RUDY GIULIANI BLAMES “LIBERAL MEDIA FOR DEMONIZING DONALD TRUMP!”

…Crazy Rudy Giuliani talking about Hillary Clinton

 

 

The Donald is backing down on some “Building the Wall” issues and his vow to deport 11 million illegal immigrants.

 

If you really want to understand the Fox News system, your required reading should be the book: FOX NATION vs REALITY.  The sub-titles include: “How Fox News Deceives and Controls Their Flock”, and: “The Fox News Cult Of Ignorance”.

 

As Donald Trump's campaign continues to implode, his surrogates are stepping up the effort to make him look less like a narcissistic imbecile.  They are learning that this is a lot harder than anyone had ever imagined.

 

Yes, he has now started using a Teleprompter for his less than brilliant speeches.  And yes, he once said that using a Teleprompter, “should disqualify any political candidate”.  In addition, Trump still continues to embarrass himself in a very public manner.  (Now, he’s backing down on some “Building the wall” issues and his vow to deport 11 million illegal immigrants.)

 

With all this, and his total lack of an organized ground game, this is causing his clean-up crew of surrogates to become even more inventive and creative.

 

Today on Fox News, former New York Mayor, Rudy Giuliani made the assertion that Hillary Clinton wasn't even campaigning.  The Fox Host, Shannon Bream then asked him, "Then why is she doing so well in the polls?"

 

With that, Giuliani went bananas!

 

He delivered a totally incoherent response blaming the so-called "liberal" media that "constantly demonizes Donald Trump." Never mind the recent Harvard study that proved "Clinton had by far the most negative coverage of any candidate." But Giuliani went off the rails when he ventured into conspiracy theories about Clinton's health.

 

Per Rudy: "The media fails to point out several signs of illness by her. All you got to do is go online ... Go online and put down 'Hillary Clinton illness' and take a look at the videos for yourself."

 

The problem with this is that he was totally serious.

 

Giuliani's approach to his clinical diagnoses of Hillary is to just consult – Google!

 

First of all, none of the so called, "doctors" practicing on the Internet have examined, or even met, Clinton.  Secondly, the medical opinions you're likely to encounter online come from such experts as Alex Jones of Info-wars, the Drudge Report, Glenn Beck, and of course, Fox News.

 

What brain affliction would allow Giuliani to think that Googling: "Clinton's illness" would validate his ludicrous claims?

 

As for Fox News, Sean Hannity has now slandered Clinton with a week-long list of fact-less blather and made up health crises.

 

Steve Doocy of Fox & Friends called her prescription glasses “a sign of brain damage.”

 

Trump spokesperson: Katrina Pierson has now alleged that Clinton has dysphasia.

 

Not to be left out, Trump has lately been saying that Clinton "lacks the mental and physical stamina to take on ISIS."  It's very clear that Trump's "brain trust” has opted to surrender the policy debate and attack Clinton's health instead.

 

For the record, Clinton’s actual doctor released a statement saying that "Secretary Clinton is in excellent health and fit to serve as president of the United States." Now that's pretty good, of course it doesn't compare with the note from Trump's doctor declaring that he will be "the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency."

 

Now, how Trump’s Doctor knows all that, without having examined every other president was not explained.

 

But, you will have to admit that it sounds very much like something Trump himself would say. Could he be pretending to be his own doctor like he years ago pretended to be his own publicist?

 

Giuliani's belief in the Internet's infallibility must be a Republican trait. Trump has a similar reverence for “online truthiness”.

 

Only months ago, Trump appeared on Meet the Press where anchor Chuck Todd pressed him to acknowledge that a video that he posted on Twitter was a hoax.

 

Trump squirmed uncomfortably while seeking a plausible denial, finally settling for this lame disavowal: “All I know is what’s on the Internet.”

 

From a potential Commander-in-Chief perspective, I would hope that was not his low standard for knowledge, but it appears it is. 

 

However, this does seem to be a recurring pattern with Trump and his surrogates . In the absence of facts to support their increasingly bizarre allegations, they settle for fantastical fables they find online. It's a de facto admission that they simply don't care about truth anymore.

 

But come to think of it, they really never did.
