The swamp got swampier.

This is why he started up with "fake news!"

Frightens some, but entertains others.

That's not what I asked.

" Whatever happened to "Lock Her Up!" "

Leverage. If the democrats don't stop the bull crap, it will be back.

I hope so!

But I seriously doubt there's anyone in the GOP with the guts to back up their decades of BS.

Talk is cheap.

You seem to have difficulty understanding what was actually said. And instead only hear what you want to hear. Then, when corrected, you simply come back with some childish response.

This is certain:

One of us (I won't say which) is having a real hard time dealing with tRump's big, bold talk.

The other is enjoying the schadenfreude.

For those condoning the "lock her up" course of action you realize she first has to be charged with a crime then go through the legal system of a trial, from the allegations i'm seeing it would be a very flimsy case against her and she would end up being found not guilty of all charges making those bringing the charges look rather petty and vindictive the whole thing would be basically a waste of the courts time and tax payers $$$..

Right.

That's why I say she serves the Republican Party best if she is left out there to defend herself endlessly.
So I expect that is where she will stay - forever surrounded by a cloud of accusations.
Forever.

Lock her up .. was an expression used to indicate that many do believe she committed crimes but while we know/knew that she probably could be indicted and convicted - and even, if all things in life were fair and equal, could be sentenced to jail for those crimes - we also knew that that would be very unlikely to happen.


It was NOT a campaign promise or requirement for Trump to actually DO that or even try to do that. We knew before the election that he would not pursue that - he told us so - so failing to do it was obviously not a factor in his election either.


Life moves on. Some of us know that. It amazes me that liberals all too often don't seem to unless of course it is to their advantage. From my vantage point, that indicates weakness and nothing better to do with their lives and mouths. But, hey .. what do I know .. I am on the receiving end of their ire day after day .. and they are getting their jollies off making it stay that way. I guess I am doing a public service keeping them happy.
Your "vantage point" provides the very worst view of things available in the world today. And isn't this something, that people like you can continue to rant on about all these unspecified "crimes" you claim she has committed, but yet never specifically name a single one of them. Is this your version of the American Way? Don't you have any ability to look at yourselves and see the falseness of it? This is the way of third-world dictators, to hold people without charges or trials, but to treat them as though they were criminals, just because they didn't favor your brand of totalitarian rule.

She hasn't been charged, because she committed no crimes. If those who temporarily hold power tried to bring charges, as long as some vestiges of our democracy remain, they would humiliate themselves in their failure. Don't think for a minute that the other 99% of the world's population doesn't see you for what you are and that you won't be held to account for it. Elections do have consequences and yours will come later.
