WE CALL IT VOIGHT-KAMPFF FOR SHORT: Ricochet needs to amend their podcast opening; their weekly segments open with an audio montage featuring Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter, and Chris Christie uttering these famous last words of politics:
● “I’m not a crook.”
●“I’ll never tell a lie.”
● “I’m not a bully.”
We can now add one more, courtesy of Hillary Clinton, who when asked to describe herself “in three words” by Face the Nation host John “Destroy the GOP” Dickerson instead chooses five:
“I am a real person,” the “I’m not a witch” of the 2016 election cycle, and as Rick Wilson tweets, “prima facie evidence of a failed Turing Test.”
Or yet another example of our ongoing national Voight-Kampff test on this potentially animatronic presidential candidate.
