FBI: No charges for Clinton
|
She's a massive liar, it may indeed describe the stereotypical politician, but whether it applies to most politicians or not... it's not exactly a likable quality.
It's just irrelevant really because she's a massively better option than Trump and is the only person who really has a chance in beating him. I'd vote her, if I was an American citizen, in a heartbeat. Months back I wouldn't have because I thought Trump had no chance of getting in and I thought Bernie might have got in... the fact Trump might actually become president shows just how fucking imperfect democracy is. Not that I am anti-democracy, far from it, it's the best we've got. It's just clear that there are so many idiots and all these idiots are entitled to vote and so a lot of them vote for an idiot politician. ![[Image: Winston-Churchill-Democracy-Quotes.jpg]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=www.quote-coyote.com%2Falbum%2Fsmall%2FWinston-Churchill-Democracy-Quotes.jpg) ![[Image: Democracy-Government-Churchill-Quotes.jpg]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=www.quote-coyote.com%2Falbum%2Fsmall%2FDemocracy-Government-Churchill-Quotes.jpg)

One positive thing I can think of: at least he lost their vote.  (July 6, 2016 at 12:59 am)Cecelia Wrote: I'm glad that's finally over with. Now Hillary can go on and win the election without this looming over her head. And yes, she will win the election. People may call her 'dishonest', but that describes every politician. I actually like Hillary. I'm not going to be holding my nose when I cast my vote for her. I'll cast my vote happily. She is dishonest (like any stereotypical politician). That word shouldn't be between quotes. Fortunately for her, she is an angel compared to Trump.
Ex-fucking-actly.

So yeah, politics is as sleazy as ever. The next mass shooting needs to happen on Wall Street, or in Congress. To be clear, he spent a half hour on a plane with Loretta Lynch, the Attorney General. She has nothing to do with the investigation. The next mass shooting needs to not happen at all. Luckily, the FBI has a few more agents now that can stop investigating an email scandal.

Her level of negligence and incompetence wouldn't be tolerated in the private sector. She'd be fired from her job. Even more reason not to put her in the White House.

Even more reason not to put her in the White House. The very existence of Donald Trump in the private sector belies this statement. For every ounce of negligence and incompetence she shows, Trump shows 10. Still voting for the less negligent, less incompetent candidate.

I think Snowden deserves a medal and the right to walk freely in this world. In comparison Clinton using the wrong server is nothing. Neither deserve jail. The spies in Washington are recording all of our online chatter without warrants. No true press is allowed in war zones so that the feds are the only ones who control the propaganda. Why the fuck would I care that the Secretary of State opens the door for us to spy on them a little bit easier?

The FBI did not say that Clinton was innocent, they essentially said this: the skanky dishonest brothel-running bitch has been lying about her actions to the public for a year, she's as crooked as scoliosis and as guilty as Pistorius, but it is our view that the chances of a prosecution following an indictment are slim and therefore will not be recommending charges. If you don't think Trump can attack that you're dreaming. No, I understand that Trump can attack this. I meant that it lessens the likelihood of a Trump presidency compared to if she had been indicted. Sure, Trump can use this against Hillary, but there's not quite as much fuel to the fire as if charges had been introduced.
