He’s falling for the right wing’s deflection campaign to draw attention away from the real criminal.

Worse, most of these Clinton attacks are based on myths.
That’s the stupidest arguement possible for the GOP supporters.

If you are actually republican, you should be shitting bricks right now. You might be getting by on uneducated older poor white men votes right now, but there’s a whole cadre of youth about to be voting age in the next election. And your base is literally dying off rapidly out of self-selected irrationalism.

The GOP is going to feel this for generations if it’s not careful.

How stupid can you be?

Can affirm that up here and in the UK that the American credibility and moral authority is less than a joke.

Trump supporters have no idea what you've done to yourselves.
 
One reason Hillary Clinton lost is she failed to effectively communicate her innocence. Trump beat the "crooked Hillary Clinton" drum early And often. For her part she did not explain well or fully address the allegations agenst her.
Further when the access Hollywood tape surfaced Clinton did not use it to her advantage. She rarely mention it. If I were her I would have spoken with rage and anger! But no. When you are in your fallout shelter just think of who is in white house.

The reason she list is that FBI Director Comey opened his mouth with a letter to Congress about newly discovered emails days on former Rep. Weiner's laptop before the election, which stopped Clinton's momentum (see the polls at the time). While he had a followup that it wasn't probative, it was too late.

Had that not happened, the election would very likely have turned out differently.

I agree Clinton didn't defend herself well against the stupid email charges. Her handlers should have taken that nonsense more seriously.

But remember that Trump won the electoral college by narrow margins in three states. He pretends it was otherwise, but he has a poor view of reality. Clinton won the popular vote by a margin about a point lower than the consensus polling for the election.
 
Special counsel obtains thousands of Trump transition emails
news now The Associated Press — By STEPHEN BRAUN and CHAD DAY - Associated Press
FILE Dec. 17, 2016


WASHINGTON (AP) — Special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian contacts with President Donald Trump's campaign has gained access to thousands of emails sent and received by Trump officials before the start of his administration, according to several people familiar with Trump's transition organization.

But the investigators did not directly request the records from Trump's still-existing transition group, Trump for America, and instead obtained them from the General Services Administration, a separate federal agency that stored the material, according to those familiar with the Trump transition organization.

The tens of thousands of emails in question pertain to 13 senior Trump transition officials. Many of the emails that Mueller's investigators have now include national security discussions about possible Trump international aims as well as candid assessments of candidates for top government posts, said those familiar with the transition. They spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because of the records' sensitivity.

On Saturday, Kory Langhofer, general counsel for the transition group, sent a letter to two congressional committees arguing that the GSA had improperly provided the transition records to Mueller's investigators. In the letter to the Republican chairmen of the House Oversight and the Senate Homeland Security committees, Langhofer contends that the disclosure by GSA was "unauthorized," and it considers the documents private and privileged and not government property.

Langhofer also said that a GSA official appointed by Trump in May had assured the transition in June that any request for records from Mueller's office would be referred to the transition's attorneys. According to Langhofer, the assurance was made by then-GSA General Counsel Richard Beckler, who was hospitalized in August and has since died. A copy of the letter was viewed by the AP.

But late Saturday, another GSA official present for the conversation told Buzzfeed News that there was nothing improper about the disclosure of the emails to Mueller's team. The GSA has provided office space and other aid to presidential transitions in recent years and typically houses electronic transition records in its computer system.

GSA Deputy Counsel Lenny Loewentritt told Buzzfeed that Beckler didn't make a commitment to the transition team that requests from law enforcement for materials would be routed through transition lawyers.

Loewentritt said the transition was informed that by using government devices, the agency wouldn't hold back records from law enforcement. Transition officials signed agreements that warn them that materials kept on the government servers are subject to monitoring and auditing, he told Buzzfeed, and there's no expectation of privacy.

The documents were provided to Mueller's team by the GSA in September in response to requests from the FBI, but the transition wasn't informed at the time, according to people familiar with the transition organization. Officials with Trump for America learned last Wednesday that GSA officials had turned over the cache of emails to Mueller's team.

Among the officials who used transition email accounts was former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who pleaded guilty to a count of making false statements to FBI agents in January and is now cooperating with Mueller's investigation. Flynn was fired by Trump in February for misleading senior administration officials about his contacts with Russia's ambassador to the U.S.

It's unclear how revelatory the email accounts maintained by the GSA will be for Mueller. Several high-level Trump advisers sometimes used other email accounts to communicate about transition issues between Election Day and the inauguration.

Mueller's spokesman, Peter Carr, and Flynn attorney, Robert Kelner, declined to comment. Jay Sekulow, an attorney on Trump's personal legal team, referred questions to the transition group. Spokespeople for GSA didn't immediately respond to AP's emailed requests for comment.

The media site Axios first reported on the transfer of the emails to Mueller's team.
 
More evidence of Trump's penchant for fake news; make that outright lies.

He claims that he ended the war on Christmas, something that never existed. He claims that Obama never said, "Merry Christmas."

He lied, as usual:
