Adding to the problem, there are often multiple Clinton scandals going on at once, leaving people confused over just what lurid details belong to which episode of misconduct. Consider the bombshell Wall Street Journal report this week, which was ostensibly about the FBI’s discovery of some new e-mails related to Clinton’s private server. Within the report, however, we learned that the Clinton Foundation is also under investigation by the FBI, and has been for some time.
Two major scandals in one single news article: it’s a swirling mixture of baffling, confusing, hopelessly complex impropriety. In other words, it’s the Clinton Lie Machine.
An American people tired of Clinton’s corrupt scandals and exhausted after a repulsive election season cannot readily be expected to digest the complex and loathsome political runarounds Hillary has constructed since last year. That’s the point: tell enough lies, lie enough about the lies you’ve already told, and people will lose interest out of simple confusion and irritation.
You could see the same phenomenon play out this past September, when Clinton had a health episode at the fifteenth September 11 anniversary. After a video surfaced of Clinton being literally dragged into a van, the Clinton Machine insisted she had merely overheated a little bit (on a 79-degree day, no less). Later, they claimed she was dehydrated. After that, they claimed she had a case of pneumonia, diagnosed a few days before she collapsed.
