Trump's Campaign Manager Offered Her Most Brilliant Defense Yet of Trump's Lies

How can it be a lie if you don't know which facts are true?

By Jack Holmes

Sep 26, 2016

We have entered post-reality politics. Donald Trump said last week that NBC's Lester Holt, the moderator for tonight's presidential debate, is a Democrat. The implication was that, like the rest of the liberal mainstream media, Holt would be biased against Trump and that's the only reason he could lose.

"By the way, Lester is a Democrat," Trump said in an interview with Bill O'Reilly. "It's a phony system. They are all Democrats. It's a very unfair system."

Almost immediately, various outlets looked into it and discovered Holt is actually a Republican.

But no matter. Trump's campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, joined MSNBC's Morning Joe today, and Mark Halperin asked her about Trump's issues with the truth—namely, that he doesn't seem bothered with telling it. Halperin brought up the Holt example, and Conway let loose one of the more extraordinary defenses of blatant lying there ever was.

I am watching the debate and we shall see who wins.

Neither won the debate; in fact, Hillary won on the fact that she had the stamina to stand and debate for 90 minutes without appearing to have some medical problem, without showing signs of collapsing, appearing to have dementia, or act crazy, all or any of which I kind of expected. If Hillary has a medical problem or the start of dementia, she certainly failed to show it during the debate.

Unless, before the election, Hillary proves of have a real medical problem or dementia, the demographics favors her to such an extent that I am now convinced she will be the next president. Before the debate, I believed Trump would win.

Here's my take on it now. If the economy collapses before election day, then I hope Trump wins. If it doesn't, I hope Hillary is seated as I want it to happen on her watch. Trump will be blamed for it otherwise. He'd be the perfect fall guy. Surely he knows that?

I believe you express it as well as anyone can. I believe the economy will collapse but it is not likely to happen before the election. Certainly, after a collapse, whoever and whichever party is in office will be blamed.

I believe if Trump should somehow be elected and the collapse occurs after the election but before he takes office on (I believe about January 20), then the Obama and the democrats would be blamed. And, likely Obama would be blamed if a collapse occurs during the first 3 months of a Trump administration. However, after that, I agree Trump will be the perfect fall guy and I believe the Federal Reserve will do all in their power to delay any collapse until then.

The Fed will delay any collapse until they run out of paper and ink to print any more fiat currency.

According to the information I've seen, the Dollar is doomed. It may not affect the average person in the U.S., but the new mode of exchange will be Special Drawing Rights (SDR).

According to the Soviet economist, Nikolai Kondratiev, the Dollar has run its course as the world reserve currency. Stalin had Kondratiev killed because he understood how the domestic economy worked. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kondratiev_wave

the economy will collapse

No reason for US economy to collapse; enough skilled manpower and resources available to meet needs of consumers, actually more than enough looking at the acres of autos for sale and 40% of food production going to dump.

Collapse could be deliberately instigated as in the case of Soviet Union to enable Jews to buy up assets at bargain prices but they don't have enough control in America's corporate sector to do this.
