Donald Trump took to Twitter with his usual bombast in response to FBI Director James Comey's recommendation that charges not be brought against Hillary Clinton for her handling of classified information in connection to private email servers.
"The system is rigged. General Petraeus got in trouble for far less. Very very unfair! As usual, bad judgment," the GOP's presumptive nominee tweeted.

I agree it’s a great opportunity for Trump if he capitalizes on it, quickly, and if GOPe can keep their nevertrump mouths shut.
Yup. And never underestimate these Feds’ desire to protect themselves first, and — most importantly — protect their big-ass government pensions. The country be damned.
It’s a dark day in American history when the FBI makes a case against @HillaryClinton & then recommends no charges.
The point was to make them do it.
Now the reason for the meeting between Bill and Lynch is apparent. He was told the FBI would be speaking this day and all was right with his corrupt world. Oh well. Whatever!
Sounds like bribes didn't work (like it did with Roberts), so they resorted to making him an offer he couldn't refuse.
I sympathize with what you’re recommending in regards to Trump’s reaction, however we have become a slothful nation of takers who just want promises of free stuff. Its a very powerful and intoxicating allure for them that requires no effort except to cast a vote. People are now addicted to government largesse and dependency. That’s going to be a huge hurdle for Trump to overcome (i.e., find enough responsible voters who want to make America great again). A very tall mountain to climb.
That is what I have been thinking. What are their excuses going to be after this for not getting in line and supporting Trump?
At the convention, every day, the Trump camp should put up a judge to pick apart this opinion by the FBI head and then make the case why she has committed crimes against the US.
If Trump can't used the "T-word" (Traitor) in describing the Demonicrat presidential opponent, then he's not worth putting into office.
Rush correctly predicted last week: The fix is in... We're being played, folks.
We're a banana republic now. It's official.
Yeah, it will be interesting to see what Judge Jeanine has to say. For months she has been saying Comey was a man of honor.
walking off the podium without answering questions from the press is actually becoming more commonplace.
DHS official was grabbed by the arm and pulled out the door by one of his associates rather than answer questions last week.
So, I thought all along that they would find a way to dump Hillary and then go with Slow Joe, who would be a better candidate. He's like the lovable grampa to half of America, who don't know what a lefty tool he really is. Obama could have used the FBI to accomplish that switcheroo. That he didn't tells me that Bill Clinton's threats, whatever they were, were enough to make Obama arrange this whitewash. That golf game where Clinton was giving Obama the what-for was probably where it started. The Lynch meeting was the final decision, perhaps with some promises thrown in.
It's depressing, especially when thinking how so many fought so hard for our beloved America.
Tell ya what, those idiot never Trump pukes are all over twitter banging on the red star used in his ad/tweet - they are hopeless, each and every one of them is completely and utterly hopeless.
Sad day for America and what a spotlight on Comey, a man with NO honor. Spit
I hope Trump says that under his administration, corruption will be investigated and prosecuted, and that these sweetheart arrangements will end. He doesn’t have to declare that he will prosecute Hillary, just that his FBI will look at cases with fresh eyes without regard for political consequences. Contrast that with what the nation gets with HIllary, a descent into lawless oligarchy.
“GET OFF THE GD TWITTER AND HOLD A PRESS CONFERENCE...GEEEZ USE YOUR BRAINS...SO DUMB AT TIMES...”
Yes. Let’s hope that SOMEONE in his campaign figures that out!
He should resign.
Only the most naive believed Hillary would be indicted.
And you can really believe anything liar Joseph DiGenova says with a straight face?
She was always going to get off. Its not the evidence that matters nor even the seriousness of the charges.
And hiding personal records is an even less egregious an offense than perjury.
