The Washington Post<\/a> has a story today about Donald Trumps insulting Alicia Machado<\/a>, a former Miss Universe<\/a>. Just for kicks, I used the search engine at the Washington Post to see if they had ever posted a story about Juanita Broderick<\/a>. I got one recent story that recounted a discussion between Donald Trump<\/a> and Sean Hannity<\/a> on the issue. In case you have forgotten, Juanita Broderick was a Clinton campaign<\/a> worker who charged Bill Clinton<\/a> with rape many years ago. There is corroborating evidence that the charges are true and that Hillary Clinton<\/a> was involved in the efforts following the charges to make sure Ms. Broderick was discredited. So the Washington Post is more concerned about mean things Donald Trump said than Hillary Clinton’s veiled threats and attempts to ruin someone’s reputation. (And that’s not to mention what Bill Clinton did). Seems a little one-sided.<\/p>\n

But the story about Miss Universe did not suddenly arise. The Clinton campaign has been planning this–it was a set-up.<\/p>\n

The article at the Washington Post reports:<\/p>\n

— Operatives in Brooklyn had been working with Machado since the summer. They had a video featuring her story<\/a> ready to go. Cosmopolitan<\/a> had a photo spread of her draped in an American flag \u2013 to go with a profile \u2013 in the can. Machado had also conducted an interview with The Guardian that was \u201capparently embargoed for post-debate release,\u201d according to Vox<\/a>. And the Clinton super PAC Priorities USA turned a digital\u00a0ad<\/a> to highlight the insults by early afternoon.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Clinton press shop then set up a conference call for Machado to respond to what Trump said on \u201cFox and Friends.\u201d Speaking with reporters, Machado recounted how Trump \u201calways treated me like a lesser thing, like garbage\u201d and that his new words are like \u201ca bad dream.\u201d She said in a mix of Spanish and halting English that she watched the debate with her mother and daughter and cried as Clinton recounted her story, Ed O\u2019Keefe reports<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

To be honest, I have very little respect for the Clintons to begin with. I don’t have a tremendous amount of respect for Donald Trump, but I do respect what he has accomplished in the world of business. At least he is not corrupt to the core. He has a lot of room for improvement in some of the things he has said, but I can honestly say that he will at least try to do what is best for the country–his fortune is at stake! The Clintons exploited the office of President the last time they occupied the White House<\/a>–there is a GAO report on items taken or damaged when they left. Donald Trump does not need to loot the White House–he has accumulated enough on his own. This story disgusts me for two reasons–first of all, it shows that the Clinton campaign is willing to walk through any gutter to win–even old gutters, and second, it shows that the Trump campaign needs to be ready for all manner of dirty politics from the Clintons. That is not a happy place to be as an American voter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
