Wait, what. When did Trump ever once concede he'd misrepresented anything? He rarely even "shrugged and moved on," as I recollect; typically he repeated his lie, doubling down where possible. |
This. He shouted "WRONG" and/or continued spouting every lie I ever saw him called on, and no one seemed to have a problem with that. Why did everyone allow him to shrug and go on lying without characterizing him as a lying liar who lies?
I agree with point #6 of the OP - she was never convincing with anything that wasn't her own policy/platform. When she adopted Bernie's "free college for everyone!" it was always through clenched teeth / flat affect. She couldn't pander convincingly at all.
