at Clinton would be forced out of the race? She intentionally mishandled classified information, lied about it, and thumbs her nose to everyone about it and she's in the race. A rant about the media isn't forcing her out. I'll admit that you're in a much better position than I, as one who would be a Clinton lapdog. People talk about Trump as being the fascist (and maybe it's true). But Hillary has a history of making lists of her enemies, skating well over the legal line and targeting those enemies mercilessly. So some of us maybe don't want her at the helm of the NSA machine which knows precisely which of us have expressed our negative sentiments. Let's say I'm already careful with my taxes, but better prepare for my audits, or worse.

Was Hoover's SOS running? Can't remember.
Any word on when she will be holding a press conference? I would think it's very dangerous for our leaders to not be accountable...
Will you feel better about her if she does? Is this the issue that's keeping you from voting for her?
Would it make you feel better if people stop discussing Hillary's actual behavior and what she does, what she has done, and will do as president? That seems to be the problem here. Hillary would be in huge trouble most elections vs a normal candidate but hey surprise surprise her friend Donald is in the race against her.
- I'm not sure this is a great idea.
Many of us are waiting on cuffs because you've indicated they are right around the corner many times.

My timeline for the indictments has been given. It was never as ill defined. I believe the recommendation to indict will come down be the second week of July.
Barack Obama is famous for playing the long game and letting others dominate the news cycle. He has let many opponents hang themselves by their own petards.
Just an innocent record-keeping issue. Nothing to see here, move along. Doo-tee-doo.
Den of thieves and crooks. But hey, a comet may hit the Supreme Court so move along.
Maybe you're right, but my impression has been that he and his team have always made a point of getting out ahead of every single issue and challenging every claim, almost on a daily basis. However I will say that some of these claims and statements by Trump are outright bizarre so maybe that's the point.
A lot of emoting going on, not Hillary's strength, but IMO she should be hammering him on some of his wealth comments, like 'you have to be wealthy to be great'. He said that. Maybe it's not a problem for him because he goes around professing his allegedly massive wealth in the first place.
This is why she should disqualify herself if she had a modicum of decency at all. The paper versus electronic debate, aside, the real issue is mishandling classified information and then lying about it. This is a major reason, in an election where I can't stand the Republican candidate, I can't vote for the Democratic one either.
The fear mongering about trump to get Hillary votes is both laughable and purely pathetic.
I just think when she stands up there and reads off a card, the attacks come off as flat no matter what she's attacking. She just can't sell it. She comes off like a politician. Trump's success comes from the fact he doesn't come off like a politician. He's operating on a different plane.
That's it. That's all they need to do. Just let him keep talking and then create commercials that are nothing but montages of his idiotic statements conflicting each other. Bury him in his own words such that he spends the rest of his campaign explaining/defending/denying all the stupid stuff he says on a daily basis.
Sure, I've never said it isn't smart to protect yourself from self-incrimination. My point is there is a risk of self-incrimination.
You guys are hung up on the substance. I'm talking about style. If substance had any effect on the race so far Trump would have been out after a week.
Precisely. A criminal act occurred, not some innocent record-keeping mix-up/misunderstanding.
I'm not talking about substance either, as his own words have none. He gets flustered pretty easily when called on his BS. The style melts away and he reverts to his natural bully on an acid trip state. If he constantly has to keep explaining himself he'll end up looking bad.
And you seem to be hung up on the results of the Republican primary -- the general is an entirely different ballgame. Trump says tons of stuff, style or no, that is revolting to all but the bitter white guys who turned out in droves for him in the primary.
They are so bad at this. It's kind of embarrassing and frustrating.
I think it's obvious that in some ways the guy is going to temper his act for the general. The more I read the more it seems people are going to doubt the guy all the way up to November 8th. Time to take him seriously.
BTW, a petard is a bomb. The idiom (from Shakespeare) is "hoist with his own petard" (i.e., to be blown up by his own bomb).
Wonder had Stewart stuck around, if he'd have had influence on Donald getting this far?
She gets into George Costanza "T-Bone" territory at this point. She needs to not do this. Even if the team hits on the right name she'll blow the delivery. - Best thing is let the smart Twitter meme guys handle this organically.
The IRS doesn't have anywhere near enough agents to audit all of Hillary's enemies. I think you'll be just fine.
I actually wonder if he even takes his candidacy seriously aside from the vast mostly free publicity he's getting.
