EdgarusQPFC Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/1120 There is a rather vague part in the attachment talking about their strategy regarding the GOP, i say vague as it looks as if part of the text is missing " We need to be elevating the Pied Piper candidates so that they are leaders of the pack and tell the press to them seriously. " The part im interested in is "Tell the press" It could hint at the Clinton camp having the press in their pockets, which is something we already know. There is also this little snippet "Our Goals & Strategy Our hope is that the goal of a potential HRC campaign and the DNC would be one-in-the-same: to make whomever the Republicans nominate unpalatable to a majority of the electorate. We have outlined three strategies to obtain our goal: 1) Force all Republican candidates to lock themselves into extreme conservative positions that will hurt them in a general election; 2) Undermine any credibility/trust Republican presidential candidates have to make inroads to our coalition or independents;3) Muddy the waters on any potential attack lodged against HRC. " The part wikileaks is most interested in is that the Clinton camp were preparing strategy for Donald Trump before he had even put in his Nomination, although that is not surprising TBH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That all looks like a sensible and legitimate political strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strichener Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 1 hour ago, welshbairn said: Links please. To my knowledge she could neither action a drone strike or prevent one. The responsibility is with the President. http://www.wsj.com/articles/clinton-emails-in-probe-dealt-with-planned-drone-strikes-1465509863 Quote In 2011, Pakistani officials began to push back in private against the drone program, raising questions for the U.S. over the extent to which the program still had their consent. U.S. diplomats warned the CIA and White House they risked losing access to Pakistan’s airspace unless more discretion was shown, said current and former officials. Within the administration, State Department and military officials argued that the CIA needed to be more “judicious” about when strikes were launched. They weren’t challenging the spy agency’s specific choice of targets, but mainly the timing of strikes. The CIA initially chafed at the idea of giving the State Department more of a voice in the process. Under a compromise reached around the year 2011, CIA officers would notify their embassy counterparts in Islamabad when a strike in Pakistan was planned, so then-U.S. ambassador Cameron Munter or another senior diplomat could decide whether to “concur” or “non-concur.” Mr. Munter declined to comment. Diplomats in Islamabad would communicate the decision to their superiors in Washington. A main purpose was to give then-Secretary of State Clinton and her top aides a chance to consider whether she wanted to weigh in with the CIA director about a planned strike.

Ad Lib Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I'm reasonably certain that Trump will bring up the Broaddrick rape allegation tonight. He's been trailing it all day. If he just comes flat out and says "Bill raped Broaddrick and Hillary pressurised her not to report it to the police" then I honestly have no idea how Clinton is supposed to respond. 1. If she says "it's nonsense" she has a problem for being seen to victim-blame, regardless of whether it is in fact nonsense. 2. If she takes the high-road, she will be accused of evading the accusations. 3. If she admits there is something (nay, anything) in it, she's thrown her husband under a train. This is the kind of stuff literally no other candidate would ever raise in a debate but with Trump you just don't know. I have to say it sticks in the craw a bit to see Breitbart, an Alt-Right shock-jock outfit that dedicates its entire output to being the opposite of and to rile "Social Justice Warriors", who mock feminism and engage in, and even lionise, rape apology type stories and opinion pieces, basically operating as a propaganda arm to accuse HRC of victim-blaming. If Clinton had no class she would of course refer to the affidavit of Trumps' divorce proceedings that originally saw his then wife state that he had raped her, before he leant on her to withdraw the allegation, or the testimonies of a number of Trump's former business associates who complained of sexual assault, sexual harassment and attempted rape, but with other much lower hanging fruit she won't touch stuff that the mainstream media aren't interested in.
