That's it. I do not understand why Trump ignorance and a scandal comes and goes in a day while Clinton scandal hangs on for months and months. The Clinton Foundation is a real charity with significant Clinton funding. It does not appear to support the Clinton's personally. The Clinton's do not claim contributions by the foundation as their own personal charity.
The Trump Foundation has contributed to political causes and had to pay the fines for that. Trump hasn't contributed to it in years. Yet he claims Trump Foundation contributions as his own regularly.
Donators to the Clinton Foundation who would have had access to The Secretary of State ordinarily got access as did those who did not donate. Florida Attorney General Bondi received an illegal disgused $25,000 political contribution three days before she terminated investigation of Trump U. The situations are not even in the same league. Yet I'm still reading more about Clinton Foundation.
The reason why Trump gets it so easy is because the media don't want to kill the race too early. If all that were out on national media his campaign would be dead in the water.
There are two reasons for this, a) the media is right-wing. Most outlets are owned by rich old white men, who have a vested interest in keeping the republitards in power (they're less likely to look for the rich man to pay his taxes) and b) (a point also dictated by the rich old white men owners) media today don't do investigative journalism as it costs money. Far cheaper and easier to keep Donald alive in the election by going easy on him, as the election will generate news without networks having to spend money, rather than looking at something important but costly like, say, what is it in US police culture that makes it so easy for cops to kill unarmed black and less often white men, and why is the justice system so skewed that these murderers in uniform get off scott free.
I reckon most of the media will actually start turning on Trump in a big way, i.e. "revealing" all his illegalities and bankruptcies, some time in late September, early October, because most media owners would rather Clinton in the White House than Trump. They'd rather have a 30% chance of paying more taxes over a 90% chance of economic and military meltdown. If the republitard were half way competent the scandals would be permanently buried, like what they did with Shrub's gross dereliction of duty during his time in the Texas air national guard when he was hiding scared from the big bad Vietcong.
