Democrats should ask Clinton to step aside

Has America become so numb by the decades of lies and cynicism oozing from Clinton Inc. that it could elect Hillary Clinton as president, even after Friday's FBI announcement that it had reopened an investigation of her emails while secretary of state? 

We'll find out soon enough. 

It's obvious the American political system is breaking down. It's been crumbling for some time now, and the establishment elite know it and they're properly frightened. Donald Trump, the vulgarian at their gates, is a symptom, not a cause. Hillary Clinton and husband Bill are both cause and effect.

DYI: Oh please - give me a break - Donald Trump is NOT politically correct - and is unafraid to speak his mind.

This can't be about pervert Anthony Weiner and his reported desire for a teenage girl. But it can be about the laptop of Weiner's wife, Clinton aide Huma Abedin, and emails between her and Hillary. It comes after the FBI investigation in which Comey concluded Clinton had lied and been "reckless" with national secrets, but said he could not recommend prosecution.

DYI:   The author almost gets there - yes she lied - but now the activity is out right criminal with putting state secrets - to hid her criminal behavior - from freedom of information inquiries!

 If ruling Democrats hold themselves to the high moral standards they impose on the people they govern, they would follow a simple process: 

They would demand that Mrs. Clinton step down, immediately, and let her vice presidential nominee, Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia, stand in her place.

DYI:  High moral standards.  More B.S.!  Let me translate - they know from real insiders eyes only polls she is going to lose and lose big.  The only way she can win is through MASSIVE voter fraud which has already been verified with several states having machines voter flip to Hillary.  To justify the scam Hillary needs to go.

Since Oct. 7, WikiLeaks has released 35,000 emails hacked from Clinton campaign boss John Podesta. Now WikiLeaks, no longer a neutral player but an active anti-Clinton agency, plans to release another 15,000 emails.

DYI:  More total bull crap!  When WikiLeaks released damaging emails surrounding the Bush administration they were seen as doing a great public service.  Now that the shoe is on the other foot the author, John Kass, attempts to paint them as anti-Clinton agency but does NOT dispute their authenticity.  Are establishment Republicans corrupt?  Yes they are and Democrats as well.  Its their turn in the hot seat [Democrats] and the roasting has just begun.

What if she is elected? Think of a nation suffering a bad economy and continuing chaos in the Middle East, and now also facing a criminal investigation of a president. Add to that congressional investigations and a public vision of Clinton as a Nixonian figure wandering the halls, wringing her hands.

DYI:  Bingo - a direct hit.  And a bit of honesty stating a "bad economy."  This is why Trump has such large crowds - as husband Bill stated when running against Bush senior, "its the economy stupid!"  The electorate with the labor participation rate at 62% or 94 million citizens unemployed - the main stream of voters to put it politely are pissed off!    

But what will Hillary do? 

She'll stick and ride this out and turn her anger toward Comey. For Hillary and Bill Clinton, it has always been about power, about the Clinton Restoration and protecting fortunes already made by selling nothing but political influence.

DYI:  You're on the right track John but you don't go far enough.  The reason Democrats want her to step down when a full blown investigation takes place this will go further than play for pay but outright treason selling of military secrets to any country willing to give her donations to the Clinton Foundation.  Democrats as a party will be held in disdain for one or two generations.

 She'll remind the nation that she's a woman and that Donald Trump said terrible things about women. If there is another notorious Trump video to be leaked, the Clintons should probably leak it now. Then her allies in media can talk about misogyny and sexual politics and the headlines can be all about Trump as the boor he is and Hillary as champion of female victims, which she has never been.

DYI:   Notorious Trump Video?  Sliced and diced audio - so called victims from 35 years ago - or how bout the porn star who started her on line sex toy shop looking for free publicity.  Give me a break!   

The second part I'll give you credit for the main stream press are Hillary Clinton's allies. Actually the corporate press are no longer news organizations but outright lobby organizer's for their GLOBAL CORPORATE/GOVERNMENT MASTERS! 

If you take a step back from tribal politics, you'll see that Mrs. Clinton has clearly disqualified herself from ever coming near classified information again. If she were a young person straight out of grad school hoping to land a government job, Hillary Clinton would be laughed out of Washington with her record. She'd never be hired. 

As secretary of state she kept classified documents on the home-brew server in her basement, which is against the law. She lied about it to the American people. She couldn't remember details dozens of times when questioned by the FBI. Her aides destroyed evidence by BleachBit and hammers. Her husband, Bill, met secretly on an airport tarmac with Attorney General Loretta Lynch for about a half-hour, and all they said they talked about was golf and the grandkids.

DYI:  These last two paragraphs are "spot on" that in essence Hillary Clinton is spoiled goods and is totally unfit to run for dog catcher let alone President.  What is also interesting President Obama knew about the private servers as well.  Did he participate sending classified material onto non government servers to hide freedom of information requests as Hillary?  Time will tell.  If Trump becomes President will he "drain the swamp" by bringing down an ex President?  I would hope so along with many of their cronies as possible and if this ropes in Republicans then so be it!
