Bizarre: Clinton Mocks Trump For Wanting More Secure Military Communications

Just weeks after the FBI issued an indictmentless indictment of Hillary Clinton over her “extremely careless” behavior using a private email server to both send and receive classified information, the Democratic nominee has decided it would be funny to mock Donald Trump for wanting more secure military communications.

Trump argued last week during a campaign rally in Colorado that using paper wasn’t so bad since everyone is getting hacked these days.

"Everybody's being hacked," Trump said on Friday. "Let's not send it over the wires so everybody's probably reading it."

"I like the old days, especially for the military and things like that," Trump said. "You want to attack or you want to do something, it's called [a] 'courier.'"

"It's called, 'Let's put it on a thing, put it in an envelope and let's hand it to the general,'" he continued.

This prompted a sarcastic response from Clinton suggesting Trump use “carrier pigeons” instead. 

Why not carrier pigeons, @realDonaldTrump?https://t.co/lNrJcakpJW— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) August 1, 2016

What a bizarre issue to attack Trump on given Clinton’s own problems with secure communications as secretary of state, not to mention the recent hacks of the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee as well as her own campaign.

Its a shame Cankles can’t visit Liberia, and then die of Ebola there.

When security is tight you can not make money selling secrets.

Hillary attacks Trump......given Secy Clinton’s problems with secure communications concerning state secrets, not to mention the recent hacks of the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee as well as her own campaign.....this is truly bizarre.

The more damaging the info on her, the more she keeps on laughing and laughing......must be taking happy pills.

I read somewhere that the largest purchasers of typewriters in the world are security agencies. Hmmm.

makes sense to me 90 percent of communication that is done is not pertinent communication that needs to be instantaneous. there is great deal of e-mails that I imagine are top secret that a courier could carry for diplomats. how much of the e-mails that Clinton did was just talking about facts that both parties were aware of.

I have fond memories of the “Stop the Pigeon” cartoon ..... he overcame all odds to safely deliver his dispatches. A real carrier pigeon would have been more secure than Hilly’s “welcome hackers” server.

She can say things like that knowing she is one of the untouchables.

Where IS Hillary? - Is she hiding behind the curtain barking
orders at her Lapdog Media over her old-fashioned intercom?!

For someone who thinks wiping a server means wiping it with a cloth, carrier pigeons are probably where she’s at.
