As a senator, Barack Obama was not smart enough to convince some twenty odd senator to vote for him for party leader rather than the both cranky and senile Dirty Harry Reid. Yet the left would have us believe that Obama, or as I call him Dim Won, was some major intellect.
More over just smart does one have to be to become chair of a grievance studies department at Princeton? I guess having an IQ somewhere around Dim Won’s average line of bowling. from Mark Finkelstein, Legal Insurrection [1]:
Now, in the waning days of a Dem presidency, a touching trust in the judgment of the president is in evidence on the left. On today’s Morning Joe, Prof. Eddie Glaude Jr., chair of Princeton’s African-American studies department, said he is “struck” that anyone would question President Obama’s judgment that sanctions against Russia are warranted. After all, argued Glaude, the president “has sworn to protect this country.”
The time time line according to David Burge a/k/a Iowahawk, via Clarice Feldman [2]:
- John Podesta, like 100% of everyone who has ever had a email account, received a password phishing email. He fell for it.
- According to some accounts, the phishing email had Russian fingerprints/characteristics in its metadata.
- Whatever the case, the password purloiners downloaded his emails, which eventually got into the hands of Wikileaks, who made them public.
- The emails were mildly embarrassing, revealing frequent circle jerking between the DNC and journalists. Mostly embarrassing to media.
- At the time of their release (Oct) they were hardly covered by any media, and largely dismissed as a big fat nothingburger.
- Not one of the people whose emails were revealed has ever disputed their authenticity or provenance.
- Fast forward to December. The October nothingburger has now magically transformed into “vote hacking” and “election hacking.”
- New narrative: treasonous Trump operatives conspired with Putin to hypnotically mesmerize Clinton voters into pulling the wrong lever.
- This is not Alex Jones or angry conspiracy kook Facebook uncles, it’s the NYTs, the WaPo, our beloved State Radio.
- How effective has this been? If polls are to be believed, 50%+ of Democrats believe the Russians literally modified vote tallies.
There is no need to invoke a conspiracy for can be better explained by stupidity. The Clinton campaign either had no clue on how to protect information, or no interest in doing so.
As for motivations, Dim Won knew everything in October but wasn’t motivated to act until after Mrs. Clinton lost the election.
China hacked into a million government records and Dim Won does nothing. John Podesta falls for a phishing scam and Dim Won expels thirty-five Russian diplomats.
