In reply to the discussion: I know we have bigger fish to fry right now but I think this revelation by Rep. Adam Schiff [View all]FakeNoose

I still can't figure it out because there's no comparison between Hillary and Trump.
Even if I didn't like Hillary (and I do!) I still would have taken her over Trump in a heartbeat.
But now that things have calmed down and there's been some time to reflect, I think some of the Clinton-hate was also directed towards Bill. I think people didn't want to see Bill back in the White House, and nobody was sure what he'd be doing if Hillary were president. So it's entirely unfair, and nasty and regrettable.
Trump's so unfit for the job it makes me sick to think about it.

OP
What I don't understand is when did Flynn make his statement? Why was it not shared with public?

But did the Benghazi Committee have this or know this and smeared Hillary anyway?

A lot of the hate is sexist but considerable numbers chose to believe the fake news and smearing.

It could be they hate her for not being phony, for not bowing and scraping, ingratiating.
