5 ways that Comey contradicted Hillary Clinton's email claims - POLITICO
An interesting read, seems even those on the left realise she is crooked.

"According to the OIG report: “OIG identified many examples of staff using personal email accounts to conduct official business; however, OIG could only identify three cases where officials used non-Departmental systems on an exclusive basis for day-to-day operations. These include former Secretaries Powell and Clinton, as well as Jonathan Scott Gration, a former Ambassador to Kenya.”"

"To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences. To the contrary, those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions. But that is not what we are deciding now."

Re: 2016 Election
It really irks me that Trump is trotting out his 'poor General Petraeus got a bad deal..' schtik in his whining about Clintons situation. Clearly he thinks it is just fine to hand over highly classified documents...top secret included..to the woman you are committing adultery with. She was not a spy...but that is a tactic used by spies since spying began. He got off very easy...since prison time would have been the norm.

He has some misguided hope thavBernies supporters will move ove to him in large numbers so he is sucking up to them. No doubt some are dumb enough to...but not many I suspect.

The Sanders supporters aren't dumb but they are grieving. Bernie's ultimate message will be to repudiate Trump soundly.

The only supporters of his I worry about are rhe milenials that never voted before....they might tend to vote Trump just to stick it to Clinton...or just sit it out. I suppose we will see in November.

On another note. Does anyone think the allegations of Trump raping a 13 year old have any legs?

Re: 2016 Election
That particular allegation sounds a bit thin. However, it may encourage other women he's abused to come forward. I'm assuming he has a pattern of threats and/or payoffs that have kept people from making complaints.

Re: 2016 Election
But go right ahead and call them dumb or complete idiots because they have a different viewpoint to you and would like the person they vote for to actually represent their views. I'm sure that will persuade them to get behind Hillary, everyone loves to be insulted.
Everyone wonders why Democrats don't have any spine, perhaps if they weren't constantly told to get in line, rather than standing up for what they believe in, they might.
