JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: NEWSPAPER HEADLINES ABOUT TRUMP THREATENING CLINTON IN THE DEBATE - A PROPAGANDA GIMMICK REPEATED BY A NUMBER OF ESTABLISHMENT PAPERS


COMMENT POSTED TO A COLUMN IN THE INDEPENDENT


"Threaten" is not the right word.

"Promised" is far closer to the mark, but it doesn't make quite the sensational anti-Trump headline does it?

The fact is, Hillary broke a whole list of laws in her term as Secretary of State.

Some of them are glaringly obvious to even a non-legal mind.

But an ineffectual FBI Obama-appointee Director, who reports to an ineffectual Obama-appointed Attorney General, who had held a secret airport meeting with good old Bill, chose to lay no charges.

This was corruption in its purest form at the highest level.

But it just can't compare, can it, to some lewd, locker-room remarks secretly recorded by a schmuck more than a decade ago.

Well, the press may not get it, but an awful lot of the public does.
