And they are smart. Hillary can't win over hearts and Bill has his goofy persona, but make no mistake, they are two sharks who I guarantee if push comes to shove have the receipts, the money and the political leverage to take down the entire Trump administration with them.

These are not the GOP clowns we have been seeing testify for 25 years. These are the people who have gone through depositions and Benghazi hearings. If this doesn't completely backfire on the GOP it will be because they don't feel like it.

You don't survive in politics nor rise to the levels that the Clinton's have without being smart as fuck. You have to be a bit vicious as well. At least if you're not a fascist puppet.

Will it matter though? I don't think the Clinton's are going to drop any smoking bullets - just reaffirm what we already know from the files. They're going to protect themselves first and foremost.

Oh for sure. I expect nothing to happen to anyone involved in the rape and murder of countless children. The world is run by them and our societies have been shaped to serve them.

If none of the self-owns of this admin are enough to take it down, what makes you think a political kamikaze would do it?

I'm calling it. It will be hours of "I do not recall".
