    I think now that she is convicted and knows she will spend life in prison, there's a better chance of her spilling the beans now. It's her only way to not rotting in a jail cell her whole life. 
    That is a death sentence...
    Yeah maybe. She doesn't have a lot of good options that is for sure!

    Yep. She’s a criminal and a sex offender, she’s not going to name names for the greater good of society and tge victims. She’ll only do it as part of some deal to reduce her sentence.

    Everyone should hope the truth comes out.  But it's funny on Facebook, etc. seeing the guarded optimism that it's "the other side."  If it's Clinton, a guy for whom I voted twice, then fuck him. He had his good and bad points as president (mostly good, IMHO) but being a good president, athlete, writer, beer-brewer, football coach, preacher, etc. does not make a you a good person. I hope any liberal, conservative, moderate, apolitical-type, etc. that committed/facilitated any sexual crimes gets what's coming to them.

    That all said, it's just amazing how huge sexual assault rings and long-lasting sexual-assaulters are able to just go on and on. The ability for large groups of people to turn their collective heads is frightening.

    I don't wish them well...
    people need to stop with this "well well well, look at the democrat/republican". nearly every single instance is anecdotal and has zero to do with the person's political leanings. 
    I had this thought recently...  that the Clinton's in an odd way are somewhat responsible for Trump.  Or more accurately... in the divisive culture war fiercely being fought on the internet between the left and the right, dems and the reps, blues and reds..  etc. the sheer ignorance of both sides' failures are what keep this shit going. 

    I regrettably watched Trump's first impeachment closely and honestly got stuck in the left's echo chamber. But then I saw something kind of interesting about Clinton's impeachment in the process.  Some of those senators and congressmen/women that were around during both impeachments sang remarkably similar tunes... none of which were in the interest of the public or for the truth... but in the interests of partisanship.  Between the two chiefs.. Clinton and Trump... it should be obvious to all that BOTH should have been impeached. It takes leadership and courage to say that you're own team is failing.  I'm not old enough to remember the fine details about the Clinton impeachment and the dems at that time.... but presently.... in the culture war today we need more Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney types. Call out your own leader. Call out your own party... in the interests of truth and the people.

    men perpretrated this. one was prosecuted and may or may not have offed himself. a woman was convicted for enabling.

    none of the men who actually did the abusing have even been arrested or indicted. until that happens there is not going to be any justice. and if democrats are guilty of it, i do not care. same as republicans. if crimes were committed, let them all go to federal prison for life.

    Trump’s success due to Clinton was largely due to the bonkers irrational demonization from republicans that started when Bill was president. They kept it going through Bush and Obama, and despite Hillary getting decent approval ratings as SOS and Senator, once she was running for prez, all they had to do was make baseless claims about her being corrupt. Republican voters were so far gone at that point that somehow Trump had the moral and ethical high ground.

    don't forget that hillary actually won the popular vote by over 3 million votes. trump won in just a few key states to win the electoral college.

    I gotta tell ya, I honestly don't know why people keep bringing this up. The popular vote has never mattered. I actually agree with Trump that if it did, he still would have won. It wildly changes your campaign strategy, or it should if you have a good campaign team. And that's why she lost. 
    Darwinspeed, all.

    And like Trump said, Russia helped him win. (Ah the good old days of 2016!)

    I’ve always thought the same. It reminds me of a football team who complains about the rules after they lose a game. But if the rules were different, they’d have a different strategy. If they go for it on 4th down, how often they throw or run the ball, etc are all influenced by the rules in place. Change when the clock stops or what happens after a missed field goal and it’s a completely different game.

    She lost because people don't like her.  The democratic war machine propped her on a pedestal and crowned her queen but they didn't read the room.

They kept it going through Bush and Obama, and despite Hillary getting decent approval ratings as SOS and Senator, once she was running for prez, all they had to do was make baseless claims about her being corrupt. Republican voters were so far gone at that point that somehow Trump had the moral and ethical high ground. 
    don't forget that hillary actually won the popular vote by over 3 million votes. trump won in just a few key states to win the electoral college.
    I gotta tell ya, I honestly don't know why people keep bringing this up. The popular vote has never mattered. I actually agree with Trump that if it did, he still would have won. It wildly changes your campaign strategy, or it should if you have a good campaign team. And that's why she lost. 
    She lost because people don't like her.  The democratic war machine propped her on a pedestal and crowned her queen but they didn't read the room. 
    strange, I thought she was chosen by the people who voted in the primaries. interesting.....in all seriousness, I did read some time ago that her campaign team (or she) made some massive gaffes by completely ignoring campaigning in certain places she really should have, and it cost her big.

