Trump prepares charge sheet against Clinton

Donald Trump’s team is hunkering down to draft the charge sheet the presumptive GOP nominee will unveil against Hillary Clinton on Monday, intent on laying out a credible general election argument that leads voters to question her trustworthiness.

Senior campaign advisers beginning to focus on the speech cast it Wednesday as “all about pivoting to the general election.”

But many Republicans worry that the former reality TV star’s penchant for focusing on the Clintons’ personal lives and scandals of years past — he declared them “fair game” months ago as he bulldozed to the finish line of a Republican primary — could undermine the more disciplined case party leaders have been making against Clinton for a year — that the Democrat’s email controversy and actions in Benghazi show she is too irresponsible to be commander in chief.

--------------------------------------

“Trump’s advisers believe Hillary has three major vulnerabilities,” a Trump insider said Wednesday, referring to alleged “epic corruption of the Clinton Foundation” and exorbitant speaking fees, which the source dismissed as “payoffs and bribes”; Clinton’s tenure at the State Department and lingering questions about the 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya; her use of a private email server; the nexus between the State Department and the foundation; and Clinton’s efforts to “discredit and intimidate” women who might have been involved with her husband.

Hillary Clinton may not be the butcher of Benghazi

Yeah she is.

Also, she can wear Waco, and the Arkansas/Canada prison blood scandal, where thousands of Canadians were infected or died. It seems Vince Foster knew all about it.

I think we will all get a good laugh at how the media will spin the charges Trump makes against Hillary. This will further smoke out the traitors on Fox News.

Emails in Clinton Probe Dealt With Planned Drone Strikes

At the center of a criminal probe involving Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified information is a series of emails between American diplomats in Islamabad and their superiors in Washington about whether to oppose specific drone strikes in Pakistan.

This "charge sheet" has to be succinct and well defined; not something like the Clinton "body-count". Anyone who was really into politics when bill was is in office knows they were masters of muddying the waters by utilizing "limited hangouts" and a willing media to play along. The list should be short, within memory of the voting populace and using the same tactics of the left "its the seriousness of the charge". His campaign can float other issues exactly like they did with the la raza judge, make an accusation, get piled on for a week and watch the truth come out when people start digging deeper into what Trump is such a (pick your anti-term) only to be broad-sided by him being right; again.

just my $0.02

The "more disciplined" Republicans are pure cowards. They have betrayed veterans, the military, families, and hard working Americans - while allowing a racist and lawless Barry Hussein to do whatever he wants through "Executive Order."<

This is Satanic. This is New World Order evil. The "Republicans" are not our friends. They need to either unite behind the real Americans or get behind us.

Racks, and racks and racks and racks.

Well, that's good too, and maybe some beer.

Dream on, politico. Most of us have been relishing this moment. And wouldn't be necessary if you would have done your jobs..

A thought from a friend:
Since she refuses to release a transcript of her speeches,
Is she using the same one again and again and again ?

Who would know? Different people at each event?

Paid by word is very high !
