Unilateral Clashing
June 19, 2016 -- The New York Times, June 3, reported that anti-Trump protesters “clashed violently with Mr. Trump’s supporters” in San Jose, California, where Trump was speaking. The Times report cited three instances where Trump backer had been physically assaulted. The paper mentioned no instance of a physical response by the Trump supporters. Seems to be a matter of one-sided clashing to LPR. Meanwhile… in San Diego, June 2, Hillary Clinton declared Donald J. Trump to be, as reported by The New York Tmes, “ temperamentally unfit to be commander in chief.” According to the Times, Ms. Clinton “mixed biting sarcasm and somber assessments of the foreign crises of the Obama years” in “remarks billed as a major foreign policy address… Yet the speech was devoid of new policy prescriptions” and the report noted that Ms. Clinton did not mention the Libya intervention or the terror attack on a U.S. facility in Benghazi, September 11, 2012. LPR would point out that Ms. Clinton spoke in San Diego on September 4, 2014 to the Robbins Geller Rudman and Dowd law firm, receiving $255,00o for the talk. |
(The predecessor to this firm reportedly paid former President Bill Clinton $450,000 for two appearances.) Robbins Geller Rudman and Dowd is representing plaintiffs in the Trump. U. class action lawsuit before Judge Gonzalo Curiel. Would the media ask questions if a law firm paid Donald Trump $225,000 to give a talk and the firm was representing a plaintiff suing the Clintons?
