Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney on Sunday said he finds allegations of sexual misconduct that multiple women have made against Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore “credible,” but is not sure “who to believe.”
“Would you believe that the women who’ve come out against Roy Moore are credible?” Andrea Mitchell asked Mulvaney on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”
“I believe they’re credible. I don’t know who to believe,” Mulvaney replied.
Pressed on that apparent contradiction, he claimed Mitchell has “arrived at a certain conclusion because of a certain political persuasion.”
“I run the Office of Management and Budget in Washington, D.C. You work for NBC News in Washington, D.C.,” he said. “My guess is we’ve not spent that much time looking at the specifics of these allegations.”
“I have no political ax to grind here other than to ask you whether you believe they are credible,” Mitchell replied.
“I believe that the folks who vote in the Alabama election are going to ultimately decide that,” Mulvaney said, returning to the White House line. “And that’s the right folks to make those decisions.”
what a weasel
Remember folks, when you elect a disturbing ,psychotic, disingenuous maniac as president…this is the flotsam and jetsam that goes along with that choice…his family, dysfunctional criminal cabinet,the bootlickers in Congress…they are all part of this miserable spectacle that disgraces America every single day.
Mulvaney: “I think the women are credible but I have to put party before country”
The entire Drumpf administration is a basket of deplorable miscreants and its base loves every worthless one of them. They live to destroy and dissemble. Nothing Drumpf could ever do would lose his base of idiots. We must get out the vote in '18 and wipe the GOP bastards off the map. Pointing out how horrible Drumpf is will do nothing but reinforce his cretin base to be bigger a-holes. Mueller is still toiling away, too; that will probably start really screwing the GOP campaigns across the country in the upcoming summer/fall. Go, Bob, go!!
