At best, that is the nice way to describe treason.

I’m sorry but I think you fail to understand how this plays out in the real world, and you are justifying elected officials lying to the public.

Your devotion to the “team” is requiring you to perform mental gymnastics which demand that you ignore the obvious and then come up with an idealistic situation that justifies being lied to.

That is crazy scary

You mean the Hillary Clinton who said that it was okay to have different public versus private opinions on things, as an elected official, who got PAID to give speeches to wall Street, who used her influence to get the apparatchiks of the party to tip the scales in 2016 to ensure that SHE would be the nominee instead of an anti neo liberal who could have put up an amazing contrast to djt instead of her neoliberal centrism? The one who insisted that SHE needed to be president, and who very much helped us to get into the situation we find ourselves in today? Oh, cool. I am very much interested in what she has to say, because of course she holds the interests of the country above her own
