Geist: We Have to Remind People of the Facts Around McAuliffe and McCabe’s Wife

‘You do have to pause and insert facts into some of the comments that the president makes just to remind people’

EXCERPT:

GEIST: “People can draw their own conclusions from this. But when he says that Andrew McCabe’s wife, quote, essentially got the money from Hillary Clinton, it was a combination of Terry McAuliffe’s SuperPAC, Common Good VA. So that's a little bit of a reach. Terry McAuliffe, a friend of the Clintons who ran her campaign in 2008 and the Democratic Party of Virginia that totaled about $675,000. And he didn’t become deputy director of the F.B.I., Andrew McCabe, until February of 2016, well after her campaign had ended. So that’s when he had oversight over the Hillary investigation. You do have to pause and insert facts into some of the comments that the President makes just to remind people.”
