“We Cannot have a President who is a Subject of an Ongoing Criminal Investigation”..

[cow451]

As an Australian, what is your definition of "We"?

What you mean, “we”, Kemo sabe?

 

[cow451]

I agree we cannot have Hillary for President.

We agree on that. Now, what about the current Criminal in Chief?

 

[cow451]

The Op isn’t about Trump, it is clearly about Hillary.

But she isn’t President.

 

[cow451]

It also works against Clinton - Bill, that is....

Ok.

 

[cow451]

Remember he's not a criminal until being found guilty in a court of law. No charges have been brought forth to show criminal activity. Your bias and hatred and ignorance are showing.

Hillary has no “wants or warrants.”

Ah, but that wasn’t the yardstick the good Judge used, was it?

She says that you can’t have a President who is a subject of an investigation...!

Donald is a subject of several investigations...

 

[JackRT]

Actually, Trump makes Hillary and Bill look good. When it comes to who really does illegal activities.

And when it comes to being a very effective, successful president Bill Clinton makes Trump look like ------ well, what Trump looks like.

What crimes

We agree on that. Now, what about the current Criminal in Chief?

What crimes has he been charged with? Has the FBI come forward with a list of criminal offenses?

 

[rjs330]

Hillary has no “wants or warrants.”

However the FBI did say she committed crimes. They listed them.

I was responding to accusations that he's committed crimes. I disagree that a mere investigation makes someone unfit. That's patently ridiculous.

My bad. I meant Grifter in Chief. Thank you for catching the error.

cow451 regrets offending anyone whose feelings were hurt by this misstatement.

 

[cow451]

However the FBI did say she committed crimes. They listed them.

As you have noted, what crimes has she been charged for?
FWIW, I’d be quite happy to see Ms. Clinton and Mr. Trump in matching prison attire.

We know from his daily behavior he is unfit. But that isn’t sufficient to remove a Tweeting President.

Just as the Southern District of New York has identified Trump as a co-conspirator in election fraud....

Hmm......and so far the investigation has not led to any indictments against the man. It is and always has been a fishing expedition. A president shouldn't ever not be allowed to be president because of a fishing expedition. Wait for criminal charges and a trial first. That's how it should be.

We don't know if there would be indictments, were he not President -- so the fact that there are no current indictments is meaningless. Instead, it is simply because the Justice Department has a policy (followed by much of law enforcement in the US) that sitting Presidents are not to be indicted -- the believe that it should be up to Congress to decide what the crimes are, and if there is evidence, and impeach him if necessary (at which point he can be criminally indicted). I'd caution people, on both sides, to wait until the Mueller Report is released before claiming "victory."

What is more interesting, though, is how the Trump controlled Justice Department -- headed by an Attorney General (even three of them) that were appointed by Trump -- and Hillary has still not been indicted. That no charges have been brought at this point, the only explanation is that they do not have a solid case against her, they do not believe have a good chance of conviction. And to be clear, that is even with a Trump appointed Federal prosecutor, and very possibly a Trump appointed judge.

Seems to me we wouldn't have so many ongoing criminal investigations if the president didn't surround himself with ongoing criminals.

 

[TLK Valentine]

The Op isn’t about Trump, it is clearly about Hillary.

Why didn't she just say "We cannot have Hillary as president"? Why create a double standard?

 

[Pommer]

Why didn't she just say "We cannot have Hillary as president"? Why create a double standard?

Of course, when she said it, nobody was expecting not to say “Madam President” no matter how much it choked them...because they would have accepted a Hillary Presidency with humility and grace.

 

[rjs330]

We know from his daily behavior he is unfit. But that isn’t sufficient to remove a Tweeting President.

That is your opinion. Saying "we know" implies a fact. You are stating an opinion and opinions are not facts. You are entitled to believe he is unfit, but you don't really "know" he is.

 

[rjs330]

As you have noted, what crimes has she been charged for?
FWIW, I’d be quite happy to see Ms. Clinton and Mr. Trump in matching prison attire.

She wasn't charged with any crimes despite all the crimes she committed. They were listed you know. The FBI told us she committed crimes. The fact they never submitted them for prosecution is another matter entirely.