    Everyone should hope the truth comes out.  But it's funny on Facebook, etc. seeing the guarded optimism that it's "the other side."  If it's Clinton, a guy for whom I voted twice, then fuck him. He had his good and bad points as president (mostly good, IMHO) but being a good president, athlete, writer, beer-brewer, football coach, preacher, etc. does not make a you a good person. I hope any liberal, conservative, moderate, apolitical-type, etc. that committed/facilitated any sexual crimes gets what's coming to them.

    That all said, it's just amazing how huge sexual assault rings and long-lasting sexual-assaulters are able to just go on and on. The ability for large groups of people to turn their collective heads is frightening.

    I don't wish them well...
    people need to stop with this "well well well, look at the democrat/republican". nearly every single instance is anecdotal and has zero to do with the person's political leanings. 
    I had this thought recently...  that the Clinton's in an odd way are somewhat responsible for Trump.  Or more accurately... in the divisive culture war fiercely being fought on the internet between the left and the right, dems and the reps, blues and reds..  etc. the sheer ignorance of both sides' failures are what keep this shit going. 

    I regrettably watched Trump's first impeachment closely and honestly got stuck in the left's echo chamber. But then I saw something kind of interesting about Clinton's impeachment in the process.  Some of those senators and congressmen/women that were around during both impeachments sang remarkably similar tunes... none of which were in the interest of the public or for the truth... but in the interests of partisanship.  Between the two chiefs.. Clinton and Trump... it should be obvious to all that BOTH should have been impeached. It takes leadership and courage to say that you're own team is failing.  I'm not old enough to remember the fine details about the Clinton impeachment and the dems at that time.... but presently.... in the culture war today we need more Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney types. Call out your own leader. Call out your own party... in the interests of truth and the people.

    And sadly women politicians need to be perceived as more likable than their male counterparts. 
    if only she had been caught on a hot mic bragging about grabbing men by the gonads at will, she'd have won.

It takes leadership and courage to say that you're own team is failing.  I'm not old enough to remember the fine details about the Clinton impeachment and the dems at that time.... but presently.... in the culture war today we need more Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney types. Call out your own leader. Call out your own party... in the interests of truth and the people. 

    Whatever becomes of this Epstein/Maxwell thing... truth and consequence for all I say!  
    Trump’s success due to Clinton was largely due to the bonkers irrational demonization from republicans that started when Bill was president. They kept it going through Bush and Obama, and despite Hillary getting decent approval ratings as SOS and Senator, once she was running for prez, all they had to do was make baseless claims about her being corrupt. Republican voters were so far gone at that point that somehow Trump had the moral and ethical high ground. 
    don't forget that hillary actually won the popular vote by over 3 million votes. trump won in just a few key states to win the electoral college.
    I gotta tell ya, I honestly don't know why people keep bringing this up. The popular vote has never mattered. I actually agree with Trump that if it did, he still would have won. It wildly changes your campaign strategy, or it should if you have a good campaign team. And that's why she lost. 
    She lost because people don't like her.  The democratic war machine propped her on a pedestal and crowned her queen but they didn't read the room. 
    strange, I thought she was chosen by the people who voted in the primaries. interesting.....in all seriousness, I did read some time ago that her campaign team (or she) made some massive gaffes by completely ignoring campaigning in certain places she really should have, and it cost her big. 
    There was proof that the democratic party played favorite to her over Bernie.  They wanted to make sure that she got the billing and not Sanders.

    with her out of it , how did that work out for bernie in 2020?
    Bernie lost steam after that one.  Why people chose Biden I'll never understand either...
    Because he was definitely one to fuck everything up. Even worse than POOTWH. Let's go Brandon! Who did you choose?
    I liked Bernie the first time around, not so much the 2nd...  I wanted Andrew Yang.

