I guess anyone could associate with the deepstate cabal if they were blackmailed, threatened with death, coerced, drugged and filmed, honey-pot baited, family was threatened, whatever pressure could be applied., etc.
Don’t forget who had at least 300 reported FBI files, including many top republicans because of a “completely honest bureaucratic snafu”

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
June 10, 1996
President Clinton conceded Sunday that the administration mistakenly obtained the FBI files of more than 300 people, including many top Republicans, in late 1993 as the result of a “completely honest bureaucratic snafu” involving security clearances.
His chief of staff, Leon Panetta, told reporters that “obviously a mistake was made” and apologized to the people whose FBI files wound up at the White House. Clinton did not apologize directly, but said “I completely support” what Panetta said about the affair.
SNAFU named Craig Livingstone. I think the final number of files was over 1,000 - supposedly. HRC corrupting a chunk of the upper FBI / DoJ {& above?} to escape justice might raise some eyebrows.
