    Innocent people don't behave the way Trump has been behaving.

    He isn't behaving any differently than he ever has. He is just a douchebag, a typical New York piece of white trash.

    That's funny... I seem to recall Hillary Clinton willingly cooperating with the FBI and answering questions under oath before Congress... once for 13 hours straight.

    She's the most investigated person in the history of this country.... and what do you have to show for it? NOTHING except a giant waste of taxpayer dollars.

    And those fools who "liked" your post? Dishonest fools.

    Maybe you are right but if so I would say that it is a political miscalculation. No reasonable person ever believed that Obama was born in Kenya; it was more of a punch line that consumed the late night talk shows and the opinion shows of conservative media. By showing his long-form birth certificate you are right that he used it as a political baseball bat on his opponents but Trump's situation is considerably different. Trump has been accused of colluding with Russia and there is, at the very least, enough smoke for any reasonable person to take this investigation seriously. This morning Trump's approval numbers hit another all-time low at 33% with his disapprovals at 58%. If nothing else, this should be reason enough for Trump to consider an alternate plan for dealing with the investigation. Never, at any time, during the Birth Movement did Obama's approval numbers take a hit because of it nor was there a Special Council, FBI and four Congressional investigations into Obama's birth certificate. Why not just cooperate with the investigation and get it over with?

    Oh yes cooperation. That's what you call it. She hid server, emails documents from investigators. Transferred government emails and documents to a private server. There is more willful deflection and tap dancing in her and Bill's little fingers than Trump's body. He's an ignorant idiot who has no morals or scruples but he is so far out of his league it's laughable.
    My comment wasn't to defend DT as he's indefensible. It was to point out the rank hypocrisy of the democrats and other Clintons apologists. You on the other hand are right in league with taint's blind love of Miles as clueless as you are about the Clintons and Obama. Matter of fact your new tag is taint Jr.

    But we have had investigation after investigation into Clinton's alleged crimes but, at least thus far, have turned up nothing. I do not like Clinton and I am glad that she is finally off the stage but this idea that every response to someone criticizing Trump is fair game for offering up another Clinton investigation is ridiculous. If there is new reason for an investigation into her then so be it, but right now it looks like the Trump and Republican strategy for defending Trump is to skewer Clinton and that makes absolutely no sense. I have no doubt that if Clinton had won this election we'd be enmeshed in Clinton investigations but Clinton did not win, Trump did. Trump is the President of the United States and he is accountable for his own behavior, not Clinton's.

    I have admired your, and others here, stance on the Russia investigation and realizing that it is bigger than partisan politics and critical to maintaining the stability of our democracy so I am certainly not blasting you. That said, it has become common for all serious questions about the Trump investigation to be trivialized by immediately pointing the finger at Clinton or Obama.

    That's not really true...

    The differences between the way the media plays the trump investigations and the way they portrayed the Clinton investigations is night and day.

    I believe if trump colluded with the russians to place dirt on clinton, that would be illegal. however from my view point it looks like Trump's team was probably made aware of the hacked emails, but did not "collude". Collude in my view would mean that his team actually took some measurable part in the hacking or distributioin. Certainly his team used dirty politics but i think that is as far it went. It is more of a sign of his NY roots, where anything is fair.
    I believe there is financial dirt on Trump, i would say the same is true for any supper wealthy person. He knows this and doesn't want it public even if it has nothing to do with "Russia".

    What pisses me off about the Clinton investigations is it was plain enough to see their pattern of dirt, and there really never was a real desire to get to the bottom and find the truth. Most likely because many members of congress, Republican and Democrat, would be ensnared also.

    I'm no fan of the shit bird we have in the white house, most of what he gets from the media is brought on by himself, but the media is far from innocent here. And to claim that all republicans are dismissing everything he does is simply not true.
