Fox News airhead on Trump team said Russia "threw the election" in email:
Trump Advisor Claimed In Email That Russia Had “Thrown The USA Election To Him”
But emails among top transition officials, provided or described to The New York Times, suggest that Mr. Flynn was far from a rogue actor. In fact, the emails, coupled with interviews and court documents filed on Friday, showed that Mr. Flynn was in close touch with other senior members of the Trump transition team both before and after he spoke with the Russian ambassador, Sergey I. Kislyak, about American sanctions against Russia…
On Dec. 29, a transition adviser to Mr. Trump, K. T. McFarland, wrote in an email to a colleague that sanctions announced hours before by the Obama administration in retaliation for Russian election meddling were aimed at discrediting Mr. Trump’s victory. The sanctions could also make it much harder for Mr. Trump to ease tensions with Russia, “which has just thrown the U.S.A. election to him,” she wrote in the emails obtained by The Times.
It is not clear whether Ms. McFarland was saying she believed that the election had in fact been thrown. A White House lawyer said on Friday that she meant only that the Democrats were portraying it that way.

Now, just because she said Russia threw the election doesn't mean Russia really accomplished that. She is, after all, an airhead and her opinion wouldn't have been based on anything substantial. An airhead TV President hired her based on seeing her on TV.
(Donald hires the best people, believe me, believe me. People are saying, how does he do it? He always hires the best, the very best. )
That's what he said a thousand times during the campaign. Which is meaningless. He's too stupid and shallow to know who is good.
Another note about McFarland. After Flynn was fired, Robert Harward was interviewed to be NS Advisor. He turned down the job because he was told he couldn't get rid of McFarland. |
