By Trump supporters and the usual right wing websites...and that's it.
That's the thing far righties never learn, they exist in a bubble. In 2012, they denied polling numbers, they were whipped into a frenzy over multiple Obama "scandals", and yet...they were wrong on everything. Nobody came for their guns, nobody sent their family to Fema camps, nobody took away their right to practice Christianity, and Obama won in a landslide.
It's a brilliant ploy though. We report the real news mainstream media won't tell you. The mainstream media is corrupt. The system is corrupt. All these bad things are going to happen. Then when none of it pans out: The media hid the truth from you again, the elections are rigged, the status quo will do anything to stay in power. See? Just like we told you!
FBI Director James Comey told lawmakers Friday the bureau is reviewing new emails related to Hillary Clinton's personal server, a development that shook her campaign 11 days before the election.
That's CNN. Seems like the only ones not thinking this is a big deal are the huffpost types, meaning the hard left.
Everybody knows she's a crook, but that's normal in politics so no eyebrows lifted there. Of course they covered it up people think. But now they're bringing it back up, at the worst possible time. That's not supposed to happen. Not part of the narrative. It really doesn't matter what you or I think, if it's in the media it matters.
The Hillary is a criminal theme dominates, right as we're approaching the finish line. It's huge and could potentially turn a lot of people holding their nose for Hillary from voting, which to be honest is a lot of people.

This isn't a game-changer because both are already known commodities. The problem for Trump is he's a shitstain on humanity, and nothing can change that.
I early voted like many people, so while Trump supporters will think this changes things, it really turns what was turning into a blowout into a closer race. Hell, Obama was ahead by 1 or behind in some polls at this time in 2012.
It's a game changer because the narrative just shifted. FBI is selling out Hillary, and if she goes Obama goes. It's so huge even those in the media deep in the tank for Hillary have to put it on the front page. Opening a criminal investigation against a Presidential candidate 11 days before the election? It's a head shot.
There is no criminal investigation. There isn't even an investigation. They are considering if the new info even warrants more action.
They are reopening the case barely a week from election day. Face it, your horse is having a very bad day.

You've got to be kidding me! This turns you around? You've learned nothing new about Hillary.

Never take it off.
Doing a favor for Trump is a dubious motivator though. There's no telling if he'd just go after them anyways like he said he will. Better to stick with the plan and gamble with Hillary. Unless Trump was winning really big. Limiting the damage perhaps.
And of course I really want to believe that the lower ranks have had a fit of conscience and forced this, but that just sounds so fairy taleish.
The last option is the worst. The government wants Trump in the chair.

They can't reopen a case officially, that's admitting that they horse traded with Obama and Hillary. With "new evidence" they can spin it like they've cracked a former cold case.
#1069 Re: The Garden » US Politics Thread » 498 weeks ago
Hence the surprise. This implicates Obama as well, so it could get really ugly. Why do that if you care about your job? It's not honesty because they already cooked the investigation once.

Funny stuff tho all round - the confusion of what is being investigated, why now & her ineptitude & inability to keep it in her pants, so to speak, must be a trait she picked up from Bill.. fuck, can you imagine how much damage this should do? Jeez, these two candidates make Dubya seem.. well no, they don't he was still a clown!
If only the US was a democracy and had more than 2 parties...
Yeah, that is working real well for us over here!
Surprising move this. Could be they are anticipating a Trump presidency and are covering their bases. For sure they wouldn't do this knowing Hillary's wrath in 11 days.
