Wednesday on MSNBC, Rep. Adam Schiff claimed of President Trump that there is “no tactic beneath him, no bigotry too great, no racist appeal too much, no political dirty trick beyond the pale.”
Asked if Trump helping Kanye West to run for president in order to undermine Joe Biden is a “dirty election trick,” Schiff replied, “It falls into the basket of a president of the United States who will break any law, rule, abuse of power of his office, who will cheat, and no strategy is beneath him. You know, this idea of recruiting a third party candidate that you hope will siphon votes from your opponent, it is an old ploy, but it is among the dirtiest of the dirty tricks…”
“This is where the president has descended to low, no tactic beneath him, no bigotry too great, no racist appeal too much, no political dirty trick beyond the pale,” Schiff added. “And the terrible thing is the Republicans in the Congress won’t say a word. They are watching their party destroyed. They’re watching the ethics of the party leader just tear their party asunder, and they don’t have the guts to do anything or say anything about it. That’s what enables this.”
Complaining about dirty tricks is pure hypocrisy and projection from the party known for the politics of personal destruction and voter fraud.
