I wish the four dead in Benghazi had gotten so much attention from the left.
I was waiting to see how long it took for Benghazi to make an appearance. We've seen the obligatory "but Clinton" and "but Kennedy" so now all that's left is a few "but Bush's" and a reference to Hitler and we're good.

So you are advocating for the hacking theft of a US citizen and/or a US government official by a foreign government?You need to read the transcript of FBI director Comey's testimony to Congress. The server with the 30K deleted emails was wiped and they cannot be recovered by the FBI. The deleted emails included thousands related to State Department business. The emails to which Trump was referring cannot be hacked. So neither he, nor I, can be understood as advocating or hacking of the deleted emails.
Hillary said her server was not hacked. But if it was, I advocate for return of any previously hacked contents to the United States. I further advocate that if any foreign governments are harboring hackers who have possession of the material, that they cooperate to have the information returned to US government.
Are you opposed to return of previously hacked Clinton server material to the US?

I guess you're right. A joke about emails or a lie about an attack and four dead.

I saw the Trumpsuit one on FB a few days ago and was trying to find it elsewhere to post in response to your earlier Kaufman post, but could only find it on Facebook (which never seems to work for posting here, at least for me anyway)

You do know that he is playing you and the idiots in the media? People are stupid but they aren't that stupid. Getting a full transcript of what was said is pretty simple. Twisting his words and pretending to be SHOCKED will only win him more votes. Either way, Trump or Clinton we get an idiot in the White House.
Now may I suggest that you go back to watching the DNC Convention. Maybe more discussion of environmental justice and white privilege will make you feel good. Or maybe just re-watch Billy's speech. Just don't fact check it, neither Clinton seems to be able to tell the truth.

That said, the leader of the free world shouldn't be ambiguous unless he intends it. Words/video clips can be twisted by foreign demagogues as easily as lefties, for populaces that might not have access to the full transcript.

Trump is going off the rails. I guess "I'm being sarcastic" is the grown-up equivalent of "I was just kidding." Or something.
I was going to say he can't keep his deleted emails straight, but on further reading it appears that it is just typical Trump rambling from one "thought" to the next.

“Of course, I’m being sarcastic,” Mr. Trump said in the interview taped Wednesday that aired Thursday morning. “But you have 33,000 emails deleted, and the real problem is what was said in those emails from the Democratic National Committee. You take a look at what was said in those emails, it’s disgraceful. It’s disgraceful.”----------------------------------

I'm going to assume that since you're 3 posts in and have yet to talk about the content of the article that you completely agree with it. Excellent. Now are you ready to have an adult conversation about it?
