Didn't every pretty much "assume" that Lynch was in the bag for Clinton, and that the DOJ would do everything they could to avoid any prosecution of Clinton? Does it really come as a surprise that Lynch would have micromanaged Comey on that investigation, even down to how it was talked about?
At least that is the way most of the people "I" know thought about the situation.
The only difference between then and now, is the concept that doing so would actually have been illegal. I don't think anyone really saw it that way prior. You could vote her out (which we did)... but accuse her of criminal actions because she made partisan decisions in her job? I don't know.. the idea that you could accuse an Attorney general of a crime based on the way they handled a politically polarizing case wasn't really something anyone talked about.
But in today's environment of criminalizing political disagreements... anything is possible.

I thought of it that way. But no path for Justice with too many Clinton operatives among the political appointees in the Justice Department.
The fact that it may be thought of as criminal now, as opposed to then, reflects a considerable improvement. Lynch needs to be dragged over the coals by the way. It needs to be made crystal clear that you don't operate with impunity just because you're temporarily in a position of power. Whether you're an FBI Director, Attorney General, or even President.
What a wonderful sound, "backfire".
It really is so fun to watch what President Trump has done to the Left, they are just inconsolable.
how cute is little rock'n horse riding WP?

it wasn't talked about for one very simple reason -
lynch was part of a democrat administration.
to contrast, look at what jeff sessions has been put through so far. there's not a shred of evidence he has done anything wrong, yet he's been raked over the coals, pulled in to testify before committees, and slandered with every nonsense allegation you could cram the word "RUSSIA!!!11!" into.
lynch's behavior is acceptable behavior as long as she's serving in a democrat administration.
How Illinois became America's most messed-up state
Jun 29 1:49pm:
Politicians are notorious for making promises they can't keep. But they really outdid themselves in Illinois -- and now the state is paying for it."
Yep, if you now live in Illinois, that is not what the former Lost Years prezididn't calls home, then get ready for skyrocketing taxes.
I hope President Trump does not bail out Ill like he did CA.
IF YOU EVER WANTED PROOF WE HAVE A NUTCASE IN THE WHITE HOUSE, HERE IT IS
Trump Plots a Global Trade War
Mike Allen: “In a plan pushed by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, and backed by chief strategist Steve Bannon (not present at the meeting), trade policy director Peter Navarro and senior policy adviser Stephen Miller, the United States would impose tariffs on China and other big exporters of steel. Neither Mike Pence nor Jared Kushner weighed in either way.
“Everyone else in the room, more than 75% of those present, were adamantly opposed, arguing it was bad economics and bad global politics. At one point, Trump was told his almost entire cabinet thought this was a bad idea. But everyone left the room believing the country is headed toward a major trade confrontation.
“The reason, we’re told: Trump’s base — which drives more and more decisions, as his popularity sinks — likes the idea, and will love the fight.”
ANOTHER CLEAR EXAMPLE
Trump Calls for Immediate Repeal of Obamacare
President Trump tweets this morning:
“If Republican Senators are unable to pass what they are working on now, they should immediately REPEAL, and then REPLACE at a later date!”
Jonathan Swan: “It’s literally the opposite of what then president-elect Trump told Paul Ryan after he won the election and shortly before Congress went into session. Part of the reason why the House GOP leadership didn’t run with a clean repeal vote, as they’d done many times under President Obama, was because Trump had made it clear to Ryan he wouldn’t sign the bill.”

What a sad life you live. Idiot.

Yep, our lady poster acting like the psychotic child president still expecting a different result from the often repeated post. You really need to get out more. Idiot.
Who said this?????
President Trump’s tweet about MSNBC hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski sounds like something from a banana republic and is how Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez and the Philippines’ Rodrigo Duterte would talk about their opponents.
“[I]t degrades the political discourse and it embarrasses the country. Presidents
