It's a trick the GOP learned long ago, especially regarding the Clintons. You don't actually need proof of anything, you just have to scream wild accusations and insinuations all day every day, for months and years, so that eventually the total lack of any evidence or follow up doesn't matter, it just sinks into peoples heads that it seem like every time they hear about them it's in relation to another "scandal", and surely that means they must have done...something.

Juuust when people had forgotten about him saying Heather Heyer asked to get run over by being violent and that there were Good Nazis, he tries to bring it back up. Bravo, Donald, bravo.

Just ranting about how the debunked uranium deal means she deserves the electric chair for treason. BUT HER U-DEALS has become the newest Republican mantra. The party that said "Get Over It" unsurprisingly seems incapable of getting over Clinton themselves after they went for the booby prize.

A lovely mess.

I don’t understand why I’m supposed to be scandalized by the concept of opposition research.

In that case should people have really gotten their panties in a bunch when Trump Jr did his own opposition research?

DNC hires research firm.

Donald Jr. meets with lawyer with links to Russian government based on claims that the Russian government has secret information about Clinton.

Totally the same.

Statues that were erected in the mid 1900s not to commemorate the Civil War so much as to tell blacks to Know Their Place are historical now?

Museums, and memorials are for preserving history. Statues in the public square are for glorifying a cause. When the cause is the preservation of slavery, it is not worth commemorating. When that cause is a bloody civil war, caused by acts of treason, in the name of preserving the institution of slavery, it is not worth commemorating. It is also telling that most of the statues coming down were erected decades after the civil war, conveniently around the same time as the birth of the 20th century KKK.

This also ignores one of the Confederate generals being openly opposed to erecting the monuments in his own time.

I look at statues and I think about the history they fought for not if they should be glorified or not. Even if you want to move it from that spot it sad, because it's been there for so long and the people around it have grown accustomed to seeing it and remembering.

Isis destroyed historical artifacts there. Historians who were caught sneaking artifacts out were tortured and executed.
