On a different note, I’ll continue to reiterate what I mentioned earlier about being distrustful about politicians in general.
Remember: no matter how good or bad or beneficial or dangerous that they may be 99% of them on the whole, these days, or never to be blindly, trusted, an hour, to always be held to scrutiny, no matter what side of the coin they are on.
Yes, even if more on the other side need to be held to more scrutiny over actions they have done, it still doesn’t change the level of scrutiny that the other side should be held to, if the both of them were otherwise equal in terms scrutiny levels that they deserve, which is automatically very high, by default.
Nobody who is truly savvy about politicians in general, how things go down in practice, and have gone down in practice should ever lose sight of that.

You seem to misunderstand me. I don’t trust most politicians, but at least use legit reasons. Her forgetting to tell her secretary to stop deleting old emails doesn’t point to anything malicious when she cooperated with the investigators otherwise from my understanding.
Another thing that you and others seem to also forget is never blindly take a politician’s word for anything, either.
This is exactly the same kind of mistake that Americans made when they trusted how the government handled Vietnam, when they reelected Nixon, and when they put their face until Washington over the Iraq War, the War in Afghanistan, and the War on Terror.
If anything, the old Cold War adage absolutely needs to be followed every single time: “Trust, but verify.”
It really is the only way, no matter who else or what organization tries to scream otherwise at you, at the top of their lungs.
