You just said the narrative was "Clinton said Gabbard was a Russian operative". I explained that Clinton still called her an asset so you responded with: "[Clinton] said Gabbard was an asset who was being groomed by the Russians".

The NYT was wrong in saying that Clinton said Russia was grooming her. They and no one else is wrong in saying that Clinton implied that she was a Russian asset. Clinton's spokesman's response was "well if the nesting doll fits" and then explicitly stated that she believes Gabbard is "an asset to Russia".

Saying she is "an asset to Russia" implies differently than "she is a Russian asset"...but I really don't even care. 

Clinton wasn't wrong and Gabbard and the Russian bots showed that...so I'll grant that I didn't understand the initial hubbub about what Clinton said and I'm wrong in how I am presenting that the story was changed in the wording to make it seem like Clinton was saying Gabbard was working for Russia to undermine the Democrats and still say that it's funny that the Right can't get over the 2016 election and are still running against Clinton.  

And now I've said I was wrong and misunderstood something so I'll wait for the wet noodle lashing....
