Josh Earnest lied. Obama lied. Kerry took a dive. Hillary's puppets lied about Comey. But to her credit, Loretta Lynch did not lie - yet. But some of the others are backing away from the "Russia influenced the election" garbage.
Mike Huckabee explains:
Friend,
Even as White House spokesman Josh Earnest is ratcheting up his rhetoric, not only accusing Russia of interfering in the election but all but accusing Donald Trump of conspiring with Putin, others are backing away from the shakily-sourced original claim by the New York Times and Washington Post. Several security agencies have disputed it, Obama’s Director of National Intelligence won’t even talk to Congress about it, and even Secretary of State John Kerry, when pressed, replied, “I’m not going to comment on anonymous reports from intelligence officials that are not identified that have quotes around the concept of intelligence officials.”
The desperate attempt to claim that Russia somehow forced Americans to vote for Trump also doesn’t impress most voters. A Fox News poll found that 59% of Americans think that whatever Russia might or might not have done, it had no effect on the election. They didn’t vote for Trump instead of Hillary because of “fake news” or James Comey or the DNC email leak. They rejected Hillary because for the past 25 years, they’ve heard real news about her that the FBI investigation and the leaked emails only confirmed. And they voted for Trump because, while she was hanging with celebrities and calling him a deplorable sexist, racist, homophobic, Islamophobic xenophobe (and including millions of Americans in that slur), he was engaging with regular Americans and talking about bringing back jobs, enforcing the law and making America great again.
Also, please don't expect us to believe that Democrats who wanted Hillary Clinton to be President honestly think that keeping foreign powers from hacking government email servers is really very important.
Sincerely,
Mike Huckabee |
