Trump Asks Russians to Help With Getting More Emails
“This has to be the first time that a major presidential candidate has actively encouraged a foreign power to conduct espionage against his political opponent,” wrote Clinton campaign policy director Jake Sullivan. “This has gone from being a matter of curiosity and a matter of politics to being a matter of national security.”
To be fair, Clinton receives millions in donations from Saudi Arabia and Qatar. When people give you money they expect something in return.
Also, I think there will be many more leaks in the coming months about Clinton and the DNC. Clinton is going to get crushed in the debates. Feel the pantsuit!
To be fair, encouraging behavior like this with an entity that is not an ally is unprecedented, foolish and naive. This is no longer about red or blue, republican or democrat. Hell, it is not even about who has good ideas.
I see your point but I think people are overreacting. I'd much rather know why Hillary hasn't held a press conference in 235 days.
Edit. wording
How would you feel if Clinton asked the North Koreans to hack into Trump's financial records and tax returns? It is not right either way. Presidential candidates should not ask foreign countries - much less adversaries - to commit espionage on their behalf to win a political campaign. I understand the hatred of Clinton, and the frustration of Trump supporters, but this is beyond the pale. Change for the sake of change is dangerous. Regardless, I have resigned myself to the fact that Trump will win the election.
Perhaps if she didn't disregard policies and laws regarding the security of sensitive and classified documents, the Russians wouldn't have any documents to put on the table, hmm?
But that's not important. The FBI said prosecution wasn't necessary!
Just consider this a form of a civil lawsuit :)... civil pantsuit?
Wait... so the Clinton Campaign Policy Director just admitted that Hillary Clinton's leaked emails ARE a matter of national security? Yet they're somehow the victims ?
LOL.
Say what you will about Trump as a candidate, but you have to admit this is like watching someone playing 3D chess against someone playing checkers.
This isn't about hating either Trump or Clinton. And, it's not a game.
awesome!
He gonna build the wall on the southern front, not the east.
TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT!
Donald Trump is a different breed of cat. He is friends with Vladimir Putin as he met him in the Green Room at CBS while waiting to be taped for 60 Minutes.
Gary Busey is a different breed of cat too, but that does not make him a good candidate for the presidency.
I'm sure everyone at a high level in the current administration has met Putin as well, but I cannot fathom any of them asking him for shit on the republicans. Idiocracy, it is.
Wait.. what?
That would presuppose that Putin actually respected anyone in the current administration (which I strongly doubt).
At least my bitcoin and ether will go up in value. :)
