The DOJ interferes just 4 days before the election, and it affects Clinton's chances of winning.
No, I'm not talking about email investigations.
In 1992, the DOJ interfered just 4 days before the election, helping Bill Clinton fight off George Bush's late surge, and go on to win the election.
An indictment of former Secretary of Defence Caspar Weinberger in connection to the Iran contra scandal just 4 days before the 1992 election was used by the democrats to link Bush to the controversial arms-for-hostages deal.
To add insult to injury, the indictment was thrown out by a judge after the election.
What we are seeing with the FBI is not unprecedented.
Just a little history for you voters to keep things in perspective.
Here's some more history: The DOJ policy of suspending overt criminal investigative activity within a period of time preceding an election was not even a written policy until the first term of the Obama administration. Eric Holder issued a memo that made it written Department policy about four years ago (or so). Prior to that, it was just something that experienced agents and prosecutors were cautious not to do.
Dems can't just drop in and move the goal posts, when the goal posts you said were against policy/practice is proven to be wrong. This is the overarching Dem meme since the news broke. Against policy, Against practice. Unprecedented.They shouted.
Only to be proven totally wrong, totally partisan, totally disingenuous. Again.

An even greater irony is that Hillary worked on the House Judiciary Committee that tried to impeach Nixon for lying about deleting audio tape recordings. (recordings which contained no classified information)
It was OK then because it was against a republican. It's no longer OK because it's against the woman who cheered it back in 1992.
The hypocrisy of the Clintonistas is delicious.
As it is equally for those who thought that wrong but cheer it now when it happens to HC .
Just as much hypocrisy going the other direction. Just as much a lack of moral principles for those who cheer for it now with HC .
And oh, to stave off the standard Trumpet response , I am not voting for HC, and did not vote for BC . That seems to be the main defense tactic of the Trumpets .

Ellie, baby, chill out, coming in second it's that bad, really..
