While I mentioned in my previous post the fact that the Republicans had a debate about security, and then that Donald Trump made an appearance in Mesa before running to California to appear on the Jimmy Kimmel show, I did not discuss any of the politics that were raging all this week.
The Democrats have a debate if you can call a monologue a debate this coming Saturday night in New Hampshire. I have not listened to any of their debates since they are literally a joke. Either Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton will dominate and the guy from Maryland whose name has not yet clicked in for me to recall may put in an appearance for all I know.
This is what the politics is about: 1. Should Clinton who broke the law by having taken home business on her own personal server instead of using the government's server be eligible for the candidacy for president or not? Who in the Democratic party will charge her for her inexcusable conduct? Supposedly, the FBI is investigating to see how many documents could have been placing the security of the nation in jeopardy. Classified or declassified information is the cause for the search into her old files. The point is that she exercised poor judgement in feeling that she could use her own personal server to conduct government business. She should be found negligent and culpable for wrongdoing regardless.
So for all practical purposes, her run for the office of presidency may become another Nixon Watergate story. Only, if elected of course, but it will not ever be put to rest by the Republicans as they will not let the Benghazi affair be forgotten.
But obscuring all of Hillary's problems is the rise of Donald Trump who has developed a very strong following from people who like his strong, sound leadership. In his followers opinions who are are quite vocal and firm in their decision, he can do no wrong.
Polls are not always to be trusted, but crowds often are. Most people will not stand in line to see a candidate unless they are supporting him all the way to the White House. Donald draws crowds better than a circus can. People are really taken in by his sincere appearing politically incorrect statements.
More on this later....
