Twice-failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has accused President Donald Trump of using psychological “projection” of his own behavior onto other people.
In the eyes of many Americans, Democrats have a particular habit of publicly accusing Republicans of engaging in the same actions that they routinely do.
This hypocritical habit is known as “projection.”
However, according to “election denier” Clinton, it is her arch-rival Trump who is guilty of engaging in such projection, the Inquisitr reported.
Rather ironically, Clinton’s accusation of projection against Trump is itself a clear-cut example of such hypocritical duplicity.
In September, the Huffington Post reported that former Secretary of State Clinton, who also previously served as a first lady and U.S. senator, joined MSNBC host — and former White House press secretary — Jen Psaki for an interview that included a discussion of former President Trump.
“You know, the thing about [Trump] — and I’m not the only person who’s noticed this — is he engaged in what psychologists call projection,” Clinton said.
“So, whenever he accuses somebody else of doing something, it’s almost guaranteed he’s doing it himself or he’s already done it,” she added.
“Or whenever he denies thinking about doing something or doing it, it’s almost guaranteed he is thinking about it or he’s already done it.”
What Clinton was specifically referencing there, according to HuffPost, was statements made during an interview Trump had given about a week earlier with Kristen Welker of NBC News about the persistent rumors that he might issue a pardon for himself if re-elected as president in 2024.
“I think it’s very unlikely,” Trump said.
“What, what did I do wrong?
“I didn’t do anything wrong.
