I am not suggesting the Secretary Clinton go to jail ffs. I said someone has to. I was addressing the another post - she agreed to a closed hearing because the alternative was going to jail so they negotiated. My disagreement is not with Clinton, it is with the another poster.

Do we really think that the Trump administration can be trusted? They agreed to not arrest her? So they won't? I said you can't negotiate with terrorists.

I don't know what Clinton's thinking was. But the idea that we should compromise with MAGA under the threat of being arrested...doesn't that idea bother you, too?
