Vince Foster committed suicide, he wasn’t murdered by anyone. Benghazi was a tragedy and the result of terrible oversight, but it was hardly a crime. And the whole email thing? Yay! They finally found some “top secret” information in some emails, although the reality is, it wasn’t “top secret” when she was Secretary of State; it became so later. So nothing there, either.

Like I said, hundreds of investigations and thousands of investigators have squandered at least $1 billion over the past three decades and they have found two things; the infamous blow job and “Filegate,” in which someone on Hillary’s staff had files he shouldn’t have had. Other than that, the most-vetted couple in US history is clean as a whistle.

Trump only really appeals to white males in large margins. No one else and that's surely not enough to win the general. White women, blacks, Latinos, and Asians are all going to flock to Clinton in the general which will set up a large win.

If you look at how Obama won 2012, look at the demographics, than look at who Trump appeals, it's obvious why the polls at the moment are showing a landslide loss for him. Obama had a white male problem and still won in comfortable margins and Mitt will have likely gotten more of the Hispanic/Latino, white women, Asian vote than Trump will get.

Trump supporters are setting themselves up for a very disappointing November.






Don't be so sure.
