Re: Hillary. I am really torn. I’d like to see her finally receive any deserved justice, but I would also love to see Donald run against her.
Clinton was at a Iowa fund-raiser for Hillary .. Low energy, no effort. He failed at raising enthusiasm in the select audience. I agree, that golf-course meeting was part of the pre-coverup.
Now? They are letting her bleed out, but don’t want to be seen doing it.
Exactamundo!
Probables:
- The FBI is ready and has an airtight criminals case
- Hilary has something on Obama
- The DOJ can and will stall until after the election
- Unlike previous GOP nominees, Trump and Cruz will hammer her on this. Bush would not.
- Obama will pardon Hillary at some point
In the mean time, what happens with the FBI and further leaks and resignations, Sanders, the general election, and a possible GOP president, can’t be predicted.
Bernie is George McGovern and Eugene McCarthy rolled into one. The socialist wing of the Democrat Party had been a menace to society for over 40 years. We defeated them in 1968 and 1972 and we will again.
This is quite plausible to me. Could explain the meeting with Sanders also.
Wonder whether they have the goods on Bill's exploits on Pedo Island as insurance against any reciprocal leaks about Obama the Clintons may be threatening him with. That may explain the golf outing. Talk about a testicle lockbox.
Wouldn't that be rich, doubt Bill would jeopardize himself to protect Hillary. After all she's put up with in hopes of being the first woman prez someday.
Not to mention Bernie’s published fiction about women secretly longing to be gang raped ...
Wow that is a scary scenario. Let's pray they do make a big stink about it. Maybe Trump could really show how he leads, and BUY one!
Add:
Protections for classified materials become totally worthless;
Moves to make security classification moot andall information public;
Mass resignations of people who once protected this nation.
Oh yeah? FBI will take their walking orders from Obama! FBI won’t do anything to Hillary! But they’ll go to Burns, Oregon and shoot a cowboy in the snow. FBI & BLM & Obama Admin are Puss filled spores!
They have to go with Biden in this case. They have no choice. Maybe they will try to bring back his condescending, chuckling, Paul-Ryan-debate persona, put him on the late-night comedy shows, and sell him to younger voters as the wiseass the White House has always needed.
When I put on my tin foil hat, I see them having a major split between the two very weak candidates, making them fight it out, only to broker a convention at the end where crazy Joe and the fake Indian are nominated, or a wweakened Hillary wins and has to bow out due to health reasons.
The two worst candidates are done in, and will look bad at the end of their campaign. Crazy Joe and the fake indian can then come in with little negative exposure, the hope being these two can fake out enough people to get a win, or at least help the base keep the other downstate races from being a slaughter.
Hillary will only be their candidate if they think the other two can't handle it.
/tinfoil hat
A third possibility: an underling falls on his or her sword for Clinton, taking the rap, etc.
got a “year” with that?
Pretty good. There's political risk for Obungo in delaying, but he always puts off difficult decisions excepting only where he has a chance to demagog.
My guess is that this recent flurry of rumors is because the WH is stalling further progress and the rumors are warning shots telling them to not interfere.
The WH has two tracks: if they can keep a lid on it, they will. He can pardon Hillary after she wins the election as a "national unity" move. If this involves giving the FBI the Ken Starr treatment, they'll do it. Might even require an 1864 style nomination of a VP from the other party (Yeb!?)
Track #2: if they can't keep a lid on it, then they employ your scenario - but time is getting short on that one. Their substitute candidate would need time to develop momentum well before the convention.
The wild card, of course, is FBI leaks. Is it only resignations or would there be document leaks?
Wow...I did not know that a Pardon could also amount to a magic invisible blanket that a President can put around anyone for any reason....even absent any formal charge in place.
Since the FBI is expert at breaking people down, I suspect that they will gut Clinton’s campaign by pulling in/interrogating her inner circle....offering them immunity....all without making any recommendation to indict Clinton herself.
Obama can, however, still fully immunize her, as Ford did Nixon, even in the absence of any charges
Same dream that I have! Hillary behind bars has a nice ring to it!
Nothing will happen to Hillary-——nothing.
The Clintons are Teflon.
