Turley: Clinton Gave a Green Light to Gaslight the American Electorate

TRANSCRIPT:

TURLEY: "Well, that last point is particularly curious because we know now that the Clinton campaign was behind both the Steele dossier, which they secretly funded and hid that funding, and also the Alfa Bank allegations. And in both cases those were pushed to the FBI, pushed to the CIA, and most importantly, pushed to friends in the media. And what’s really quite breathtaking in this case, is that Hillary Clinton greenlighted the release of this claim, even though the campaign was told that there were serious problems with what they were alleging. But she greenlighted it and then told the public something that was pretty much untrue, right? She went on to Twitter and said hey, Slate just ran a story that there is this connection through Alfa Bank. She and Jake Sullivan, now the National Security Advisor, basically pretended to the public that this was all news to them, and that they were breathless at this new disclosure when the campaign created this scandal and it was totally unfounded."
