Trump: I'll prosecute hillary as president

MickeyW said:
Donald Trump said Monday night that he believes Hillary Clinton will likely get away with her use of a private email server while she was secretary of state, but said that as president, it's only fair that he'd look to prosecute Clinton.

Fox News' Sean Hannity asked Trump in front of a live Nevada audience if his attorney general would go after Clinton should an investigation find she broke the law while serving in the Obama administration.

"You have no choice," Trump replied. "In fairness, you have to look into that."

No I'm not! A President has vast power to turn the screws on other people, to do all of that! You really think he can't apply pressure in numerous ways to others? Really?

If a president is turning screws to force others to commit immoral acts it is a gross misuse of power. Think about that. If Obama were turning screws to force others to do what he says would that sit well with you? Hell, I can even ask when Obama has, and not even to the extent you are describing, have you been ok with that? Furthermore, what amount of screw turning do you think can happen to make illegal immigrants stop coming into the US? What amount of screwturning do you really think is going to make Americans pass laws making it illegal to be a certain religion? That goes against everything this country was founded upon. There is a reason every president who has walked into office has had success and failures in terms of what they want to have passed. They is a system of checks and balances. Trump does not have the support in any congress, even a right wing congress, to pass the bull**** he claims he will. The president is not God. The president is not a dictator. Come down to reality.

obama has lied about all kinds of stuff and has put pressure on a lot of people to do what he wants. Any President can.... and have. Gitmo today is one example! obamacare is another. Fast and Furious another. Gun control still another.....obama is a bully.

Same for Clinton...tying up all kinds of forest lands and set aside for monuments and off limits to hunters, fishermen, back packers, etc.

Nothing immoral about anything Trump has suggested! Take the blinders OFF!

At this point I am pretty sure you are just messing with me. Your argument has digressed into Clinton tied up lands for monument means that Trump is not immoral? I don't think there is any conceivable way that any rational person can make that connection.

Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. So often seen emanating from the ill-educated right.
