With lawfare failing to move the needle, House Democrats take their war on Trump to a more dangerous level

Last week, Hillary Clinton joined attorney Marc Elias on his Defending Democracy podcast. Elias, you may recall, famously hired opposition research firm Fusion GPS and laundered Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee funds through his law firm, Perkins Coie, in April 2016 to pay for the creation of the Steele dossie

In her typical inflammatory fashion, Clinton said, “[Former President Donald] Trump is, like, gaga over [Russian President Vladimir] Putin because Putin does what he would like to do: Kill his opposition, imprison his opposition, drive journalists and others into exile, rule without any check or balance.

“That’s what Trump really wants,” Clinton continued. “And so we have to be very conscious of how he sees the world because, in that world, he only sees strongmen leaders. He sees Putin, he sees [Chinese President] Xi [Jinping], he sees Kim Jong Un in North Korea. Those are the people he is modeling himself after.”

Clinton was simply doing what Democrats always do: accusing their enemies of doing and thinking precisely what they are actually doing and thinking.
