Does anyone remember the 2016 presidential election? I know that with all the things that happened in 2020, 2016 feels like a century ago. I made myself physically, mentally, and emotionally ill with all the twists and turns of Trump vs. Hillary. I lost a bunch of friends, constantly argued with some yokel on Facebook. What a heavy time. I remember it. Eventually, I stopped paying such close attention, and I think it was for the better. I haven’t heard a word Rachel Maddow has said in years, and it’s great.
However, I did watch the news today, and it really made me think. I’m going to talk some shit about Trump, but don’t let it make you think that I don’t know what a terrible candidate Hillary was. Just awful. This is one of the reasons I’m not a Democrat. Look at what they did to my boy Bernie. The DNC establishment seems to have some aversion to winning. Eventually, you have to let go of someone who refuses to help themselves; it’s too painful.
Let’s go back to the number one reason why Hillary was unfit to be the next president and a traitorous crook who should be wearing an orange jumpsuit. Ahh yes, the private email server she had while Secretary of State. What could be more insecure and provide more access for our enemies to all the secrets that keep us safe? This isn’t a rhetorical question because I’m going to tell you the answer.
Here it is: leaving boxes of classified information in the ballroom of your tacky resort where people can pay to have their tacky wedding or bar mitzvah. People can literally pay money to be in the same room as state secrets. What’s to stop ISIS, Hezbollah, or North Korea from getting someone to act like they want to have a wedding and take a little peek at all the intelligence? You might notice I didn’t mention the Kremlin when listing possible bad actors accessing the files. That’s because I suspect Trump was personally delivering intel to his boy Putin in a gift basket with those delicious Lindor chocolate truffles that I love so much. Of course, these are not verifiable facts. I’m an opinionated person with a keyboard and Wi-Fi, not a journalist.
Ballroom vs. email server. Have you ever tried to log into Gmail without your phone ?C’mon, man.I’m not saying planning a wedding at Mar-a-Lago is easy; I’m saying it’s probably easier than getting into Hillary’s email server.
How could these people, who are definitely still going to nominate this guy as their presidential candidate, lack the self-awareness to see the big tacky glass house they are casting stones from?
Why do I insist on trying to make logical sense of these people’s thought process? Why did I watch the news this morning? Very good questions.
The trumpers were always chanting “lock her up”, right?It was one of his greatest hits. Yes, definitely, that i agree with. Lock them all up, lets do a page one rewrite of the whole thing.
You could buy me a coffee, I’m not allowed to have any more coffee today, though…I've had too many.
