The Gloves Are Off: Trump Accuses Hillary Of Being "Involved In Corruption ...

Complete Headline: The Gloves Are Off: Trump Accuses Hillary Of Being "Involved In Corruption For Most Of Her Professional Life"

It's popcorn time.

Barely 24 hours after Trump launched his first Hillary attack ad in which he showed a laughing Putin respond to a barking Hillary, and shortly after Hillary's SuperPAC responded in kind with an ad of its own in which it used a Trump quote to mock him, the gloves are officially off, and now that both presidential candidates - both convinced they will face off against each other - are beyond the foreplay stage, the gloves have come off and the direct attacks are escalating rapidly.

So rapidly, in fact, that one may say Trump is risking a potential lawsuit with the following accusation (which, however, should not be too difficult to prove should one of Hillary's SuperPACs sue him for libel).

This is what Trump tweeted moments ago.

Hillary Clinton has been involved in corruption for most of her professional life!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2016

This is more than your typical political ad hominem - this is a material allegation with legal implications that goes to the core of Hillary's biggest weakness, her trustworthiness or complete lack thereof, and Trump's charges will only escalate from here on out, hopefully with actual examples. We look forward to Hillary's response.

One thing is certain: for the next six months, America will be entertained.

It would be very funny to see these uniparty slaves tripping over their johnsons to defend Hillary as an honest public servant!!!!! Bring it, DC. PLEASE DEFEND HILLARY’S HONESTY. It will be like watching someone build a Cadillac out of Kleenex.

D1, you couldn’t have found another way to say that? I’m not sure there are any men who COULD get ready...

Nope, just show he didn’t intentionally or recklessly lie.

Her skeletons are exactly WHY the oligarchy is forcing the media to pretend she is a normal candidate for President. They know they OWN her a$$. She was of all the candidates the easiest to own. But she is also the easiest to blackmail by anyone because of the same corruption.

I think yours is the best post to convince people (not freepers, just the general public) to vote for Donald Trump. I’d like to see it made into a YouTube video.

Yes, discovery. Clinton doesn’t dare go there. Trump knows this and is setting the rules of the game.

Are you saying “whinge” like “hinge”? Or “whine” like “fine”? Just curious.

I went to read it after seeing your post as I am not sure that I can hold my nose and vote for Trump. In my opinion the post was weak. It left me asking, “How does she know our children and grandchildren will be better off?”, as nobody knows what Trump truly believes as he is playing a populist game with us all. Frankly, his and his followers boorish behavior is not what I desire my children and grandchildren to be exposed to, much less be accepted as normal. I’ve held my nose for McCain and Romney, but I am unsure that I can do it for Trump. The devil I know and all that...

Don Trump, I need a man who has powerful friends. I need a million dollars in cash. I need, Don Trump, those politicians you carry in your pocket, like so many nickels and dimes.

No he’s in a political campaign. Sooner or later he’s going to have to back his claim up.

You almost sound regretful that he’s going after Hillary. Very strange indeed. You Cruz supporters are truly a sight to be behold.

“Are you saying “whinge” like “hinge”?”

Yes. It’s a slang word. Means: complaining.

If she wants to bring a lawsuit good luck to that. In civil depositions and trial testimony she won’t be able to cackle “what does it matter.” lol.
