Further evidence, if anybody is willing to recognize it, that Donald Trump is the Empress's stalking horse:
The first clip below is more interesting, though, for what it tells you about where Hillary thinks the race is going and how much damage she thinks Trump is doing to the GOP as a party. Answer: Not much. Reporters want her to issue the requisite condemnation of Trump’s “blood” comment about Kelly, which she dutifully does, but she’s more interested in discussing Marco Rubio’s answer at the debate about opposing abortion exceptions for rape and incest. The Clintons, at least for now, are still betting that they have more to fear long-term from Rubio than from Trump; at the very least, they think Rubio’s comment might be seen by single women as representative of the party as a whole in a way that Trump’s remark about Kelly isn’t. [emphasis added]
Let's think about this for a minute. We know that whenever a Republican says anything the Left considers remotely "controversial," they pounce on it like like a pack of jackals on a lame zebra, and the Obamedia turns in into a public relations firestorm. Why? To tar the entire GOP with the taint, of course.
So, ipso facto, which of these two comments - Donald Trump lampooning Megyn Kelly's period, and Marco Rubio publicly embracing an almost-blanket pro-life stance - would seem to be the more "controversial" comment? Is it any surprise that Senator Rubio is pro-life? Not really. Can Hillary make much of a pro-life Republican presidential candidate taking a pro-life stance on abortion? To a degree, once supposes, but not all all that much. But Donald Trump, the "Republican frontrunner," making a remark about a female journalist shedding her uterine lining that dwarfs anything Todd Aiken or Richard Mourdock ever uttered? The entire Democrat-Media complex should be all over that 24/7 as proof of their "Republican war on women" meme. At least, that's what one would have reasonably expected.
But Mrs. Clinton knocked The Donald's filthy attack on Megyn Kelly like she was checking off a box, and then she was off and running on beating down the Florida junior senator. What can possibly explain this anomalous behavior?
Eeyore, as quoted above, interprets it as Her Nib seeing Rubio as a more likely GOP nominee than Trump. Which, in and of itself, may or may not be a reasonable prediction. But if she knows that Trump is in the GOP race to divide and wreck our party before departing for the independent/third party route, taking most of the Tea Party base with him, in order to open for her a clear and virtually unopposed path to the White House, it makes perfect sense. If Trump and the Clintons are in cahoots on this caper, why would she need to waste time and oxygen jumping up and down on The Donald? Her efforts would be far better spent ensuring that she can run up the score on the eventual, doomed, emasculated Republican nominee.
I'm telling you, as I will continue to tell you, Tea Party Trumpsters: Don't doubt me on this, and spare me the unwanted privilege of four years of "I told you so's". The wailing anguish you save will be your own.
UPDATE (8/11): Isn't Trump's entire campaign reputation based upon his not taking "guff" from anybody? Hitting right back whenever anybody criticizes him in the slightest about anything? "An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth"?
Apparently that adage needs to be amended to read "anybody except Hillary Clinton":
In an interview Tuesday morning on Fox & Friends, Trump twice went out of his way to criticize his competition. In the first instance, he took a question about his standing in polls and turned it into a blistering – and highly inaccurate – attack on Wisconsin governor Scott Walker. And in the second, Trump bypassed an opportunity to hit back at criticism from Hillary Clinton and chose instead to turn his answer into a shot at Jeb Bush…At a press availability in Exeter, New Hampshire, on Monday, [Mrs.] Clinton unloaded on Trump, calling his attacks on Megyn Kelly “outrageous” and “offensive” and saying Trump “went way overboard.” On Fox & Friends, Trump listened to a soundbite from that press conference, where [Mrs.] Clinton said she’d gone to Trump’s wedding because she thought it’d be “entertaining,” before turning serious. “Now that he’s planning to run for president? It’s a little more troubling.” Doocy said to Trump: “So she’s saying she went because it was the yuks, not the bucks.” Trump, who never misses an opportunity to respond to even the slightest perceived insults, shrugged off [Mrs.] Clinton’s shot. “Yeah, sounds like she feels she made a mistake,” he said with a deep laugh. “It’s sort of an interesting thing.” Trump repeated his claim that he simply gave money to buy access to politicians, but said now that he’s a politician he recognizes that the practice is “not really a good thing for the system.”After passing on a chance to hit [Mrs.] Clinton, [Trump] accused Bush of selling access to his donors. [emphases added]
Donald Trump didn't tweet out that "that old hag is such a loser!" or "Hillary has a penis!" or "The amount of real estrogen in her endocrine system is zippo!" The sum total of his vicious, Alpha Male counter-haymaker was...."It's sort of an interesting thing". And a "deep laugh".
Still think Trump and the Clintons aren't in cahoots?
