Cankles would have to voluntarily step down as the Rat nominee for them to replace her - she likely has the goods on too many Rat Party leaders for them too attempt a Coup D’état and take the nomination from her. If she has FBI files on 900+ GOP types, it would be safe to say she has an equal number of FBI file information on Rat types.
The only way I can see Cankles walk away now and leave the race is if she is promised a full blanket pardon from Obama, should Trump win, for any crimes she may have committed from the time she was sworn in as Secretary of State thru the date of her last sworn Congressional testimony after she left the State Department, so that she cannot be charged for any perjury she committed in sworn testimony to Congress after she left the State Department.
She would likely also seek assurances that slick Willie and her close aides Abedin and Mills also get some protection from any future prosecution by a Trump appointed Attorney General.
This would likely be one of those infamous late night pardons Presidents issue on the 19th of January, just prior to their leaving office on January 20. It would be similar to the full blanket pardon Nixon received from Ford in 1974 after he resigned, for any crimes he may have committed while in office.
It has been said part of the reason she is running is to assure she stays out of prison.
My point though is if she leaves they lose. If she stays, they probably lose big.
“It has been said part of the reason she is running is to assure she stays out of prison.”—Question of escaping punishment through a Presidential pardon becomes neccessity if a change of the guard occurs.
“There are always alternatives.”—Spock...What form of retribution when partisanship negates rule of law???
