1. Who doesn't delete emails?

Junk email is more prevalent than junk snail mail. Thirty-thousand is just a number. If they are all from a Nigerian banker asking for $500 to collect an inheritance, thirty thousand means nothing.

3. the problem is the emails are a very complicated story that can easily be spun to look like

something nefarious was done. Ultimately it should be a non-issue.

But FFS, how many times did Trump say "the 33,000 emails"? It was insane that he kept repeating that number.

6. In college we took a class on interviewing suspects

there was a guy who came in who does statement analysis the number 3 and the number 5 are the numbers that investigators flags, in statements because for some reason people who give untrue statement use those the most often. I am just saying it's interesting that lying Donald picked 33,000 and the lecture came back to me.

7. for me, the emphasis on the 'c' was the most galling

it means CONFIDENTIAL, not CLASSIFIED.

there was no CLASSIFIED information on the server, it was NOT compromised, and congress spent millions turning over rocks on this already, and wasted FBI resources forcing an investigation. for naught.

there is no story, but they're making it sound like treason.
