ABC Panel Erupts Into Chaos After Chris Christie Dismantles the Credibility of Jan. 6 Committee

[The5thHorseman]

What lie about a crime? Trump held a rally because he felt something was wrong with the election. He's allowed to say that again, under his constitutional right to free speech.

Ray,

Given that you have made a deliberate effort to avoid learning the details, stop sharing your fictions.

Christie lays it out. The committee is a kangaroo court:

ABC Panel Erupts Into Chaos After Chris Christie Dismantles the Credibility of Jan. 6 Committee

redstate.com

​

​

Former Gov. Chris Christie created a firestorm on ABC News’ “This Week With George Stephanopoulos” on Sunday, with what he had to say about the Jan. 6 Committee. Christie pointed out that, to many Republicans, the Committee doesn’t have any credibility. That’s because they don’t have any real Republicans on the Committee to make any points against the Democratic narrative.​

​

The January 6 committee was “resigned to having a credibility problem because of the membership of the committee and the way that was done,” Christie opened by saying.​

​

“There are lots of Republicans across this country who just say, there’s nobody there to argue the other side. Kinzinger and Cheney don’t argue the other side to the extent that there is [sic] some arguments there,” Christie added before both anchor George Stephanopoulos and Brazile jumped down his throat.​

​

That comment sparked outrage from host George Stephanopoulos and fellow panelist Donna Brazile, both of whom have been Democratic operatives.​

​

...​

​

Stephanopoulos claimed there was “no other side,” and Brazile demanded to know, “What is the other side?” Christie spoke about the ability to grill the witnesses, something they would normally have at a hearing, which is missing here. Instead, he said, accurately, it was a television production. Brazile just kept shouting at Christie and would barely let him get in a word edgewise.​

​

When he finally got the chance to speak, Christie said, “There are lots of people inside the White House who now have convenient memories about things that didn’t have memories about them before.” But, the Trump team/Republicans weren’t given that option because that’s not allowed, to challenge the narrative. You’re not allowed to know that Trump spoke about acting “peacefully and patriotically” at his rally before the riot. You’re not allowed to question why Democrats didn’t conduct this like a normal hearing.​

​

But this is the Democrats’ view in general. Trump is guilty of pushing an “insurrection”–because they say so. He isn’t entitled to a defense. It doesn’t matter what he said, or what evidence might rebut their presumptions. They don’t believe in the rule of law, just the rule of the narrative. That’s why everyone on the Committee — including the Republicans — was already solidly anti-Trump, picked for their bias. That’s why House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) in an unprecedented move, rejected members who were picked by the Republican side who might have questioned the Democrats.​

​

The last person who should be talking about “credibility” is Donna Brazile. Can anyone forget how Brazile divulged debate questions to Clinton camp officials during the Democratic primaries in the 2016 race? Even the left excoriated her​

​

...​

​

But Christie accurately noted it’s because of that basic unfairness about the formation of the Committee, that most of America have turned the Committee off. They know it’s about trying to get Trump, not about the riot or the rule of law.​

​

“t’s very hard for Democrats to be able to make this a cutting issue, especially in the light of huge inflation, gas prices, crime in the streets, open borders, drug overdoses, those things are things that are affecting people’s everyday lives and they don’t see it that way,” Christie reasoned.​

​

That’s the bottom line. Democrats are pushing issues that aren’t the top issues of concern to voters. They thought they would use Jan. 6 to smear Republicans. But people know it’s a biased show; it’s backfiring on them because voters don’t think they care about anything else, including the issues that are most important to Americans.​

Super Good Find wow spot on and I thought Christie was a windbag

And to everything Chris Christie said, the appropriate response is "bullshit".

Especial that "peacefully" horseshit. Trump said to "march peacefully" to the Capital, and to "fight like hell" when they got there. And he told them to "fight" more than 10 times, so don't try that crap on people who watched the actual speech and heard send those people to the Capital to fight for his presidency, even though he lost the election.

Chris Christie has been a Trump ass=kisser since he pulled out of the primaries.

Yes, the Democrats talk about "Taking it to the streets" "This Fight isnt over" and Get in your face,,,,,,,Its ok for the Wall St Banker controlled fake left to do anything because they own the MSM but NO OPPOSITION IS ALLOWED as that would introduce doubt into the MEMES the Corporate controlled Left are spreading via Social media.

Correct, you simply don't reply to the post. But if you're going to reply with something stupid, expect to be challenged. That's what we do here in political forums.

Challenged by what?

Do you understand why Grifty's DoJ threatened to resign en masse?

Do you even know they did so?

This case is simply about stopping Trump from running in 2024. They are scared to death of this man. I'm sure some can't sleep at night thinking about it.

So what they did is put on this dog and pony show to try and blame Trump for the actions other people took. That's impossible. A person can't control the actions of another person outside of threatening them with harm or death. But what else can they do? They have nothing legitimate against Trump to stop him.

Is that all you have, a stupid apples to oranges comparison? Okay, if you want to play that game, Trump was President during the largest employment gain in history. After we got hit with covid, unemployment jumped to nearly 15%.

View attachment 749564

Ultimately, when you take into account the final two years of Trump's one term tenure, he goes down in history as the worst jobs President since Herbert Hoover.

Of course the second half of his term was marred by the Covid lockdown.
Something he had no control over....right?
Well, that's debatable.
We only know what we know, and we have to believe what we know.
The FACT is that within two months of our country having to shut down for Covid everybody was pretty much broke and in need of government stimulus checks.
Businesses were going under left and right because they weren't economically stable enough to withstand even a few months without an income.
All of the workers that Trump likes to say were so "economically well off" didn't even have a few months of savings to get them through.

It ALMOST leads one to believe that all the "prosperity" Trump likes to say he created in his first two years was all just smoke and mirrors huh?
A con job.
Like....it wasn't REALLY there!

Now MAGAt Trumptards like to make excuses for him like "b-b-but he had no control over that. If it hadn't have been for the pandemic we'd all be pissing in solid gold toilets by now under Trump."

Well, we don't kniw that do we?
All we know is what actually happened.

The federal coronavirus response shows a president dead set on avoiding responsibility for the pandemic.

So why did the deficit FALL under Obama, and rise precipitously under Grifty?

Split government may have something to do with it. Did that ever occur to you? Biden spent like a drunken sailor his first 2 years in office. The next 2 years that will be constrained to some extent due to split government. The current issue with the debt limit is a great example. The Republicans said they will up the limit if the Democrats will agree to the 2022 spending levels instead of increasing. They don’t want any part of that because they don’t care. They actually believe they can just raise taxes and fix all the problems. Ignorant people believe this.

And when you take into account Trump’s four years in office, he goes down as the worst president in US history.

Bri,

You cast 2 votes for "worse than Buchanan".


You're an idiot.

Do you suppose you could post an intelligible idea?

You didn't even think about addressing the questions.


And you are certain because you don't know anything.

You sure do your homework.

Really?

Both spending and the deficit have FALLEN.

You have never cast a single vote for a POTUS who did the same in his first 2 years.

How would you know, Bri?

You're dumb enough to have cast 2 votes for "worse than Buchanan".

You are, literally, one of the dumbest mothersquirers alive.

Every year since the late 40s we've spent more than any year prior.

No he doesn't. You're a fucking imbecile.
