Polls show Americans don't think Hillary is trustworthy. Her campaign manager denies there are such polls. Then her pollster denies that the campaign manager didn't tell the truth about it. Not exactly a formula to build trust, is it?
On today's Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough mocked Robby Mook for having, as our Jeff Meyer reported, denied the undeniable, claiming on yesterday's Face the Nation that "no poll" shows Americans don't trust Hillary. Said Scarborough sarcastically: "well, actually, yeah, they do. You have to respect him for saying they don't." When Scarborough confronted Hillary pollster Beneson with the fact that Mook "didn't tell the truth," Beneson replied: "He did tell the truth. He got interrupted by John [Dickerson], who is a great guy. That's the way these shows go." Have a look at the clip: Dickerson didn't interrupt Mook, who had all the time to tell the truth and chose not to.
