If there was anything of importance in the emails Republicans could have used against her they would have which means they would have leaked that information and hammered Hillary over it and started another investigation into the specifics of whatever they found. Just like the Benghazi investigation lead to the email investigation.
Because they didn't find something, they couldn't make it about a something they didn't find.
Quote:I disagree because the issues are not the same.
The issue with Hillary's emails was about whether she was mishandling classified information in a way that it could be intercepted by foreign entities.
The issue with Trump is that he shared classified information and people are saying he shouldn't have shared it even though they don't know what the information is that he shared.
We don't need to worry about Trump's classified intel being intercepted by foreign entities (the Russians) when Trump invites the Russians to the White House and tells the classified intel to their face.
So how come it doesn't matter what Hillary may have inadvertently shared with Russian hackers, but it does matter what Trump intentionally shared with Russian government officials?
