Bill Clinton met with AG Loretta Lynch privately in Phoenix

[Starbuck1975]

You literally keep posting ad hominens. lol. You could try facts, but I see you've failed there. Carry on flailing, it's amusing.

I’ve responded to those who offered points worth refuting. If you insist on carrying buckets up a hill you’ve already lost, who am I to stop you. Carry on waterboy, I enjoy hearing the clanging of your buckets.

Now you're just copying me? This is too good, please keep going!

Poor waterboy, coming to fight a battle that was already lost in a necro thread.

Lost battle, haha
So when can I expect the Clintons to get charged & convicted by the Presidents justice department. It has been 3 fucking years, two of which Republicans controlled all three branches of Government.
I’ve been hearing about all this horrible stuff they do for decades. Should be easy to prosecute & convict them right?

 

[mect]

You created an exaggerated contrast to rationalize your own confirmation bias by using a whataboutism scenario that is no way reflective of what happened and how this and other self inflicted wounds damaged the Clinton campaign.

Lynch didn’t recuse herself over a ketchup packet.

Yeah, she really did. If you think otherwise, please post some evidence of wrong doing in this encounter beyond the optics.

Your ketchup packet was spread on one of the many nothingburgers that cost Clinton the election. If the optics are bad, that means the encounter is wrong. How the encounter leaked to the press, and the response to it, made the optics even worse. That is the only evidence required.

She lost, get over it

It would be but the Clintons are both incompetent in their criming so Republicans know all about it (the drug running, the murders, the selling out of America to the Illuminati, etc) but so devious the GOP can never get any evidence despite actually being able to depose direct witnesses, obtain actual source documents, and investigate for the better part of 20 years.

We all had this girlfriend(m/f).
Throws a fit and does something stupid.
Her explanation : I only did it cause you did *whatever*, thus its your fault I broke your car.
Its the theorem of Starbucky, never having to take responsibility for anything in your life : Cause others.
Be a fucking man for once in your life already. Jesus christ.

They believe all the evil things about Hillary because of targeted lies, compounded on each other, for decades.
The core belief is thus a core truth.
Not once could such people ever take responsibility for accepting the roundly-proven lies that have created the fake version of the person in their minds. Not once.
Hence, Hillary did this to herself--not by being the person that I believe she is, because she isn't--but that doesn't matter because I believe the things anyway and that's only her fault; not mine or the dedicated team of lifelong assholes that invented this belief in my head.

That's how the GOP has operated for decades now.

It sounds like you are just confirming everything I've said. If you don't think bad optics and stealing ketchup packets are comparable in severity relative to robbing the McDonalds and what Trump and Barr have been involved in, you're entitled to your own opinion, but to me it appears its your own confirmation bias that's skewing your perspective. You are the one after all that is trying to equate something that just looked bad with something that is actively undermining the checks and balances in our government.

Hey, just think...if the plane meeting never happened, all those people who voted for Trump in PA, MI and WI would have voted for Clinton. Is this the event that put people over the top not voting for her? *facepalm*

Not only that...If the plane meeting never happened, Trump and Barr would be perfect little angels and wouldn't be attempting to drive a stake through the heart of law and order.

Barr and Trump wouldn't be breaking the law, openly and repeatedly. All those subpoenas and summons for witnesses would have gone through. His Giuliani back channel wouldn't have existed. Barr wouldn't have lied to the American people about what was in the Mueller report violating his oath and making him unfit to hold his office. He wouldn't be carrying out his personal religious agendas. Just generally being Trump and his cronies "do what ever you want get out of jail free waterboy". But hey... Everyone else is the waterboy for yawning at the the excuses given for the people who voted for Trump even though this one instance had little effect on why people voted for Trump. When are all these waterboy's who voted for Trump going take responsibility for electing Trump?

I don’t know about all that, just look at his scathing responses to Barr’s actions in this thread:

DOJ reverses decision on Roger Stone tough prison sentence after Trump anger tweets

Prosecutors were going to suggest 7-9 years. More abuse of power. DOJ is supposed to be independent of the executive when it comes to investigations, prosecuting and sentencing. Remember when Barr was question by Kamala Harris if Trump ordered, hinted suggested or inferred investigating a...

How does any of this change the outcome of the election? It doesn’t.

I never equated the two. I am also not the one whatabouting in a necro thread.

Being gaslighted for decades has rendered them incapable of making rational decisions. It all comes down to truthiness.

What’s I like is how in the NYS drivers license thread he invented a conspiracy theory about how Andrew Cuomo was directing the state AG he has no power over to attack Trump. Then when there’s a thread about the current president doing exactly that he’s silent.

He just lives for concern trolling. That’s his shtick.

Hypocrite as usual. The optics are bad here as well, you're just in denial.

Le Whoosh! You missed the whole point of the resurrection.

Lol remember when righties were so concerned about an ex president meeting with an AG during an ongoing case?

Has anyone seen that same concern with regards to Barr and trump from righties?

I wonder where moonbeam is, perhaps he’s still out on his high horse./eye roll

He’s totally oblivious that he’s been making my point the whole time! Lol!

The only point I see is sour grapes and whataboutism from the usual waterboys

@Starbuck1975 lets stop dancing around. Should a current or former President interfere with the Justice Department or are they allowed to apply pressure to the justice department?

I have, I’d like it stated in a way that is easy to understand
