Trump/Russia v. Clinton/DNC

Collusion is the key word in both of these cases

If Trump colluded with Russia to influence the general election, then shouldn't Clinton be held to the same standard for influencing the Democratic primary?

Is somebody going to legitimately try to argue the point that what Trump did was actually illegal while what Clinton did was only unethical?

If you're a Democrat who condemns Trump for colluding with Russia but gives a free pass to Clinton for colluding with the DNC, what are your actual values? Obviously not protecting democracy.

he has a point though

some people are not being held to the same standard as others

which is why i would like to see tad devine in jail for his role in russiagate

bernie's staffers need to face punishment for stealing clinton's campaign data too

and bernie and jane need to go to jail for bank fraud

Lol you and your tired right wing lies.

No one stole any data from the Clinton campaign.

No malfeasance occurred at the University Mrs Sanders ran.

But you are sounding more and more like a republican of late... not unlike the rest of the establishment Democratic Party.

Coincidence? I think not!

Both of them successfully subverted American democracy; Trump in the general, Clinton in the primary

Sanders supporters were detailing what was happening as it was happening only to be met with accusations of being conspiracy theorists. Now we know the full extent of the truth, and it's much worse than even any of us thought. What I find interesting is the argument has switched from first denying the evidence and calling Sanders supporters conspiracy theorists to now accepting what was happening, just trying to justify it as business as usual, or condemning Sanders as an Independent, so he never really deserved equal protection despite the DNC Charter and Bylaws. Neither did Lincoln Chafee, Jim Webb, or Martin O'Malley.

But remember Pad, Trump is still all your fault.

What Trump did was actually illegal, what Clinton did was typical dirty politics.

Collusion isn't actually a crime, obstruction of justice is.

Also, did the Clinton campaign have the equilvalent of a Manafort, a Flynn or a Papadopoulos working overseas?

How do you think Bernie Sanders would answer that OP question?

I think he'd throw up.

If you're really worried about protecting democracy, then you wouldn't want a racist shitbag in the white house who started his political career insisting Obama was born in Kenya and getting a multimillion legion of racist shitbags to follow him into hell.

Don't give me that shit about jobs, I hear these Trump people talk. Jobs wasn't why they voted for Trump.

Love how you call attention to what's criminal and completely ignore how both subverted the Will of the People.

Apparently, Democracy is not your priority.

Both Trump and Hillary destroyed their own parties in the last election. But repubs are stuck with Trump, for now. Dems need to rebuild the party now without old guard, and this would give them a big advantage by 2020. Harry, Debbie, and Hillary are now basically done and Pelosi would be smart to step aside so a new dem party can take shape. An ugly process both parties will have to go thru, but repubs can't begin until Trump is impeached or beaten.

Throwing an election by whatever means during primary contest, dirty politics?

THROWING AN ELECTION..let those words sink in and tell me how 'legal' it is.

If this were the case, we wouldn't have a voting process, period.

The only reason you're not screaming was because SHE was YOUR choice.

Had the shoe been on the other foot?

Actually I did support Bernie and when he lost by such a wide margin only fools would claim rigged, I wasn't upset with the idea of a Clinton presidency because they weren't all that different from each other.

lol

Pelosi should step aside, even though she's most likely unbeatable in her district and stepping down would subvert the will of the majority who elected her. Sanders supporters are so undemocratic.
