THE MEDIA IS SO STUPID THEY WERE REPORTING (in real time) on Foreign Interference In The Election by EUROPEAN PROGRESSIVE SOCIALISTS ON BEHALF OF HRC

Gianni Pittella is the Leader of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats Group

[Btw, there’s a ton of 4AM Talking Points in this article]

An Italian Politician Campaigns for Hillary Clinton in Philadelphia

“I have taken the unprecedented step of endorsing and campaigning for Hillary Clinton because the risk of Donald Trump is too high,” Pittella told TIME. “I BELIEVE IT IS IN THE INTEREST OF THE EUROPEAN UNION AND ITALY TO HAVE HILLARY CLINTON IN OFFICE. A Trump victory could be a disaster for the relationship between the U.S.A. and Italy.”

Pittella isn’t the only European to either outright or shadow endorse Clinton. Traditionally, European leaders attend both conventions. But only a handful of European diplomats announced they would attend Trump’s Republican National Convention in Cleveland last week, most notably UKIP leader Nigel Farage, the man behind the “Brexit,” and far-right Dutch leader Geert Wilders. Pittella said dozens of European diplomats from across Europe’s political spectrum showed up in Philadelphia this week.

Across the Atlantic, French President Francois Holland openly endorsed Clinton at the end of June. German Chancellor Angela Merkel has praised Clinton’s “deep political experience, her commitment to women’s rights, to family and health care.” European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, who belongs to the conservative Christian Social People’s Party, last week not-so-subtly said he’s supporting “a female candidate” for president of the United States. And a March YouGov poll of Europeans found that Clinton would win the European vote overwhelmingly with 46 percent to Trump’s 6 percent.

“This campaign is special,” Pittella said. “This campaign is not between Democrat or Republican. It’s between democracy and no democracy in the U.S. It’s between having a relationship between the U.S. and the E.U. and the U.S. and other countries, or not. AND ITALIAN CITIZENS, TOGETHER WITH THE WORLD, HAVE THE DUTY NOT ONLY TO INTERVENE, BUT TO ACT, TO SUPPORT HILLARY’S CAMPAIGN.”