    Everyone should hope the truth comes out.  But it's funny on Facebook, etc. seeing the guarded optimism that it's "the other side."  If it's Clinton, a guy for whom I voted twice, then fuck him. He had his good and bad points as president (mostly good, IMHO) but being a good president, athlete, writer, beer-brewer, football coach, preacher, etc. does not make a you a good person. I hope any liberal, conservative, moderate, apolitical-type, etc. that committed/facilitated any sexual crimes gets what's coming to them.

    That all said, it's just amazing how huge sexual assault rings and long-lasting sexual-assaulters are able to just go on and on. The ability for large groups of people to turn their collective heads is frightening.

    I don't wish them well...
    people need to stop with this "well well well, look at the democrat/republican". nearly every single instance is anecdotal and has zero to do with the person's political leanings. 
    I had this thought recently...  that the Clinton's in an odd way are somewhat responsible for Trump.  Or more accurately... in the divisive culture war fiercely being fought on the internet between the left and the right, dems and the reps, blues and reds..  etc. the sheer ignorance of both sides' failures are what keep this shit going. 

    I regrettably watched Trump's first impeachment closely and honestly got stuck in the left's echo chamber.

    I liked him, too. Qualified? Maybe not, but qualified is not really a qualification any more. Certainly would have been more fit than Trump. I think there's a chance he'd have been going into it intent on being transparent and not corrupt (of course a lot of people thought that's what they were voting for in Trump, so who knows...)

    I'm not as much of a fan of him and his new party (whatever it's called). I think he's bought into his own hype a bit and is trying to save something he can't save.

    Everyone should hope the truth comes out.  But it's funny on Facebook, etc. seeing the guarded optimism that it's "the other side."  If it's Clinton, a guy for whom I voted twice, then fuck him. He had his good and bad points as president (mostly good, IMHO) but being a good president, athlete, writer, beer-brewer, football coach, preacher, etc. does not make a you a good person. I hope any liberal, conservative, moderate, apolitical-type, etc. that committed/facilitated any sexual crimes gets what's coming to them.

    That all said, it's just amazing how huge sexual assault rings and long-lasting sexual-assaulters are able to just go on and on. The ability for large groups of people to turn their collective heads is frightening.

    I don't wish them well...
    people need to stop with this "well well well, look at the democrat/republican". nearly every single instance is anecdotal and has zero to do with the person's political leanings. 
    I had this thought recently...  that the Clinton's in an odd way are somewhat responsible for Trump.  Or more accurately... in the divisive culture war fiercely being fought on the internet between the left and the right, dems and the reps, blues and reds..  etc. the sheer ignorance of both sides' failures are what keep this shit going. 

    I regrettably watched Trump's first impeachment closely and honestly got stuck in the left's echo chamber. But then I saw something kind of interesting about Clinton's impeachment in the process.  Some of those senators and congressmen/women that were around during both impeachments sang remarkably similar tunes... none of which were in the interest of the public or for the truth... but in the interests of partisanship.  Between the two chiefs.. Clinton and Trump... it should be obvious to all that BOTH should have been impeached. It takes leadership and courage to say that you're own team is failing.  I'm not old enough to remember the fine details about the Clinton impeachment and the dems at that time.... but presently.... in the culture war today we need more Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney types. Call out your own leader. Call out your own party... in the interests of truth and the people. 

    Whatever becomes of this Epstein/Maxwell thing... truth and consequence for all I say!  
    Trump’s success due to Clinton was largely due to the bonkers irrational demonization from republicans that started when Bill was president. They kept it going through Bush and Obama, and despite Hillary getting decent approval ratings as SOS and Senator, once she was running for prez, all they had to do was make baseless claims about her being corrupt. Republican voters were so far gone at that point that somehow Trump had the moral and ethical high ground. 
    don't forget that hillary actually won the popular vote by over 3 million votes. trump won in just a few key states to win the electoral college.
    I gotta tell ya, I honestly don't know why people keep bringing this up. The popular vote has never mattered. I actually agree with Trump that if it did, he still would have won. It wildly changes your campaign strategy, or it should if you have a good campaign team. And that's why she lost. 
    She lost because people don't like her.  The democratic war machine propped her on a pedestal and crowned her queen but they didn't read the room. 
    Main reason she lost is Jim Comey.
