World Champion Poker Player: Clinton Secretly Signaled Moderator during Debate
ED NOTE: Audio would have helped to determine what followed after the alleged hand signals. There is also some speculation that Clinton got the Moderator Questions weeks before the Debate HERE & HERE. That Clinton has been fed questions before Interviews is beyond question: HERE
A video recently uploaded to Youtube depicts the former secretary of state scratching her face several times during the 90-minute debate – signals to Holt, the video’s editor claims, which “meant Clinton wanted to get a ‘zinger’ in and to go to her without changing the subject.”
“Hillary Clinton used this gesture to signal Holt on six different occasions,” the video asserts.
“The first signal to Holt comes when Hillary wants to get her ‘taxes zinger’ in after Trump talks about the country being in debt.”
An earlier version of the video was taken down from Youtubeciting a copyright claim by [Merlin] SC Distribution.
Reporters at TruePundit.com claim there were no such signals used by Clinton in previous debate performances.
“True Pundit cross referenced Clinton’s speeches, campaign appearances and her 2008 debate performances against President Obama,” the website reports. “According to that analysis, Clinton never previously used these hand motions to supposedly scratch her face. In fact, she rarely touches her face at all.”
Also investigating the video’s claims, author Mike Cernovich reached out to a professional poker player for assistance analyzing the potential hand signals.
Curious. Do the poker pros like @themouthmatusow see this as a “signal” to moderator Lestor Holt. https://t.co/3uQbpbhSQe

Analysis following the debate showed Holt came down harder on Trump, interrupting him 41 times during the event compared to Hillary’s seven interruptions.
