The Podesta Emails

Trump is a horrible choice, can't deny that. I can understand weighing what little good you can find from the candidates and think Hilary is the lesser evil, I get that. I weigh everything and think Trump, as horrible as he is, is the better choice, but still admit he is a horrible choice and still can't fathom how in the world he was chosen over the 16 other much more qualified candidates.
This is directed to those who no matter what seem to stand by Hilary's side and make excuses for her or blame the repubs for making mountains out of molehills.
I don't get how anyone can ignore all of the scandals or give the impression they are fabricated.
I'm not as concerned that she used a private server as I am she destroyed evidence AFTER a subpoena was issued to hand it over, and everyone, including the FBI seems okay with that. That's just one example among the dozens listed here and elsewhere. If you're going to vote for her, can you at least admit she is also a terrible candidate, just the lesser of the two evils in your mind?

30 years of mudslinging political theater and nothing has stuck. I'll repeat that: not. one. thing. She has been smeared so repeatedly that there is the appearance of scandal where there is none. The people see through it and are tired of it. Is she Obama perfect? No. But she certainly is more qualified by any and every measure. To consider her the lesser of two evils is insulting. I saw a sandwich analogy somewhere that goes like this:

Voters: Hello Subway sandwich artist, can I have a ham sandwich.
Artist: I'm sorry. We ran out of ham yesterday, how about a delicious turkey sandwich instead?
Voters: I'm so angry you don't have ham, I'm just going to eat this sh*t sandwich for 4 years instead.
(Trump is the sh*t sandwich)

That's an impressive resume. Looks good on paper. She should apply on Wall Street.



Have you been reading the post on this thread or on the Hillary thread? The minute you become an unethical individual you lose your credibility and your trust. If you show up to a job interview with the best resume, get hired, but then demonstrate some shitty behavior you better believe you will be fired. That's kind of how the real world works, but I get it- real world doesn't apply to Hillary Clinton.

I have a feeling that Hillary knows more about how the real world works than all 14 of the Republican Candidates combined.

Serious question. Do the leaks posted on here represent anything? Does the fact that she deleted electronic documents(evidence), that were property of the federal govt., after being subpoenaed mean anything to you?

Do any of the characteristics being posted, and legitimate ones, represent a lick of truth to you?

Or are you that far up her rear that you can't hear or see anything?
Not sure why my fellow so-called progressives need to put a politician before country.
