China, are you listening . . . ?
#1
LOL Hillary Clinton on Rachel Maddow Wednesday night made and interesting, tongue-in-cheek analogy.

Why limit foreign interference to Russia? She asked. Why not invite other foreign players into our election?

Imagine if the Democrat front runner said "China, are you listening? Why don't you get Trump's tax returns!"

That followed by a flurry of hacking activity at the IRS, and a day or two later the returns appear on some Wiki style website.

Hillary was calling attention to the strange acceptance of Trump's willingness to call upon and benefit from U.S. adversaries; suppose that were acceptable for Democrats as well. What would the effect be on U.S. elections? If it's acceptable for Trump, why not a Democrat?

The point was, of course, not to actually call for Chinese involvement, to place attention on the tacit acceptance of Trump's behavior on the formerly Russia-bashing right.

But Laura Ingraham saw it differently last night, replaying only the "call" and discussing how irresponsible such a move was--knowing that most Fox viewers would never check the full context
