No, two can’t. As of right now, I’d rather have the worst Democrat in office than the best Republican. Until they clean their own house, they don’t deserve to how power. As for Clinton, her and her husband are cumulatively more moral and honest than any 10 Republicans put together.

Although she later clarified that she’d like to enact it via diplomacy. So aldiboronti is completely full of shit.

I can see how that’s easily confused with “I want to shoot down Russian planes.”

He has spent so much time around Republicans, some of it has rubbed off on him.

FBI Director James Comey argued privately that it was too close to Election Day for the United States government to name Russia as meddling in the U.S. election and ultimately ensured that the FBI’s name was not on the document that the U.S. government put out, a former bureau official tells CNBC.

Harry Reid is not trustworthy. He’s also not _wrong_.
