I agree. It looks vindictive and even banana-republic-ish to go after a defeated political opponent. (I'd still think the door would be open for civil proceedings against the Clinton Foundation.) It would arguably be a distraction and IMO the two Clintons are done for politically at this point. They are really both too old and too sick to run again. Chelsea could be pardoned -- which wouldn't help her political career outside of New York State, or, if not, prosecuted for her role in the Clinton Foundation.
But I don't know why Obama couldn't pardon all Clintons and all of their operatives for "any and all crimes, known and unknown".
I disagree. Open threats to prosecute are not camaign slogans. He said he would prosecute and he should.
What looks like a banana republic is when gov’t officials put our nation at risk to fatten their wallet. And then continue to look the other way. I don’t want to live in that kind of banana republic. I want law & order and personal responsibility. If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. She’s not too big to jail. She’s arrogant and went too far her entire life. It costs lives.
