Hillary foresees October surprise sure to ‘distort and pervert’ Kamala Harris

Deflection and obfuscation remained the name of the game for the twice-failed White House hopeful as she sat for a lengthy conversation with PBS’ Margaret Hoover. As she called for corporate media to maintain a “consistent narrative” about the supposed dangers of former President Donald Trump, she argued Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign would be victimized by “concerted efforts to distort and pervert” her personally and politically.

Late in the “Firing Line” discussion that kicked off with the former first lady contrasting freedom of the press “between autocracy and democracy,” Clinton made her prediction about an October surprise claiming, “There will be concerted efforts to distort and pervert Kamala Harris, who she is, what she stands for, what she’s done.”

Ignoring how her supporters had been tied to the origins of “birtherism” against then-Illinois Sen. Barack Obama (D) and the more serious implications of her 2016 bid for the presidency involving the Steele Dossier and concerns over her use of a private email server for classified files, the Democratic figure instead turned to “Pizzagate.”
