ROTFLOL... Disastrous? No... it would be WONDERFUL.

Comey made the case against Criminal Hillary, then let her off the hook by using the word “intent”.

Many people convicted of crimes have claimed they did not intend to. Hillary intended to. Everyone knows she intended to. Like the scorpion is born to sting, behaving criminally is in her character.

Hillary coming out and opening her yap on this was the worst things she could have done in her defense. She generates little to no sympathy, and everyone knows she is a criminal who is the beneficiary of a 2-tier justice system.

Corrupt politicians need be locked up to deter future corrupt politicians, and because they are not above the law.

If you desperately want Clinton prosecuted for something, regardless of the facts and evidence, yet don't want Trump prosecuted for anything, regardless of the facts and evidence, it just might be you who has NO MORAL COMPASS.

Keep fantasizing, the rest of us won't hold our breath and Mueller's investigation continues.

Is Mueller's investigation prohibited from investigating leads that lead to Hillary?

What is the actual crime that is being investigated by the Mueller investigation?

No, if it leads to Hillary she'll be prosecuted. So far there's no indication it will so its just your own wishful thinking.

For the scope and content of his investigation, I'll let you read up on that yourself. If you need more information you can call or write him. Either way the justice system doesn't bend to the will of the politically motivated just because Breitbart told them there's a conspiracy afoot.

So far there is no evidence that trump has broken any laws.
there is a whole ton of evidence that Clinton broke the law.
Comey spent 30-45 minutes laying out all the evidence.

Unfortunately Come chose politics over doing his job. He should be charged with obstruction of justice.

I think Trump supporters just refuse to accept innuendo as truth. Refuse to convict the POTUS on MSM “proof” from anonymous sources, as an example. I seriously doubt there are Trump supporters who will excuse any illegal behavior on his part for partisan reasons. We are nation of laws. And few conservatives would be willing to give Trump a pass because of their political beliefs. Really. True conservatives just arent built that way.

The more innuendo? The more MSM piles on? The more a conservative tends to dig in his/her heels to fend it off. We tend to do the same exact thing when cop so-called wrongdoing hangs someone before the facts are out... when lives are ruined by sometimes baseless accusations... and many other instances of what may be guilty until proven innocent scenarios.

If nothing else, most conservatives, true conservatives, live by our laws and respect them. Those that would really give someone a pass because of their political beliefs are, IMO, far and few between.

Just MVHO...

OK, grab a lawyer and sue Comey and the government, good luck. Trump and many in his administration have already been caught using private cell phones and servers yet you have no problem with any of that. Unless you're ready to retroactively arrest all of the previous secretaries of state like Colin Powell who all did the exact same thing your cries of "lock her up" ring hollow. The justice system is not a weapon for you to use against your political enemies. You've already convicted Clinton in your mind so there's no arguments that could be made. Mueller will keep his investigation going despite your cries.

There's no universe in which a President ordering the DOJ to open an investigation into his political rivals isn't an abuse of power.

They didn't transfer classified material over did they? also they have turned over all of their emails for records.
so there are your 2 strikes so far.

Nope colin powell did nothing wrong because there was no such law at the time that is strike 3. before going on a rant you should know what you are talking about.
Nope it isn't.

it exists to arrest people that are breaking the law.
We have evidence and enough of it to show that clinton broke the law and if it had been anyone else they would have been thrown in Leavenworth.
and for your information her hubby fired the head of the CIA for taking classified data home with him.

he was stripped of his security clearances.

it isn't an abuse of power. the DOJ is part of the executive branch and under the authority of the president.
Obama was constantly directing his DOJ i didn't hear you complain about that abuse of power.

If you believe that the President has the right to order investigations into political rivals, then you don't know what abuse of power is and you're regularly confused about why people laugh at banana republics.

Oh, and do tell about Obama ordering the DOJ to investigate his political rivals. This I've go to hear.

no the president has the right to order and investigation into wrong doing and law breaking.
you don't seem to know the difference.

clinton broke the law. it is obvious to anyone except for political hacks that she in fact broke the law.

while she might not have gotten prison time the minimum sentence for mishandling of classified data is
being stripped of your security clearances and not allowed to hold office again.

Oh, so you mean a sitting President can find a pretext for opening investigations into his political rivals? I totally did not see that coming. If only I had known in advance that rationalizing a bad act was something a human being might do, because absolutely nobody has ever rationalized a bad act in the history of civilization.

As I said, you're obviously confused about why people laugh at banana republics.

And again: do tell about Obama ordering the DOJ to investigate his political rivals.

It has nothing to do with political rivals that is a red herring argument.

Do you agree or not agree that if the law is broken the person should be properly investigated?
it is that simple. You either believe that all or under the law or that we are supposed to have a 2 tiered justice system.

Trump's an idiot for doing this. All it's going to do is give her more clout and make her even more immune than she already is to being looked at legitimately. I hope Mueller takes them both out ASAP...

If you really believed the horse**** you're typing you would have backed up your claim that Obama ordered the DOJ to investigate his political rivals.

you still dodged my question which was expected.

Do you or do you not agree that if the law is broken that a proper investigation be conducted?
or do you believe in a 2 tiered justice system as long as there is a D in front of their name.

you should check your own posts before commenting on other peoples. your TDS is still out of control

The "Obama Justice Department" is a cutesy way of acknowledging that Obama didn't order it. It would be like saying "The George W. Bush-administration 911 attack."

Your second link does the exact same thing, and it's worse because it's an opinion piece.

The Daily Wire? Oh, Jesus Christ...

Try again.

They're not digging. If you haven't been paying attention they've already brought charges against two former Trump campaign officials. Just because you want that to go away doesn't mean it will.

I know you read a blog alleging some conspiracies and you're mad, but the justice system doesn't work on your emotions. Feel free to gather evidence and get the investigation going.

I couldn't identify an actual crime that started this investigation myself.

It appears that you cannot do so either.

That's only one of the very many things that makes this investigating so interesting.

I find it interesting that the Republican controlled Federal Government is attacking the Republican President by this method as well as so many others.

Just shows, AGAIN, that we do not have two political parties. We have one establishment political organization that strives to maintain its power.

Trump is outside the fold and is therefore a target of the two halves of the establishment party.

Has there been a Democrat President attacked by his own party while they held the majority in both Houses and controlled the White House?

I can't seem to recall this having happened. Maybe you can recall an example.

I'm not sure who told you that the media can convict someone but that's wildly incorrect. If Mueller brings charges he has a reason to do so and will have to prove it in court. Justice is blind to the emotions of the hysterical.

If the investigation is happening under a republican government then it's either got substance or you should be blaming the republicans for eating their own. Just because Trump has a majority doesn't mean everyone in his administration is immune from prosecution for crimes. That's not how it works.
