Democrats groan after Bill Clinton meets Loretta Lynch
Politico ^ | 6/30/2016 | Louis Nelson

Attorney General Loretta Lynch described her Monday meeting with Bill Clinton aboard a private plane as “primarily social,” but even Democrats are struggling to stomach the optics of the attorney general’s meeting with the former president while his wife is under federal investigation.

Lynch said she and Clinton talked only of grandchildren, golf, and their respective travels, but the fact that the two spoke privately at all was enough to rekindle concerns about a possible conflict of interest. Republicans have long called into question the ability of a Democratic-led Department of Justice to conduct an independent investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, based inside her Chappaqua, New York, home, during her tenure as secretary of state.

Once news of their meeting on the tarmac at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport broke, Democrats made clear that while the meeting was likely as innocent as Lynch described, it did not give the Justice Department the appearance of independence.

Other articles imply that Clinton boarded a plane that was waiting for Lynch, i.e., it was “her” private plane, not “his”. So whose private plane was the Attorney General using and why? What conflicts of interest could there possibly be in that...?

Loretta Lynch doesn’t have any children. Her husband has a couple.

She probably had a few but they got vacuumed out and sold in little pieces.

Clinton getting onto Lynch's plane was clearly an attempt to influence. Lynch not immediately kicking him off is some combination of:

1. Stupidity (she's too dumb to see this is totally inappropriate)
2. Corruption (she is willing to be influenced)
3. Careerism (she's hoping to work for Hillary)
