Surprise, surprise.....more evidence the 'Chosen One' was given a pass....
"Fact-checkers ignored, for example, Clinton’s claim that she “beat” President Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election. Clinton appears to be referencing the fact that she received a plurality — although not a majority — of the popular vote, which is irrelevant in determining the winner of the election.
Clinton’s claim, which is misleading at best and a lie at worst, is especially pertinent in light of recent surveys showing that a majority of Democratic voters believe the unfounded conspiracy theory that Trump is only president because Russia tampered with voting tallies to steal the election for him.
Fact-checkers similarly remained silent on Clinton’s claim that voter-suppression — “particularly in Wisconsin,” which she virtually ignored throughout the general election campaign — is to blame for Trump’s victory. As previously noted by TheDC, even liberal news sources have previously rejected that alleged, unproven voter suppression caused her loss.
That claim was just as unsupported by evidence as Trump’s claim that his smaller share of the popular vote was due to widespread voter fraud — a claim that was widely fact-checked in the media.
One of the leading fact-check sites, PolitiFact, hasn’t fact-checked any of Clinton’s claims since before the election, despite her re-emergence as a vocal critic of the president. The last time PolitiFact bothered to fact-check Hillary Clinton was on November 6, 2016.
Another prominent fact-checker, Factcheck.org hasn’t done much better at correcting Clinton’s dishonest statements. Factcheck.org has fact-checked Clinton just once since the election. In that instance, the fact-checker noted Clinton’s false claim that no moderator asked Trump about how he was going to create jobs."
Perhaps the fact-checkers and her All-In media supporters have just said, "Why bother checking", acknowledging that most of what comes out of her mouth, especially on her current 'BLAME Tour', is just bullshit anyway.
