Christie cannot tell the truth because he is a well trained lier and for a lier to become well trained the lier must be a natural born lier to begin with. Or what is a habitual lier .
If they don't understand what it is really than the question must be raised why is that ?
What simply must come to mind first and right off the bat is, could it be the lack of so called intelligence is really keeping those people ill informed ? But Christie is saying be afraid of being stupid . That's not too smart is it ?
Than there is Cruz, Rubio and Bush ,what A band wagon ,the four of them heading down that same road.
Just might be a good piece of advice in what it says here, The thug just can't say we really have to think smart about it, he can't say it because he thinks he is way far above the very people he try's to reach out to. What a dumb dumb.
Stay tuned folks ,great entertainment ahead !

(3,426 posts)Can you believe this ? I can;t believe this, look at what Hillary said here ,I mean how does she know about what it says here, she can't know what says here because what it says here is for my eyes only . Somehow I think i've been robbed , look at what she said today, she said WE, I can't believe what she said came straight out of what it says here, make matter worse she said it before I did. I've been robbed . I have my sights set on a grand slam what that Jeb?, he's no contest, but I figured with the we angle I could knock one out of the ball park taking out Cruz, Rubio, Christie and Hillary all at the same time with a single swing. Have that bull dog in the cage too. This is disgusting ,it is despicable, I just can't talk about it,no don't say it, it's too terrible .
"We shouldn't let anybody bully his way into the presidency, because that is not who we are as Americans," Clinton told a crowd at a school in Keota, Iowa.

Trump under fire for sexism after vulgar Clinton jibes
Washington (AFP) - Republican frontrunner Donald Trump found himself accused of sexism again Tuesday after he coined a vulgar new term of abuse while attacking rival Hillary Clinton.
Whipping up a raucous crowd of supporters in Michigan on Monday night, Trump's scorn for his Democratic rival took a sexually graphic and personal turn.
Recalling the 2008 presidential race, in which Hillary lost out to Barack Obama in the battle for the Democratic nomination, the billionaire real estate mogul appeared to reach for a Yiddish term.
"She was favored to win and she got schlonged. She lost, I mean she lost," he said, apparently turning the noun "schlong" -- a penis -- into a verb.
Then, with the partisan crowd cheering him on, he turned to an incident on Saturday when Clinton returned late to a televised debate after a bathroom break.
"I know where she went, it's disgusting, I don't want to talk about it," Trump said. "No, it's too disgusting. Don't say it, it's disgusting."
