Kudos to George Stephanopoulos for asking James Comey why it was ok to announce that Hillary Clinton was under investigation, but not Donald Trump.
Comey's answer to Mr. Stephanopoulos's question needed a follow up question, however. Comey basically stated that Trump was not under investigation, that it was people around Trump who were under investigation.
But this begs another question, why was a private citizen allowed to go less scrutinized, perhaps even unscrutinized versus a public official?
The Clinton emails in question were several years old. Why wasn't Trump being investigated as well? And wasn't Bernie Sanders also being investigated?
And, was investigated the right word? Wouldn't the word vetted have been the right word to use? "The FBI is vetting all the presidential candidates…"
Anyways, if Hillary Clinton had been elected president, she might have been under incredible pressure from the Progressive wing of the Democrat party AND the Neo conservatives who have come to hate her, that I am no longer sure she could have gotten anything done of note as president.
There is too much web money to be made hating on Hillary Clinton, and Hillary Clinton does not appear to have the gift of feeling the pain of her supporters. If she had felt her supporters' pain she would have used her time off after being Secretary of State and prior to running for president to try and heal wounds and mend fences. Plus she should have gotten in better cardio shape so her physical fitness would have impressed the younger generation.
DailyPUMA guesses that Bill Clinton told Hillary Clinton to lay low and avoid public scrutiny and be a doting grandmother, not realizing that even that sage advise could backfire if it meant not being involved in Clinton Foundation on site projects, getting into good cardio shape, and possibly avoiding the lucrative wall street talks or at least instantly donating most of the money to Clinton Foundation projects.
And Bill Clinton should have accepted an annual salary for running the Clinton Foundation and then used stats to show that his salary as head of the Clinton Foundation was lower than any other Foundation head in terms of ratio to total money raised, or lower than the top 1000 Fortune 1000 businesses. Asking Clinton Foundation donors to then make a separate donation to fund Bill Clinton is not against the law, but it allowed for Clinton detractors to make it seem both scandalous and against the law.
Perhaps Bill and Hillary's biggest mistake was not confiding enough in Chelsea Clinton, who probably would have made the right call on Hillary Clinton's path to the White House, if only she had been asked and have her observations respected.
